Our favicon is not showing up when hosting the app on Galaxy. There are no issues on our local machine. Any ideas what this could be? Location is /public/favicon.png. Thanks!
If I remember correctly, special handling here uses favicon.ico as the filename

Converted the PNG to ICO and moved it in and out of /public.
But the icon didn’t show up. Will wait a bit and see if it’s a caching issue. If this doesn’t work, it might be an option to host the icon on a separate server.
How are you referring to the favicon in your HTML @c6y? It should work on Galaxy without any issues.
We use it in our projects by simply adding it to the public folder and including the appropriate tags in our main.html.
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico">
To ensure it is not a cache issue, you can add a parameter to your URL that forces the browser to download it. You could append ?v=1 to the favicon URL, resulting in the following format:
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico?v=1">
Thanks Fred! The issue is solved. The icon never showed because I was including the public directory in the link. href="/public/favicon.ico"
