Issues with 'favicon'?

[giabaio]

Hi there. I am not sure this is the right place to ask these couple of questions - I hope so...

So: I've just started using this theme, which looks very nice, simple and flexible. I have experienced a couple of issues with the favicon, though. Firstly I was trying to use an image in assets/img (locally, not under themes/hugo-theme-stack/) and it wasn't working. I figured that there's some processing of the images to rescale them and, while doing this, the file got renamed - I think that pointing to the renamed file in my config.yaml file did the trick.

However, it seems like this is only working for the landing page. Any other page doesn't show the favicon. An example is here.

Am I missing something obvious? I've not changed much form the default theme --- only added a few lines to layouts/partials/article/components/details.html (which I have created a copy of under the root of my website) to show the authors of each post.

Thanks in advance.

Place icon locally under static/favicon.ico folder (assuming your icon named as favicon.ico).
In config.yaml set like this.

params:
    favicon: /favicon.ico

Brilliant --- thank you.

I used to do this, which doesn't work properly as well. Thanks for your solution @rmdhnreza.

params:
    favicon: favicon.jpg

I am still having trouble viewing the favicon after doing it this way @rmdhnreza . Is there anything I need to adjust in the theme that might be overriding it?

Would you provide your config file along with folder structure? Also try deleting /resource and /public then re generate them

@Ayx03 I ended up fixing it. I had the favicon.ico in the /static folder by itself originally. I changed it to have it in /static/img/ instead and that worked.

Seems to be confusing this part of the configuration. Will consider refactoring this part.

Thanks for your responses!
