Question

i got an Website with Typo3 and i generated a favicon and put it online with typoscript. But when i open a pdf, that can be downloaded at my site, the standart typo3 icon appears. How can i change this?

Answer 1

This is not really a typo3-question. The cache of favicons is very persistent. If you ever opened the download with the old favicon, in most cases, this issue appears. Try to delete the whole browser cache, visit the page with an other browser or enable private browsing and try again.

Answer 2

Make a real ico (not png), name it favicon.ico and put it into your web root. Then load the ico via www.yourserver.com/favicon.ico and see if it works now.
