1. The SSP file (for the <link rel …> line)
2. The backend Application module (where getFaviconPath() is defined)

In short, if a value is set in the configuration record then it will look under Web Site Hosting Files Live Hosting Files SSP Applications [SSP name] Development [/Source] > [path in config record] > img > favicon.ico.

08/09/2022, 3:10 PMIf no value is set and the site is using new enough technology such that it has a theme, then it will use the theme asset path — this is the path you set in your theme. If you’re using a custom theme, it’s generally advisable to put your favicon in assets/img/favicon.ico
