How to use SVG in Generatepress favicon?

Hello,

I am able to use an SVG as the logo without issues, but not as the Site Icon. It asks me to crop (file is 2048x2048 according to Wordpress) and I can't skip cropping like I can with the logo. It gives me an error "There has been an error cropping your image."

I would like to use my SVG file for the favicon. I have Safe SVG and the image is in my Media Library.

Hi Bk,

I think the issue is just the dimension of the SVG is too big.

You can use this tool to export SVG with smaller dimension, eg. 500px instead of 2048px:

Then you should be able to skip cropping. :)

Thanks, it is fixed now! Resizing to 500px did the trick.

You are welcome :)
