 * When plugin is active, the Favicon on google chrome disappears. This reappears
   when plugin is deactivated. I’ve tried adjusting all plugin settings, including
   deleting and reuploading site icons.
 * Is this a known issue and/or is there a known fix?

 * [@nztrinkets001](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nztrinkets001/) Thank you
   for reporting this. However, I’m not seeing this on two of my test sites.
 * When I try loading the favicon.ico that WP generates when uploading the site 
   icon, e.g. [https://www.example.com/favicon.ico](https://www.example.com/favicon.ico),
   it redirects to something like [https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/cropped-icon-256×256-1-32×32.png](https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/cropped-icon-256x256-1-32x32.png)
   which is an actual icon.

 * [@nztrinkets001](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nztrinkets001/) can go to
   Tools >> Site Health and copy the WP environment info here? Maybe there’s a hidden
   clue there somewhere.

 * I have the same issue, in more that 2-3 sites that I checked.
 * When the maintenance screen is enabled i get that favicon.ico is missing and 
   there is an error 503.
 * If i disable the maintenance then it’s ok.
 * I tried also to switch to a default theme and add a favicon to that. But it didn’t
   work

 * [@tanasi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tanasi/) apologies for the belated
   response. This fell through the cracks. Thank you for reporting that. I’ll make
   sure that the site icon is being included in the maintenance page in the next
   release. Please test when you see it (next Monday).

 * Marking this resolved as the fix was implemented in v7.5.3 (November 2024).
