I am having an issue with my website having a older “template” favicon appear in google searches.

This is what appears ^
When this should be appearing:
I hired a developer to create and input the older design when I first created my website, but their work seems to be stuck.
I have already tried to remove, change, disable, and reset the favicon to no avail.

If your favicon is not appearing on your Shopify store, there are a few things you can try:
-
Incorrect File Format
The three most common formats for favicons are .ico, .png, and .gif. If your favicon is in any other format, it’s likely that it’s not appearing on your store because the file format isn’t compatible.
-
Check the file path
Make sure that the file path for your favicon is correct in the code.
-
Check the theme settings
Some Shopify themes have built-in options for uploading a favicon. Check your theme settings to make sure that the favicon has been properly uploaded and configured.
-
Make sure the link tag is in the head section of your theme.liquid file is correct.
I advise you to try the below code:
Copy
- Check your browser compatibility
Make sure that the favicon format is supported by all major browsers. ICO format is widely supported.
If none of these solutions work, you might need to contact the theme developer or Shopify support for further assistance.
