Descriere
This plugin convert the favicon.ico from the blogroll sites into PNG images and save this in a local cache file. The conversion process works just on the admin-page, visitors don’t have to waste time to wait for favicons from remote websites. If a blogroll entry was added or modified this single Link will be updated.
All cached icons can conveniently be assigned to any of the bookmarks, just a mouse click.
The plugin fallback to a default icon, if on the remote websites cannot be detected a valid favicon. The default icon can be configured like any other bookmark.

Întrebări frecvente
- What’s about favicons of https (SSL) Websites?
-
The plugin is 100% written in PHP. In PHP it isn’t possible to decode SSL sites, so the plugin try to fallback to „curl„.
If this is not available on your webserver, the favicon will not displayed. - Where does the plugin come from?
- Can I save my custom favicons before install an update?
-
No, sorry.
The cache directory is currently a subdirectory in the plugin directory, I designed this to hold all together.
The wordpress update installer remove the whole old plugin directory before install the update, so all cached icons will removed, too.

0.4.8.1
- FIX: Ooops, I’ve overlooked a little error in my code, made one test too less, „mea cupla”. 😉
0.4.8 – Codename: „Dixie’s fix”
- CLN: Code Refactoring: Code structure completely rewritten, a lot of bugfixes and runtime optimation.
- FEA: Implementation of Windows BMP processing. Some site using this image format which can’t process by PHPs GD-Library.
Until now these proprietary formats was (non optimal) passed by Faviroll. - FIX: Some Sites deliver Favions larger 16×16 pixels and proprietary formats wasn’t shrinked to 16×16.
(Issue Request from Dixie. Thanks for feedback, „Dix”).
I’ve found http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net/ to solve the issue.
This superb library is able to convert Windows BMP icons up to 32 Bit to GD image which Faviroll needs.
Conclusion: Favicon handling is more complex I thought at the beginning, but I don’t give up.
