I have two image files for favicon.ico . Let me assume they are 'apple.ico' (image of an apple) and 'orange.ico' (image of an orange)
If i change the name of 'apple.ico' to 'favicon.ico' and put it into the static file static/favicon.ico.
Then, in my template file:
#base.html
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="{% static "favicon.ico" %}" />
And in the settings.py file: STATIC_URL = '/static/'
I can see the apple in http://127.0.0.1:8000/static/favicon.ico
And then i delete the favicon.ico file static/favicon.ico (image of an apple).
I change orange.ico to favicon.ico and put it into my static file.
I go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/static/favicon.ico
I suppose i can see the image of an orange but instead the image of an apple is displayed.
The image of apple still shows up even if i delete all the static file.
