Apple Icons Not Working

  • I created apple icons and uploaded them to the images folder. I’ve placed the following code in the header file, but the icons are not working. 

    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="57x57" href="images/apple-icon-57x57.png" />
      <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="72x72" href="images/apple-icon-72x72.png" />
      <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="114x114" href="images/apple-icon-114x114.png" />
      <link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="144x144" href="images/apple-icon-144x144.png" />

    Why is it not working? Do I have the code in the wrong spot?

  • Yep, it’s very likely the copyright plugin – see if there’s a setting for it in there. It’s totally useless for preventing anyone from copying anything, BTW.

    I will install the plugin. It is supposed to disable right clicking and copying of text and images. It works if you are actually on the page, but when you double click on the image opening it in another window, the right click is not disabled. I posted to the plugin’s (WP-Copywrite-Protection) page months ago but did not get a response.

    One more question, when I add header, footer or other template files to the child theme, what’s the best way to handle when a theme upgrade happens with beneficial changes in those files?

    Sorry to say but disabling right click does not actually prevent people saving your work.

    I wrote a blog post about it https://andrew2nevins.blogspot.co.uk/2013/05/how-to-stop-thieves-copying-your-content.html to help explain why.

    Basically the Web itself makes copies of your content and gives them away to anyone who wants to view it. It sounds like you have an issue with the World Wide Web and how it operates.

    Interesting article, Andrew. I have no issue with any work being distributed and shared at all. I am opposed to someone stealing another’s writings or photos without permission and presenting them as original.

    Not sure why people bother to write copywrite plugins then. I’ll delete the one I was using since it’s not preventing anything ??

    I couldn’t get these working until i found this thread and it was because i hadn’t used the absolute URL , they are now working YAY! ??

    I’m using the theme – Catalyst / Dynamik , so it is –

    <link rel=”apple-touch-icon” href=”https://www.my-domain.com/wp-content/themes/dynamik/css/images/touch-icon-iphone.png”&gt;

    etc ,etc
