set Site Name and Fav Icon?

Permalink Browser Info Environment
It certainly would be handy if in the domain mapper besides asking for the domain and selecting the page it goes to it also asked for:
Site Name
Fav Icon
this would make it extremely useful for banging out lots of domains.

otherwise how can we change those?

Its not really designed to let you manage a bunch of completely separate domains, it was designed for a few similar domains pointing at different parts of a site.. like promotional URLS or a extranet...

so it also doesn't make sitemap.xml for each domain, etc.

sorry for the delayed reply... I just saw this.

it may not have been designed for separate domains, but this is exactly how we have been using it.

To set a separate favicon for each site, you would need to:
a) disable the built in favicon from the dashboard as this will override any other settings
b) make sure each of your sites is using a unique template (we have five variations of the same base design)
c) for each site in the head section of the header.php place:

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="<?=$this->getThemePath()?>/favicon.ico" />


and of course put a properly formatted favicon.ico in each theme directory as appropriate. this works great for us!

hope this helps-

We also hard code the site name again in the head section of each header.php as follows:

<title>SITE NAME :: <?php echo $c->getCollectionName() ?> </title>

on a related note, to set the icon for when someone adds a link to your site to their iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad you can use the following:

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="<?=$this->getThemePath()?>/apple-touch-icon.png"/>

Although I still haven't figured out how to get a different c5touch template to load for each site... I'm working on that one now :)
