Dears,

in the appearance i have used my custom favicon and it works fine. Same as in a keycloak themes.
But when any page is downloading, for a few sec standard favicon is shown, like this -
loading:
after it for a few mil sec
Hi!
The custom favicon of your realm should appear relatively quickly.
Depending on your internet connection, and the PNG/JPG size of the image, it might take longer.
Since you’re using localhost here, how large is the image you uploaded?
Preferably it’s as small as possible, for example <10 kilobytes.
I did some tests myself, also with network throttling, and it doesn’t take long for me.
Hi Martin,
My favicon is 8kb .ico format.
Is there anyway to avoid standard favicon to appear before custom favicon downloads?
Unfortunately no.
Currently the OpenRemote icon is a fallback, so it’s shown while loading the new icon.
It’s quite weird however that it takes several seconds on localhost connections.
Especially when it is 8kb, it should show within milliseconds (on localhost).
The tests I did yesterday do show that some performance improvements could be made,
so I created an issue to speed up UI loading here.
I’ll keep an eye out to prevent these icon flashes as well.
I’m linking this forum post to that issue as we speak.
