Most of the themes just forgot to manage this small but nice feature. The plugin just add – inside the HEAD section – the needed links to the favicon. It supports, both the .ico and a .gif favicon.

Due to the famous web browser from Redmond. The best approach is to have 2 separates favicon files located at the site root directory. 1. The first favicon file (favicon.ico) is either a 16×16 or a 32×32 icon. Nowadays, all modern browser supports both size. 2. The second favicon file (favicon.gif) is a (reasonable) free size, and can be an animated GIF too! The .gif version have precedence over the .ico. So, if the browser support animated favicon, the animated will be displayed, else the static .ico will be used instead. Note that both favicon.ico and favicon.gif can be different pictures.
