Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Forma Favicon is a modern favicon generator built into your WordPress admin. Upload any image — PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP, or SVG — and the plugin generates every favicon format and size your site needs, all from a single source.

What it generates:

  • favicon.ico with 16×16, 32×32, and 48×48 embedded
  • Apple Touch Icon (180×180)
  • Android Chrome icons (192×192 and 512×512)
  • site.webmanifest for PWA support
  • browserconfig.xml for Windows tiles

Icon styling controls:

  • Adjustable padding (0–40%) to give your icon breathing room
  • Border radius (0–50%) for rounded or circular icons
  • Custom icon background color behind transparent images
  • Configurable theme color and background color for manifests

Live preview:

  • Browser-tab mockup shows exactly how your favicon will look
  • Light and dark mode toggle to preview against both backgrounds
  • Changes update in real time via client-side canvas rendering
  • “Unsaved” indicator when settings differ from the generated output

Smart features:

  • Detects and resolves conflicts with other favicon plugins
  • Automatically overrides the WordPress default Site Icon
  • SVG source images are rasterized client-side before upload
  • Clean admin page under Appearance → Favicon
