Choosing a icon logo

You can design your own logo but you can also be inspired by collection of logo

In our case we have chosen an icon directly from https://materialdesignicons.com/

• Choose an icon

• Download the Svg file and rename it to logo.svg

• Go back in the Advanced Export and create a PNG with the biggest size

Generate the favicons

• Go to the realfavicongenerator generator
• Upload your PNG image
• Answer the forms, follows the steps and download the package icon

Upload the favicons

• Then upload the below icon files with the Media Manager ¹⁾ to the root location (ie DOKUWIKI_HOME/data/media/)
• Click on this link http://localhost:8080/start?ns=&tab_files=files&do=media and upload the following files
  • favicon.ico
  • favicon-32×32.png
  • favicon-16×16.png
  • apple-touch-icon.png
  • android-chrome-192×192.png (used in the manifest)
  • logo.svg

Example:

To see where and how you can use your logo, see the logo page.

Create the facebook default

facebook has a dimension constraint on the image illustration. The image should be at minimum 200px by 200px.

We recommend then that:

• you create an image with your photo editor:
  • with the dimension of a facebook card 524×274
  • where you copy your logo
  • and named logo-facebook.png (the default value)

• and upload it at the root of your media manager (next to the other logos)

The facebook page will tell your more about the specific of a facebook card.

Verify

• Refresh and delete the Browser cache by hitting the key combination
  • Ctrl + Shift + R - Chrome
  • or Ctrl + F5 - Firefox
• Check that you see your favicon

Next Step

Create a top navigation menu

OpenSearch Favicon

In the open search, unfortunately, the icon is the icon of the template and is hardcoded, there is nothing we can do to change it at this place.

We advertise it via sitelinks to search engines.

Most of the search engine, support it this ways, if you really really want it, you need to put it manually at $DOKUWIKI_HOME/lib/tpl/dokuwiki/images/favicon.ico.
