    I have posted this question before, perhaps in the wrong forum.

    I'm using the Genesis Framework v.2.2.5 and the Genesis Sample v.2.2.2. On my http://www.shapeyourface.com site the favicon is correct - YOURFACE. But on my http://www.hairloss-reversible.com site, instead of the YOURHAIR favicon being displayed I get the YOURFACE. This is the online version of my site. On the WordPress dashboard I see the YOURHAIR, which is correct.

    In the Media Library for hairloss-reversible.com I have the correct favicon. But it's labeled favicon1.ico. Could the "1" be a problem? I cannot change it to favicon.ico without the 1. I tried to do this many times.

    To repeat, when I'm working on my website - http://www.hairloss.com/wp-admin, I see the correct favicon, but when I go to my website online I see the YOURFACE icon. I did the uploading through Genesis/Upload Favicon. And of course I refreshed. This is a small problem but I'd like some help in solving it.

    You are using the Genesis Favicon Uploader to load your favicons on both sites. Normally, you just copy the favicon to the child theme's images directory and you're done with it. Since that's a third party plugin, you should probably ask your question in their support forum, although there hasn't been a response in the forum for two years: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/genesis-favicon-uploader. These days however, many developers opt to use the WordPress Site Identity feature released in Ver. 4.3 so there's a nice site-level icon button on mobile devices. Here are some details from the Digital Pro theme about how to set it up. http://my.studiopress.com/setup/digital-pro-theme/customize-your-settings/site-identity/
