Changing the Favicon on Webflow
Have you ever wondered how to change the favicon on your Webflow website? The favicon is the small icon that appears in the browser tab when someone visits your site.
It’s a great way to add personal branding and make your website stand out. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of changing the favicon on Webflow.
Step 1: Prepare Your Favicon
Before we dive into Webflow, you need to have a favicon image ready. The favicon should ideally be a square image with dimensions of 16×16 pixels or 32×32 pixels. You can create your own favicon using graphic design software like Adobe Photoshop or use online tools that specialize in generating favicons.
Pro tip: Keep in mind that the favicon should be recognizable even at smaller sizes, so avoid intricate details or text.
Step 2: Accessing the Project Settings
To change the favicon in Webflow, you need to access the project settings. To do this:
- Login to your Webflow account and select your desired project.
- In the Designer interface, click on the “Project Settings” button located at the bottom left corner of the screen.
Step 3: Uploading Your Favicon
Once you are in the project settings, follow these steps to upload your custom favicon:
- In the “General” tab, scroll down until you find “Favicon”.
- Click on “Choose Image” and select your prepared favicon from your computer.
- Webflow supports various image file formats such as .png, .ico, and .svg.
- After selecting your file, Webflow will automatically upload and display a preview of your favicon.
Step 4: Publish Your Changes
After you have successfully uploaded your favicon, it’s time to publish your changes and make the new favicon live on your website:
- Click on the “Publish” button located at the top right corner of the Designer interface.
- Webflow will prompt you to confirm the publishing action. Click “Publish” again to proceed.
- Once published, your new favicon will replace the default Webflow favicon in all browser tabs and bookmarks.
