Doesn’t work

by hapach·3 weeks ago·3 replies

The icon generator isn’t working, so nothing works.

Straight to the point

by wotzzup·1 year ago

Does what it is expected to do. Would have given an easy 5 start. But, the plugin shows that it is not updated to work with my current version of WordPress. I hope nothing breaks on my site because of this.

Effortless Integration

by logomethis·2 years ago

The Site Favicon plugin has been a game-changer for us. The setup process was incredibly straightforward, allowing us to integrate it into our WordPress site with ease. The user-friendly interface and clear instructions made the setup process a breeze, even for those of us who aren’t particularly tech-savvy.

Adding the favicon plugin to our website was just as simple. The plugin gave us greater control over the basic features of our WordPress site, allowing us to customize our favicon to match our brand identity. Not only did this enhance the aesthetic appeal of our site, but it also made our website more recognizable to our visitors. Overall, the Site Favicon plugin is a fantastic tool that combines simplicity and functionality, and we highly recommend it.

Customizer Revitalizer

by timigi·2 years ago

Wow…! This plugin had a very nice unexpected bonus for me: it re-enabled the “Customizer” option under the “Appearance” menu! It’s been hopelessly missing this entire time and nothing I tried got it to come back, but with this plugin it’s suddenly returned. A must-have!
