    [Forum] favicon not showing after upgrade

    Hello, after I upgraded to 4.1.5 my website's favivon is not showing, instead the vbulletin favicon is showing.
    No, I did not replaced my favicon with the vbulletin icon. Mine is still in the server but is not showing.

          Try another browser.


          vB5 is unequivocally the best forum software, but not yet...

            It happens with any browser.
            Only the admincp shows the correct favicon.

                  Try this:-
                  Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> StyleVars [click Go] now do a search for favicon.
                  You should then see [ImagePaths favicon] click on the red favicon, and now add the full path to your favicon.ico it should look something like this: http://myforum.net/favicon.ico this will be okay if you have upload your own favicon to your forum, Oh and don't forget to save the changes you made.

                    I went through all of the steps outlined above this morning, and except for Firefox, my favicon isn't showing up. Even in Firefox, links to my site in the favorites bar have reverted to VB. This is weird, since I made sure I didn't overwrite the favicon when upgrading to 4.1.5.

                    Maybe it is the browsers, although I've cleared cache and history in all of them. You can test my forum...do you see the small black and white Polar Bear head or do you see the vb favicon?
