    How does one change the favicon in Managed WordPress? It didn't work to add the favicon.ico file to the file system, and I can't find the Site Identity tool described here.

    Thanks!

      How was it generated?
      Have you tested the file elsewhere? It can't be a jpg for example and has many other requirements.

        @ntnsndr Wow, I spent 30 mins figuring this one out. The new block editor uses all sorts of terminology which is very hard to understand. I guess one has to sit down and study it.

        I found a couple of ways:

        • Block editor - https://gutena.io/how-to-add-a-favicon-in-block-theme and https://www.hostinger.com/tutorials/wordpress-favicon . I have to say even after reading those articles, it took me a good 10 mins of clicking around to find that logo block!
        • I found another hack at https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/50860#issuecomment-1559365586 . Use the hidden URL path in that comment and that brings the legacy way of setting site icon. That works too.

          @ntnsndr In the WordPress Customizer, do you have a "Site Identity" option? (I think this is core, but not sure, as it's in all the themes I use.

            Thank you! The Site Logo block did the trick. Thanks, @girish!

            Wordpress has gotten so complex!
