Favicon not showing in search results

[ad_1]

We are using Divi and I added our favicon image using the theme customizer. The favicon shows properly in browser tabs, but if I search for us on Google the results page shows us with the generic globe icon instead of the favicon.

Google says favicon images must be in multiples of 48×48 in size, and my file is 480×480 pixels. But when pages are generated, the code in the head displays this:

<link rel=”icon” href=”/wp-content/uploads/favicon.png” sizes=”32×32″ />
<link rel=”icon” href=”/wp-content/uploads/favicon.png” sizes=”192×192″ />

Has anyone run into this problem? Is there a way to keep the wrong sizes from being used?

  1. I just realized that the 192×192 size does comply with Google guidelines. Maybe the problem is having two different entries for the favicon?
