Change favicon in Robohelp HTML 8

Question

Hello everyone,I need your help!I want to change the default favicon that is generated and replace it with my own. I created one with the same dimensions (48x48) and saved it as whstart.ico replacing the original in my project's folder. I also tried by changing the default whstart.ico from the following location:C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 8\RoboHTML\WebHelp5Ext	emplate_skin.Neither of these ways worked. Could someone point out what i am doing wrong?Regards,Kate

Well I tried the lowercase solution and did not work.

@William

I used an png to ico converter before replacing the original ico.

However i also tried the second option with the addition of the attribute and the original png file just in case but no icon at all.

Thank you both for trying! If you have any other suggestions please let me know.

Thank you guys for sharing your ideas and trying to help me.

I managed to find a solution.

I replaced the original code:

<!--

var sIcon="whstart.ico";

var sPath=document.location.href;

if (sPath.indexOf("http")!= -1)

document.write("<link REL=\"SHORTCUT ICON\" href=\""+ sIcon +"\">");

//-->

with the following:

and it works great!

Hi,Did you replace the original in your output folder or in the project itself? Also, what do you see in the browser with your new icon: Do you see the old icon or don't you see any icon at all?Greet,Willam
