Sites can be customized with small icons called favicons that appear in the address bar.
Some users of Webnode, can not add a favicon due some problems mentioned below.
1. The Webnode not allow access via FTP to the server, which impedes the publication of favicon.ico in root folder.
2. The Webnode not allow the storage of files which are not GIF, JPG or PNG.
3. The Webnode not provide access to header of page, preventing the code is added in the correct location.
Despite the problems mentioned above, using an alternative process is possible to add a favicon on your Webnode’s site. Follow the steps below and learn how to add your favicon.
To start, you must create your favicon.ico. We recommend that you use the service “IconJ”.

Adding the code to your site
After generating the code of your favicon, you must add this code to your site’s template. To do this go to your control panel, click in ”Format Options” and in new page click on “Footer”.
In small window that pops up you must add the code generated in “IconJ” to “Code HTML of footer”. Check out the picture below.
Then just save and close the window.
Note
The browser stores temporary files of sites that you visit, so it may be necessary to clear the temporary files of your browser for you can see the favicon.
