Site Icon/Favicon

[clownius]

Hi im asking on behalf of tracker.empornium.me and the team. How do we get an icon next to our site name. We are currently working on new site/tracker software based on Gazelle. We have noted that our icon appears on Firefox but not in Deluge.

This may be a noob question if so im sorry. But the coders appear to be unsure why we dont have one of these in Deluge. If anyone can link me to how to make this work i will pass it on to the code team as i said i would follow it up for them. Im not a coder personally though sorry.

Thanks

I don't see any favicon on your site can you supply a direct link to it.

The code we use to get the icon is here: http://git.deluge-torrent.org/deluge/tr ... table#n158

Thanks passing a link to this post to the coders and site owner as we speak

Edit: Should work on our test tracker already

Not sure if this has been sorted or not but for future reference the steps taken to download an icon are roughly:

1. Try to download http://<tracker name>/
2. If redirected (via HTTP status codes), download that page instead
3. Look for favicon links on the downloaded page (<link rel="shortcut icon" ... /> or <link rel="icon" ... />)
4. Try to download favicon from links (if any)
5. Failing that, try to download favicon.ico
