Hi Lewatle,

That icon in your browser tab is called the "Favicon" of a site.  We have documentation on how to change that for DSpace 7 here: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/User+Interface+Customization#UserInterfaceCustomization-CustomizeFaviconforsiteortheme

Hello Tim and Lewatle,

I would like to follow up on that question. The documentation doesn't fit for us unfortunately, because for some reason we don't have config.*.yml (in DSpace 7.2) where you could put something under a "themes" section.

We only have a dspace.cfg with the following entry under OpenSearch settings:

# location of favicon for service, if any must be 16X16 pixels
websvc.opensearch.faviconurl = http://www.dspace.org/images/favicon.ico

But I want to include a local file under images and not a URL. I don't even know if this is the right spot to change it.

How do I do that now if I am missing what the documentation points to?

Thank you and kind regards
Matthias

Dear Matthias,

If you are looking in dspace.cfg then you are in the wrong place—that's the DSpace backend. You should be looking in the DSpace Angular frontend. According to GitHub, this config key is present in DSpace 7.2 as well, see:


Hope that helps,
