hellomoto Posted March 28, 2024 Posted March 28, 2024 (edited) I don't have a request in templates for favicon.ico. In Firefox inspector: Request cookies are: 'adminer_key', 'adminer_sid', 'tracy-session', 'wire0s', 'wire1s', 'wire1s_challenge', 'wires', 'wires_challenge'. Stack trace: load resource:///modules/FaviconLoader.jsm:180:20 load resource:///modules/FaviconLoader.jsm:567:70 loadIcons resource:///modules/FaviconLoader.jsm:645:26 onPageShow resource:///modules/FaviconLoader.jsm:679:12 onHeadParsed resource:///actors/LinkHandlerChild.sys.mjs:56:24 handleEvent resource:///actors/LinkHandlerChild.sys.mjs:172:21 I don't know what those are. I did recently install and then afterward notice an odd commit and deleted the module -- https://github.com/FriendsOfProcessWire/FieldtypeLeafletMapMarker/commit/e57e9373e6cccb79fe89dfda00fec117624649f2 has a bunch of empty files? "Remove executable bit from files"? -- Sorry I just realized the permissions changed from 755 to 644... Edited April 10, 2024 by hellomoto addendum?
hellomoto Posted March 28, 2024 Author Posted March 28, 2024 Maybe it's Firefox looking for favicon file automatically... It goes away if I indicate a favicon... Indicating a nonexistent one changes the stack trace to load resource:///modules/FaviconLoader.jsm:180:20 load resource:///modules/FaviconLoader.jsm:567:70 loadIcons resource:///modules/FaviconLoader.jsm:645:26 FaviconLoader/this.iconTask< resource:///modules/FaviconLoader.jsm:621:18 _runTask resource://gre/modules/DeferredTask.sys.mjs:347:18 _timerCallback/< resource://gre/modules/DeferredTask.sys.mjs:318:20 _timerCallback resource://gre/modules/DeferredTask.sys.mjs:337:9 _startTimer/callback/< resource://gre/modules/DeferredTask.sys.mjs:185:18 Sorry this isn't quite insightful
Tiberium Posted March 28, 2024 Posted March 28, 2024 Jep Firefox is looking automatic for a favicon file if it is not provided in <head> section. 1
BrendonKoz Posted June 5, 2024 Posted June 5, 2024 All browsers request a /favicon of some sort (.ico, .png, .gif, etc) - it's the icon that shows up in your browser's TAB to identify the website at quick glance. It may not be required, but you will always have a request, and if you don't include one, you'll also always get 404 errors in your webserver log files. There are other files that browsers will automatically request. I often use a webservice to take care of (most) of them at once, such as https://realfavicongenerator.net/. Older browsers/devices may still request files that this service no longer generates for you, but thankfully those requests will slowly fade with time. ?
