Favicon

[Rene]

Hi. I'm a newbie so pls pardon the dumb question...

How can I get my wikklytext installation to use a different image file
for its favicon?

I found the default favicon.png file it uses, and I tried just
replacing it with my own new image file (also .png, same dimensions).
Didn't work, but am not surprised it wasn't that simple :)

Not a dumb question at all -- it is *supposed* to work like that, but there is a problem with the logic ... you can tell I never change my favicon :-)

The current logic assumes that the stock css/ files are always "right" and so overwrites the files in css/ on every startup. (This is meant to do the right thing when wikklytext.css changes so that your wiki is auto-updated.)

I think I will change this as follows:
* Since wikklytext.css has an explicit warning not to edit it directly, I will continue to overwrite it on startup so I can make changes as needed. (The StyleSheet item is used to make customizations, just like in TiddlyWiki.)
* I will add an explicit warning to wikklytext.js and continue to overwrite it (wikklytext.js is currently not used at all so this will not affect anyone).
* I will stop overwriting other files. They will still be (re)created if they don't exist. So i.e. if you want to reset everything you can just 'rm css/*' then restart the wiki.

I will put out a 1.9.2 this weekend -- check the mailing list since it's a test version and I don't announce those on the main site.

thanks for the report ...
