Description

It's very confusing to find my piwik tab when I have a bunch of tabs open since piwik does not have a unique favicon. I've made a very terrible one for my own installation and modified 2 template files. I don't expect the piwik to use my particular icon, even though I feel anything unique is better than nothing at this point.

Modify 2 file templates:

plugins/Dashboard/templates/header.tpl:<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="piwik_favicon.ico"> plugins/Home/templates/index.tpl:<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="piwik_favicon.ico">

To make a favicon with package "netpbm" installed:

create any 16x16 png file pngtopnm file.png | ppmtowinicon -output=file.ico

Well, ok but we need a nice favicon.. if you can provide a pretty one, why not.

We should at least have an empty one, so that 404 to favicon.ico don't pollute error logs. Increasing priority.

I added the necessary code to index.tpl and uploaded a favicon.ico - must be located in "plugins/Home/templates". If favicon should be adjusted (e.g font-type or color please let me know).
