RSS Feed Icon Just Doesn’t Show Up

    I don’t really know what’s going on here. I’m using self-hosted WordPress 2.6.1 and am trying to edit the feed-rss.php and feed-rss2.php files to allow for an RSS Favicon. The code I’m inserting is as follows:

    <image>
    <title>Justin Cox's Mindless Chatter</title>
    <url>https://www.justincox.com/rss.jpg</url>
    <link>https://www.justincox.com</link>
    <width>128</width>
    <height>128</height>
    <description>Justin Cox's Mindless Chatter - https://www.justincox.com</description>
</image>

    This is dropped inside the <channel> right before the <item> tag begins. I have tried hard coding this and using a WP plugin and cannot seem to get the stupid image to show up. I’ve tried using a .png and a .jpg image and still it doesn’t work. I’m pretty much at a loss here. Hopefully someone can help.

    Problem solved. No special coding is needed, nor any plugins. Just a favicon.ico file in the root folder. Not the WordPress root, the site root. It must be titled favicon.ico. I had icon.ico before and it did not work.
