Say, can anyone tell me where (which template, file, ???) to place my favicon code?
 
Thanks!

Not sure I understand your problem - the favicon image is simply placed in the root and is then gets read by the browser.

To add a favicon to your website, please upload an appropriate image in .ico extension to the root folder of your shop. If this does not help, then open your index.html file and insert the below string somewhere at the beginning:
 
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://www.yoursite.com/image.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
 
where http://www.yoursite.com is your site URL and image.ico is your image for the site.

I was thinking that you still had to put the favicon code in the index.html file, but I didn't see this specific file associated with the cart. The only similar file I see is the index.php file which only contains the following code...
 
<?php
 
header("Location: ../");
exit;
 
?>

umm... I just placed it in the root directory, and it seems to work for me, but ... yeah... don't see any sort of index.html in either the root nor the templates directory, so not sure of what Vera means?

Its in "templates/user" unless you are using the replacement templates feature and have created it in your own templates folder.

In later versions of ViArt Shop (staring from 4.0.5) this line can be added to the layouts you use e.g. layout_hot.html, layout_one_column.html etc.

TOCDO - I am puzzled - I just put the file in the root and it appears OK. Should I be making this more complicated?

Thank you for clarifying Vera! Very helpful.
 
@Chris - No, mine shows up fine just having this in the root as well.

Thanks much! I hadn't realized that you can now just put the icon in the root folder. Much easier!
 
(I've learned my new thing for the day. Can I go home now? LOL)
 
Thanks everyone!
