   My favicon works in all of the explorers but IE9. So, what must I do to display it also in IE9?

   Please try to upload the favicon.ico into the main wordpress directory (where the wp-content, wp-admin and wp-includes folders can be found). As an alternative you can use plugins like: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-favicon/

   I did all things that you told about this issue, but still the problem is going on.

   1- I placed this code in Header.php : <link rel="icon" href="http://iyidemokrasi.com/wp-content/themes/newscast/images/favicon.ico" type="image/png" />

   under the code: <!-- title -->
   <title><?php if (is_home()) { bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } elseif (is_category() || is_page() ||is_single()) { ?> <?php } ?><?php wp_title(''); ?></title>

   2- I also uploaded my favicon.ico to images folder where also the skins of theme are. (Newscast>images)

   3-I downloaded All In One Favicon plugin and set it up. And then by using its settings I uploaded my favicon.ico (by using frontend ico box)

   4-I also uploaded my favicon.ico where you told (wp-content, wp-admin etc. folders can be found)
   Also I deleted the default red sun favicon.ico from there

   Totally my favicon problem is still going on. What must I do next or what I did wrong?

   PS: It doesn't work in none of explorers yet.

   Hi sulker,

   I just checked your site using IE9 and I can see the right favicon. Kindly clear your browser cache. :)

   In this case please try to replace:

   <link rel="icon" href="http://iyidemokrasi.com/wp-content/themes/newscast/images/favicon.ico" type="image/png" />

   with:

   <link rel="icon" href="http://iyidemokrasi.com/wp-content/themes/newscast/images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

   and check your image/icon path - http://iyidemokrasi.com/wp-content/themes/newscast/images/favicon.ico gives me a 404 not found error.

    Thanks Dude. It works on Chrome now. My theme name "Newscast" is listed in themes file with beginning capital letter "N" as "Newscast". I fixed it by changing it to "newscast" . Have a look now please and let me know if you are still see the same error. That's why you take "404 not found" error I think. Also I did the changes you wrote above.

    Thank at all...
