rename favicon.ico

If you would like to rename favicon.ico (e.g. use static media folder on more than one site) you can simply put this into the global page template head:

1

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/media/my_favicon2.ico" />

↑ handle 404  #

Anyhow you will get requests to the default /favicon.ico. PyLucid raised a 404 error.
To avoid this, create a redirect entry from /favicon.ico to /media/my_favicon2.ico with:

• Django admin site / Redirects / add

if the redirect entry fix it, look into:

• Django admin site / PyLucid / Log entries
