Tom, those are bookmarks on your local browser, not anything todo with the Forum per se. You'll have to build a history of coming here via the new URL or bookmark the Forum, depending how your browser is set up.

IN the past the icon just popped into the bookmark bar without any intervention on my part.

VT100?
Funny, most people don't know what asynchronous terminals are. Are you talking 7 or 8 bit? LOL

On a PC, click ctrl-F5 to force a fresh download of all files on the page. Oops, I almost forgot, you use Chromebook. Is there a way to clear browser cache?

I have no idea if I can dump my cache. I don't want to do that. I have dozens of bookmarks and I have never had to do one thing to get the icons displayed.

I was the analog tech on VT50 series. I never liked the VT100 keyboard as much as the VT52.

Clearing cache doesn't lose bookmarks (unless you opt to do that). Clearing cache removes old web site files, and the next time you visit you'll automatically get the latest and greatest.
A simple google search turned up this:
How to clear the cache on your Chromebook to keep your computer running smoothly
It's easy to clear the cache on your Chromebook, and select which specific data you want to delete. Here's how to do it.

Meanwhile, the favicon displays fine for Spencer and me.

I know what a cache clear does and doesn't do and I know how to do it. I don't want to clear the cache. It is a pain.

Your choice of course, just trying to help. A few days ago I cleared cache on my laptop - a couple of mouse clicks; No loss of bookmarks or anything else I didn't want to lose, and no PITA.

I shut down and turned it back on and the icon is now magically there. Thanks for the help.

Glad it worked. Thanks to Spencer for his Chromebook expertise.
haha, off / on solves most problems
Glad this problem is solved. Personally I really like the new platform. I find it very easy to navigate, probably helps that another Forum I am on is very similar, probably same software. Bunch of Yamaha motorcycle guys, not as tech savvy, as we around here, lol.
