Do you want to display a different favicon for wp-admin? This snippet comes in handy if you want to have a different favicon for both your WordPress dashboard and the frontend.
Instructions:
All you have to do is add this code to your theme’s functions.php file or in a site-specific plugin:
function favicon4admin() {
echo '<link rel="Shortcut Icon" type="image/x-icon" href="' . get_bloginfo('wpurl') . '/wp-content/favicon.ico" />';
}
add_action( 'admin_head', 'favicon4admin' );
