This software enables users to create customizable shortcut icons for Trac.
To enable this plugin, access or insert the following information into the config file, normally in the 'conf/trac.ini' directory:
[components] tracshortcuticon.* = enabled
[shortcuticon] handler = true linkheader = true iconpath = /local/path/on/trac/server/icon.png mimetype = image/png
[project] # Disable build-in handling of icons: icon =
To use it, insert the below settings into the trac.ini config file under the [shortcuticon] section:
handler = true|false - Enables or disables the request handler for /favicon.ico URL.
linkheader = true|false - Enables or disables the insertion of link tags that point to the icon.
iconpath=/local/path/on/trac/server/icon.png - A local OS path of the icon file on the Trac server. Keep in mind; some browsers only support MS ICO format and not PNG or GIF. The icon should be 16x16 or 32x32 pixels in size.
mimetype = image/ - Overrides the file extension's automatic detection of mime-type.
As an example, one can use:
[shortcuticon]
handler = true
linkheader = true
iconpath = /local/path/on/trac/server/icon.png
mimetype = image/png
[project]
# Disable build-in handling of icons: icon =
We highly recommend the TracShortcutIconPlugin to anyone who wishes to provide a shortcut icon to standard compatible browsers and MS IE.
