To add a favicon to your website:

Add this to your source code or header.php:

below the </head>

<link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/name of youricon.ico”/>

To create the icon itself, start a new file in PS. Size = 16x16px or 32x32px. Design (remember to create a transparent background if it is a shape or logo) and save for web.

When asked where to save it to, save to root folder (where your .html .php pages are and not your images folder!) ALSO change the extension to “.ico” ( this is not an option, you’ll just have to type it in.)
