Favicon - Okay in Chrome but not in IE

[MBT_novaa]

Hi Mantis,

I have modified favicon thru config_inc.php.
It successfully displays when Mantis is opened in Chrome but it never appears when opened in IE.
Please advise, I may have missed something.

Thank you.

Does the standard MantisBT icon work?
If so, I guess that your icon is in the wrong format.
It should be .ico https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICO_(file_format)
There are browsers that are working even if you rename .png or .gif to .ico.
This might explain that it works in Chrome for you.

Yes, the standard Mantis favicon works.
Renaming the file extension to 'ico' did not resolve the issue.
We found that having it converted to 'ico' resolves it. The new favicon now appears in both Chrome and IE.

Many thanks atrol!
