Would you know how to add a favicon to my site?
It's not possible to add it the the root.
I see the site already has a favicon, but I dont know how to change it, and I can't find the original photo in media.
I'm working on the site with no access to the server itself. Only through the Umbraco system, which doesn't allow putting a photo in the root (under DK page)
This is not a content editor's job in general, but I see you're looking into Umbraco.
Someone else can correct me but I don't think it's doable like this unless the devs have implemented a way for you to do that (maybe a textarea where you can put in html and a media picker for the actual file?)
I don't think it's doable like this though.
Feels like you need to talk to the devs to get some answers. There needs to be a favicon in the root of the folder structure on the server (not in Umbraco) and if that exists, a media picker that you get to pick the icon media folder.
How you get the media-url is up to you. You can either hardcode it, or make a field on a page somewhere.
We have a "settings" node, where we have a mediapicker for this image.
Add favicon
Hi guys.
Would you know how to add a favicon to my site? It's not possible to add it the the root. I see the site already has a favicon, but I dont know how to change it, and I can't find the original photo in media.
Thx, Gitte from Denmark.

It's no different for Umbraco.
Why is it not possible to add it to the root?

I have a feeling you are very right. :-(
Just kicking up an old post, for future-readers I guess :)
Looking at the screenshot, you've got access to the developer settings and the templates.
You could upload an image (svg or something) to the media.
In your masterpage, you can add the following tag in the , with a link to the uploaded media: (from the given stack overflow example)
