Fix for "missing" favicon

Well, not exactly missing favicon, but having your own favicon replaced by Blogger favicon. There had been many complaints about this at favicon for your blog as well as at a newer post free favicon generator and host and I myself experienced the problem. Thanks to the alert by "The Adventures of MYK Jones", the favicon is back.

Fix for missing favicon

Just move your codes for the favicon from it original position in the template to just after ]]></b:skin> and just before </head>, preview and if everything looks all right, save template.

Actually, I left the original code for the favicon in its original place and copy-paste to just after ]]></b:skin> and just before </head>

This is how that section of the template looks like after the fix:

]]></b:skin>

<!-- iconj.com dynamic favicon code -->
<link href='http://www.iconj.com/favicon.php?user=manature' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/x-icon'/>
<link href='http://www.iconj.com/favicon2.php?user=manature' rel='icon' type='image/gif'/>
<!-- end of iconj.com dynamic favicon code -->

</head>

Fix for "missing" favicon for old classic Blogger template

If you are using the old classic Blogger template instead of the New Blogger xml template, go to blogger.com (Dashboard) > template > Edit HTML and look for

<$BlogMetaData$>

and paste the favicon codes immediately after <$BlogMetaData$>
