Hi, I need some support with regards to how to change the favicon.

I'm running in Docker and instead of the default blue stack of books, I would like to use my own favicon instead. However I am unsure where to place it or change the relevant settings.

Hi @madmads11,
There's currently no app specific way of changing the favicon.
The best way to achieve this currently, without altering app files, would be to set-up a webserver rule for requests to /favicon.ico and serve your custom favicon on that rule.

Hi Dan Brown, thanks for the quick answer.

I don't mind altering the app files, my problem is that I cannot seem to locate the favicon.ico file. I'm running in Docker and I've been searching but can't find it. What's the location of it?

Within the project it's within the public folder. It's served at the /favicon.ico endpoint. Where that is within the container or mounted volumes will depend on the specific container you're running. What docker setup are you running?
