    WordPress Newb so forgive me if this is silly, I hope it is an easy fix.
    I built my first wordpress theme (out of curiosity – in the past I’ve used Joomla/dreamweaver)and while I was looking through the admin interface saw a section (appearance>customize>site identity) were it looks like a user can set there favicon / site icon. What code do I need to insert into the header OR functions.php (currently only using this for header sizing and selection)to get this to work.
    Any clues/help will be greatly appreciated…

  • I may be wrong, but I’m guessing it may be in the wp head.

    Add the code below in between the head tags of your template.
    <?php wp_head(); ?>

    Add the code below in the footer.php file.
    <?php wp_footer(); ?>

    Thank you; the <?php wp_head(); ?> is the ticket. I would have preferred code just for the site icon, but this makes me happier. Do you know what all the other code is for? wpemojisettings; the css and such that is also added.

    guess it doesn’t matter pages are still responding as expected.

    Same here I’d prefer just the certain codes that I need. But since those lines of code is part of the wp_head and wp_footer, I just leave it. I do know that the wp_footer adds in the admin bar on the top of your blog when you’re logged in. And the wp_head is for the site title and favicon.

    learning I guess. I had never worked in WP until someone asked for some changes to a site. The structure is quite different from CMS’s I’ve used. So out of curiosity I took a simple dreamweaver fluid grid template I made some time age and went about modding it into WP. Like usual it ended up being the little things/quirks. It took awhile to get the admin header image controls to work properly (that’s the only thing I have in functions.php currently), but may add some color controls for the site also.
    Thank you for the help!
