What’s the proper way to add a favicon in WordPress without a plugin?

Posted by Prem Tiwari | Updated on October 11, 2020

I usually put the icons in an images folder inside my theme so I’d use

function kia_add_favicon(){ ?>

<?php }

add_action('wp_head','kia_add_favicon');

edited: to add the apple touch icon per the comment, and to clarify that if you are using a child theme, but the favicon is in the parent theme’s image folder, you’d use

1	get_template_directory_url();
