hi
i created wp theme without favicon, now its live and i wanted to add favicon but it does not work.
i created favicon.ico and uploaded it to theme folder and images folder and the main root, nothing happened.
then i added the code :
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/favicon.ico" />
to header.php but also nothing happened.
any help please.
thanks

Could be a browser cache effect. Try ctrl-f5.

If it's an Artisteer theme just before you export use:
File >> Export >> Site Favicon >> Select and upload favicon icon.

As an alternate you could use the All In One Favicon Plugin by Arne Franken.
