Hi there.Can you please tell me how to do the following:

1) How to change the favicon
I’ve tried searching for this topic, but I’m really confused where it says about changing file names

2) I’d like to change some wording in the wishlist
it says Francis A More, and I’d like to change it to Francis Amore (altogether)

Can you please tell me how to change the above

Thanks,
Matthew

Hello,

1. You need rename the icon /wp-content/themes/blanco/images/favicon.ico and upload your own with the name favicon.ico to the directory /wp-content/themes/blanco/images.

2. Go to WP Dashboard > YIT Plugins > Wishlist > Settings > Default wishlist title and edit your title.

Best regards,
Jack Richardson.

Hi Jack. Thanks for your reply
I’ve done number 2, but really not sure what you mean on number 1

How do I rename an icon and how do I upload my own to the directory /wp-content/themes/blanco/images.

Thanks,
Matthew

Hi Jack. Do you mean I need to re-name the file and then add a new one in the cpanel? If so I’ve just done that and it’s still not working

Thanks

Hello,

I would like to change my favicon using a child theme. What coding would I have to add to the .css file of my child theme in order to do this?

Thanks,
Monique

Hello,

Your forgot to provide us with FTP credentials. We need them to log on server where your site placed.

Also you can try do it yourself. Please navigate to /wp-content/themes/blanco/images/ folder and put your new image as favicon.ico file.

Regards,
Robert Hall.

Robert,

For now, I have changed my favicon as suggested above; however, I would like to avoid having to do this every time the theme is updated. Therefore, I have created a child theme with other updates to the Blanco theme that I want carried forward.

I have already uploaded my favicon to the images folder of my child theme and just need to know what coding to add to the .css file of my child theme to override the Blanco theme default favicon.

FTP credentials are included in private content.

Thanks,
Monique

Hello

Please check ftp credentials because we cannot connect to ftp. Maybe you have some restrictions on host.

Brian,

I checked my FTP credentials, and they are correct. I also turned off my security plugin last night for you. See additional info in private content that may help.

Hello,

You need copy header.php file from parent theme to your child theme and copy the favicon image too.
Then in child header.php edit this code <link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri().'/images/favicon.ico' ?>" /> and instead of <?php echo get_template_directory_uri().'/images/favicon.ico' ?> write the url to your favicon image that you placed in child theme folder something like http://your_domain.com/wp-content/themes/blanco-child/your_favicon.ico.

Best regards,
Jack Richardson.
