I had a similar issue after upgrading to v1.17. The solution was to update your Node version to ver 14. I hope this helps.

Hello,

I'm trying to create a plugin that shows the group badge next to the username on the topic list. It's very similar to this, but on the topic list.

Thank you in advance!

Is there a way to exclude pinned topics from the archiver?

The issue seems to happening because of the touch icon being loaded and replacing the favicon I think.

Hi @baris, thank you for your suggestion. Our custom favicon is now showing consistently. It is very odd though. Is it suppose to fall back on touch icon, if favicon is somehow unavailable? I thought it was the other way around?

This might be hard for you to replicate, but do you know why the notification count does not show consistently? I have to go to a topic in order to load my notification count (on the bell icon). Once I go back to forum home, the notification count goes away.

Did you restart nginx and nodebb after replacing the favicon? The icon is cached by nodebb so a restart is necessary.

I was able to restart nginx and nodebb (and rebuild) and the issue still persists. Any other ideas on how to fix it?

Behavior:

1. Go to forum home - you may or may not see the custom favicon
2. Go to any category
3. Go to any topic
4. Custom favicon should appear
5. When you navigate back to forum home or any other topics, the custom favicon persists.
6. Hit refresh, it reverts to default favicon

Which is odd because nodebb/public and nodebb/public/upload have the same favicons.

@baris not yet. I will try it tonight and schedule a maintenance. We have a lot of active users at the moment.

@baris I replaced the default favicon with our custom one and it appears that fixed the issue. I will continue to monitor it.

NOTE:

Haven't restarted & rebuilt the forums. I only replaced the favicon image in nodebb/public

EDIT:

I still see the default favicon on random refreshes of the page. The notification counts also is a hit or miss still. Also, when sharing post to external sites/apps, I'm still seeing the default nodebb favicon.

@baris I will try that.

Also, when replacing the favicon in nodebb/public/ does the size have to be 16x16?

@baris said in Custom Favicon Not Showing:

Can you post a link to your forum? Also check if the correct favicon is in the following paths
/path/to/nodebb/public/favicon.ico
/path/to/nodebb/public/uploads/system/favicon.ico

Hi @baris,

I'm seeing the default nodebb favicon in /nodebb/public and I'm seeing our custom favicon in /nodebb/public/uploads/system

@teemberland do you get the same issue in another browser or within an incognito session ?

Yes, the same issue in incognito mode/private mode. And yes, the issue occurs in Chrome, Firefox and Safari.

It's strange, that the favicon would appear randomly as I navigate around the forum. Say from forum index > Go to a category > Go to random topic then favicon would show. But as soon as I hit refresh, favicon reverts to default favicon and the notification counts disappears.

Try clearing the cache on your browser.

I did, multiple times. The issue still persists.
