Fix 1
Just move your codes for the favicon from it original position in the template to just after ]]></b:skin> and just before </head>, preview and if everything looks all right, save template.
Actually, I left the original code for the favicon in its original place and copy-paste to just after ]]></b:skin> and just before </head>
This is how that section of the template looks like after the fix:
]]></b:skin> <!– iconj.com dynamic favicon code –>
<link href=’http://www.iconj.com/favicon.php?user=manature’ rel=’shortcut icon’ type=’image/x-icon’/>
<link href=’http://www.iconj.com/favicon2.php?user=manature’ rel=’icon’ type=’image/gif’/>
<!– end of iconj.com dynamic favicon code –>
<link href=’http://www.iconj.com/favicon.php?user=manature’ rel=’shortcut icon’ type=’image/x-icon’/>
<link href=’http://www.iconj.com/favicon2.php?user=manature’ rel=’icon’ type=’image/gif’/>
<!– end of iconj.com dynamic favicon code –>
</head>
<body>
Fix for “missing” favicon for old classic Blogger template
If you are using the old classic Blogger template instead of the New Blogger xml template, go to blogger.com (Dashboard) > template > Edit HTML and look for
<$BlogMetaData$>
and paste the favicon codes immediately after <$BlogMetaData$>
