The link tag is: <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="http://otranscribe.com/favicon.png">

it works for all browsers except chrome.

As said before it is probably your cache if not then the following might be of use, these anwser have been quoted from: Favicon not showing up So you might want to check that link.

If clearing your browser did not work then it might be the way how you included it

How you should add it: Normal favicon:

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

PNG/GIF favicon:

<link rel="icon" type="image/gif" href="favicon.gif" /> <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="favicon.png" />

Or are you looking at your site locally? because google chrome can't display favicons if they are not uploaded to a webserver, this might be your problem.

If you use Favicon Generator you can create all types of favicons you need if these options did not work I suggest checking the link where I quoted the anwesers from I hope this helps!

  • While this link may answer the question, it is better to include the essential parts of the answer here and provide the link for reference. Link-only answers can become invalid if the linked page changes. – lin May 28 '15 at 10:18
  • Hmm I suppose this is true, well in this case I shall include some parts thanks for telling me. – RDAxRoadkill May 28 '15 at 10:20
  • Flag answers as "duplicate", this will work fine for "stackoverflow" internal links. And finally, you will recieve some badges for flagging "duplicates". Welcome to Stackoverflow. – lin May 28 '15 at 10:21

It happens when you get data from Cache. Try deleting cache and then try again. Most probably it is due to that.

Press Ctrl+F5 or else Clear your website cache and reload the page. It will work fine, and your code is correct.

P.S. Try in Incognito Mode and check
