Add this to the head of your page.

You first, shitlord.

And do you mean this place?

Just upload it to the root directory of your site. Browsers will request it automatically.

Ok how do you find the root directory/ folder?

Oh no im totally lost.

Gr8 b8 m8

Yes

It did not seem to work, do I wait awhile for it to work?

bump

I don't think you even need to do that, anymore. Just put favicon in the folder.

Which folder is that?

Your dropbox folder.

System32

Do you want me to delete System32?

oh fuck I can't even reach da site mon.
I don't know why I got Jamaican there.

bummp

b b ump

literally just put a file named "favicon.ico" in the websites' root

see
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon#File_format_support
for format support and directly under it, the ways it can be used

Ok, there we go, after applying some glue, I was able to stick the icon onto the url.

But seriously one more thing, im on hostbaby, and how do you find the websites root/ folder?

the root is the top-most folder, where the main index.html/index.php is

But how do I access it?

you run a website and don't know how to access its files? i'm not sure how that's possible

I really don't. it barely shows me anything. The site is only an extension of a hosting site.

how you install webapps or change content?

shared hosting is a shit.
u have ftp access?
otherwise email support.

probably via cpanel 2bh. he should have ftp access but probably not root.

I tried downloading a ftp. However I don't know what to put in for username and password. It keeps saying it can't connect to the website.

i think you should hire someone to manage your website

Ha-ha "advanced users only"

Should be a good idea if he knows how to apply the icon, but I wouldn't anymore help after that.

And look, this is all it says in the help section for it.

I'm trying to see if someone could help with the site.

Could (You) simply be able to help me? ill give you my username/ password.

i could, but i'm about to leave to drop off a friend at the airport

u should delete this. g is friendlier than most boards but yeah..
email support for your ftp credentials (they will probably be the same as for your cpanel login.) remember to use sftp.
Ignore the haters, I started off in shared hosting not knowing wtf I was doing and now manage my own for my websites with debian.
