Make favicon for WordPress — export locally, upload in WP

Need to make a favicon for WordPress? Pix-8 Favicon Generator runs in your browser with client-side processing — no upload to Pix-8, no account. Load a logo from your device, preview tab icons at 16×16, 32×32, and 48×48, adjust zoom framing, export favicon.ico or PNG on-device, then add the file through your WordPress Site Identity or theme settings.

No upload to Pix-8 · On-device only

What this tool does

  • Load images locally from your device
  • Preview favicon at 16×16, 32×32, and 48×48 before export
  • Export multi-size favicon.ico or a 32×32 PNG
  • Adjust zoom framing for small-icon clarity
  • On-device processing — images never uploaded to a server

Favicon file creation — not a WordPress plugin or admin connector

Pix-8 builds browser-tab favicon files from one local raster image per session. Preview real tab sizes, tune zoom on a center-square crop, then download favicon.ico (16, 32, and 48 px) or a 32×32 PNG on a client-side canvas. It does not log into wp-admin, edit your theme files, inject link tags, or sync assets to your WordPress media library automatically.

Why use Pix-8 to make a WordPress favicon?

WordPress needs a finished favicon file before Site Identity can display it. Pix-8 handles that export step locally when you make a favicon for WordPress — with tab-size preview and client-side processing, without routing your logo through a remote converter first.

Preview tab sizes before upload

Review 16×16, 32×32, and 48×48 renders and a tab mockup in the browser — so your mark reads clearly before you add it to WordPress.

Export ICO or PNG for Site Identity

Download multi-size favicon.ico or a 32×32 PNG from the same session — formats you can upload through standard WordPress site settings.

Logo stays on your device

Load from your machine and export in the browser tab. Pix-8 does not receive your image during preview or download.

    Download favicon.ico or PNG, then upload through Appearance → Customize → Site Identity or your theme’s favicon setting.

Frequently asked questions

Can Pix-8 install a favicon directly in WordPress?

No. Pix-8 Favicon Generator creates favicon files on your device — it does not connect to your WordPress admin, install a plugin, or push files to your server. After export, you upload favicon.ico or PNG through your normal WordPress workflow, such as Appearance → Customize → Site Identity or your theme settings.

What should I export for a WordPress site favicon?

WordPress Site Identity accepts common image formats including PNG. Favicon Generator exports multi-size favicon.ico (16, 32, and 48 px) or a 32×32 PNG from one local raster source per session, with tab-size previews before download. It does not generate Apple touch icons, Android app icons, or a full PWA manifest pack.

Does my logo get uploaded when I make a WordPress favicon?

Not to Pix-8. Decoding, cropping, preview, and export run on a client-side canvas in your browser tab. Your image is read from your device and stays on-device for that session. Only you choose when and where to upload the finished file into WordPress.
