  Hi,

  I’m trying to modify the default WordPress icon that appears on the browser window. Online WordPress tutorials are telling me to go into the “Theme Customizer”, go into the “Site Identity”, and then change my icon through the menu that appears there. However, the Sequential theme does not have this option. It only has the option to add a logo, which I do not want shown on the website. This seems to be different then the website logo.

  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Head here to add your Blavatar:

  You’ll see an area to the right where you can upload it under “Blog Picture / Icon.”

  That’s only for self-hosted WordPress sites, where you’re running WordPress software on your own hosting. WordPress.com is a bit different. :)

  Hi. So there is no option at WordPress.com to add my own logo to my blog right? Not with the “intergalactic” theme?
