E-PORTFOLIO TIP OF THE MONTH:
Creating Favicons
A favicon (short for favorite icon), is a small icon that represents your website, most often found in the address bar of your web browser or in lists of bookmarks. Creating a personalized favicon is a great way to enhance your personal brand as users can easily recognize your website at a glance. By default, the favicon of your e-portfolio is your profile picture, but here’s how you can change it:
Step 1: In your dashboard, go to “Appearance” → “Menus” → “Manage with Live Preview”
Step 2: On the top left, click on the blue back (“<”) icon, and then select “Site Identity”
Step 3: Under “Site Icon,” click “Change Image.” Upload your desired favicon the same way you would upload an image on your e-portfolio
Step 4: Once you have uploaded your new favicon, click “Publish”
Side tip: if your page is not in “Publish” mode, click on the settings icon and change it to “Publish”
Step 5: You should be able to see your new favicon on your title bar of your browser as well as on your bookmark
