Favicon is not displaying

Hello,
I have uploaded the .ico to the root directory and created a wp_head hook but my favicon does not display. could you please take a look at this?
thanks
Hi there,
if you have uploaded an .ico file to the root directory then you shouldn't need any code in a wp_head hook - try removing that. And remove any icons you have set in the Customizer.
Hi David,
should I delete the wp-head hook completely? I did and it is still not displaying.
Hello David, I am still waiting for your response. thanks
Hi there,
You can remove the code you've hooked on wp_head. Make sure you remove the icon you've set as the favicon on the customizer setting as well so the site uses the one you've uploaded on the root directory.
Hi Elvin, I have removed the code and I also have removed the icon from the customizer. It does not work. any other suggestion?
Can you try doing the inverse?
Try removing the icon you've uploaded on the root directory and add the favicon through the customizer.
Make sure to disable ALL plugins except GP Premium as well to eliminate potential plugin conflicts.
Don't forget to clear ALL of your cache as well.
Let us know how it goes.
I do not like to use the customizer for compatibility reasons. I have different files for different browsers. I tried disabling other plugins but nothing changed.
working now :)
Nice one. Glad you got it sorted. :)
