I put my favicon.ico in my public folder, and it shows up on my localhost, but when I check it out on the internet, shows up instead. My app is hosted through heroku, and the domain is provided by hover. Where is this failing?
Also, in case this helps, here is the code I'm using to render the favicon:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
<title>Shoulak Predictions</title>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag 'application', media: 'all' %>
<%= javascript_include_tag 'application' %>
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>
<%= render 'layouts/shim' %>
</head>
<body>
<%= render 'layouts/header' %>
<div class="container">
<% flash.each do |key, value| %>
<div class="alert alert-<%= key %>"><%= value %></div>
<% end %>
<%= yield %>
</div>
<div class="container">
<%= render 'layouts/footer' %>
<%= debug(params) if Rails.env.development? %>
</div>
</body>
</html>
If I go to mydomain.com/favicon.ico
, I do download the favicon that I uploaded. ALSO, if I go to therealapp.herokuapps.com
, it shows up. I think somehow my domain provider may be providing their own?
Adding a random number in your favicon will force the update:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico?v=2" />
