i have noticed we are missing out fav icon well with you just updating to the newes version of vbulletin here is how we get the fav icon back :)


Ok go to the admincp login

go to styles and templates > style manager > the style we are using > clcik the lil >>> things on the side > find " header" <– double click it

and the following code to the top of the header sheet

<a name="top"></a>
<link rel="icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
and that will get our favicon.ico back :)

It won't get the icon back with just that code. He would need to upload the actual favicon into the file directory :/

You will need to upload this icon to your main www or public_html directory. http://hy71194.mgatesphoto.com/favicon.ico


Edit: It is probably already setup to allow a favicon, just no one has uploaded one yet. http://www.villavu.com/favicon.ico
