The thing you are looking for is called "favicon", and here is some info about it: https://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Favicon
If you need further info just google using the term favicon

Re: How do I set my website logo title?
Can you explain it to me because some websites say like go put this code: <link rel="icon" type="img/favicon.ico" href="http://www.mywebsite.com/favicon.ico"/>soja wrote:The thing you are looking for is called "favicon", and here is some info about it: https://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Favicon

but I don't understand the http://www.mywebsite.com/favicon.ico part what is the /favicon.ico I need to create another html page ???
Here is what I did:
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<meta name="description" content="">
<meta name="author" content="">
<title>MYWEBSITE</title>
<link rel="icon" type="img/favicon.ico" href="http://www.mywebsite.com/favicon.ico"/>
I just copied and pasted from the website.

You shouldn't need any html code if I remember correctly. Just put favicon.ico in your websites root folder and the browser will look for it automatically.

I tried to just put a favicon.ico in my website root folder but didn't work, and a lot of videos or pages are old and they don't explain a lot.soja wrote:You shouldn't need any html code if I remember correctly.

Create an icon with dimensions 16px/16px save it as favicon.ico and, as soja said, put it in your website's root directory. Make sure you are putting the file in the same folder as your index file.
I have never had this not work.

It also may not work immediately, I assume the browser has a cache so it doesn't request the file every single visit. Give it 5-10min and just F5 your website every now and then.
