Favicon generator
#1
Hello,

Not really off topic, but not really a problem ...

I just came across Real Favicon Generator while looking for information on Apple icon sizes.

It seems to do a pretty good job of providing all the icons you need, for all platforms, from a single image file. As well as a .zip of the icon images and support files, there's a code snippet to place in the <head> of the template (in place of existing icon lines).

The only drawback is that it works best if the icon files are in the root of the site, rather than in the theme directory (which is where most GS themes put them), but I guess that most sites don't often have the theme changed.

Additionally, the IE-specific browserconfig.xml is blocked by the default GS .htaccess file, so add this after the <Files sitemap.xml> stanza:
Code:
<Files browserconfig.xml>
    <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
        Allow from all
    </IfModule>
    <IfModule mod_access_compat.c>
        Allow from all
    </IfModule>
    <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
        <IfModule !mod_access_compat.c>
            Require all granted
        </IfModule>
    </IfModule>    
</Files>

Much easier than working through all those sizes manually. Have fun. Wink
