  • Hi @idevpas, great question! If the site is hosted here with us and you link to it from YouTube, as far as I can tell, you’ll see the site’s favicon. To make that the WordPress logo, you’d need to remove your existing favicon if you have one.

    Note that’s the behavior I’ve observed now. YouTube may change how they display icons; that would be outside our control. Hoping this helps though!

    Still problem!
    I don’t know, where is problem, it’s total mystery for me.
    I’v tried strange WordPress blog links and properly show theirs site icons on my YouTube channel.
    The problem is only with my WordPress blog link, but I removed site icon to default and deleted browser cache before.
    I don’t understand it.
    It’s totally sick!

    Hi
    I’v probably found the problem!
    Google doesn’t index my WordPress blog site in Google cache!
    When I search phrase/string “<my site> wordpress” with Google, the Google doesn’t show my WordPress blog site in/within searching list/result!
    Why?!

  • I can’t speak to the mysteries of Google’s algorithms. I can confirm both of your sites here with us show a W as the site icon, though. Can you check in with their support?

    Sorry, but I can’t believe you, because I don’t see that WordPress favicon on my YouTube channel.
    I have suspecting, the “Big Google Brother” censorship blocks me.
    So thank you and goodbye.
