Magento Admin - Favicon option not present in Configuration - Design - HTML Head - magento

I'm running Magento 1.7.0.2 with multistore and I would like to change the favicon of my stores but the favicon option is disappeared from the Config - Design - HTML Head where it should be.
The file app/code/core/Mage/Page/etc/system.xml contain the reference to this option
and the file app/code/core/Mage/Adminhtml/Model/System/Config/Backend/Image/Favicon.php is present.
Any suggestion?
Thanks
Enrico

you can simply replace the default favicon with your own in /skin/adminhtml/default/default/favicon.ico location

Was a broken installation, I tried all of your suggestion without success. The site had, during the time many website and store view added and removed. Many themes and customization. We decide to split it in different vhost now all it's more clean and smouth.

Can you take a screenshot of System -> configuration -> Design that show 'Current Configuration Scope' and 'Favicon Icon' see example below

Why my changes on template files are not showing up?

I am working on Magento and trying to make some changes on one of the .phtml files. But my changes never reflect on the web site. I have tried the following things:
Clear Magento cache and delete cache storage
Open the path hint and make sure I am editing the correct file
Go to magento admin panel, System->Configuration->Design, and make sure templates, skin, layout and default folders are correct.
None of the above action worked. Is there anything else that I could do?
Thanks a lot.
Screen shot
First thing you would want to check is the cache. System > Cache Management. Disable the Layout and Blocks HTML output caches and refresh the frontend page where you've put your changes.
If cache isn't the problem there is a way to find out which template is rendered in a specific location because you may not be editing the correct file.
Go to System > Configuration, select your website from top left Current Configuration Scope, then go to Developer > Debug and set Template Path Hints to Yes.
After this, save your config and refresh the page where you want to modify the .phtml.
If you are working on a live environment make sure not everybody will be able to see the template paths by putting your IP in the Allowed IPs input from Developer Client Restrictions.
After you are finished with this re-enable the cache.

Missing HTML Head section from admin system->configuration->Design in magento

During development i found that in system configuration->Design HTML Head section is missing.
I had gone through many tutorial but not get the solution of this problem.
I had clear the cache and perform indexing.
Disable all the install module.
I am using magento 1.7.0.2
If you have added new layout in your cms section . And added Mage/Page module config.xml in local, then also add system xml there.I thing this will work for you.
local/Mage/Page/etc/system.xml

Eliminating index.php from URL in Joomla 2.5

I am using Joomla 2.5. The problem is, every link has 'index.php', like:
www.mysite.com/index.php/contact
www.mysite.com/index.php/about-us
How do i remove the '.../index.php/...' from my URLs?
My SEO settings under Global Configuration are:
==================================
Search Engine Friendly URLs Yes
Use Apache mod_rewrite Yes
Adds Suffix to URL No
Unicode Aliases No
Include Site Name in Page Titles No
==================================
I have changed htaccess.txt to .htaccess. I have tried everything, but still can't remove 'index.php' from the URLs. Please help me. My apologies if this exists elsewhere.
Go into your Joomla administration panel.
1. Select Site > Global Configuration
2. Under SEO Settings set Use URL Rewriting to Yes
3. Click Save
The next step is to rename the htaccess.txt file that came with the installation to .htaccess
thats it. Hope this helps .
Did you change the setting on the administrator backend or the actual configuration file? Sometimes if you directly modify the configuration.php this wont work. If you did it from backend panel then check your configuration.php to make sure the changes are reflecting.
Also check with your hosting to have mod_rewrite available on the Apache server.
Very unlikely but it could be a small mistake on renaming process of the htaccess.txt , double check the renamed file.

Magento Multi Store themes calling same login.phtml file

I'm new to magento. Currently i'm developing two ecommerce sites using multi-store option in magento. Both the sites are 90% over, last night when i planned to customize the login page i was shocked. The reason is the changes made in first store login page also reflecting in second store also. The login page is curently calling from
frontend/default/default/template/persistent/customer/form/login.phtml
Is it possible to give any custom login page? PLz guide me magento experts......
Please update your post with your frontend/ folder structure down to each theme template folder. It might be that you don't have a copy of login.phtml in the second theme. Moreover you should follow templates best practices as:
Always create for a new shop different packaga. So not
frontend/default
but
frontend/yourcustompackage
Always have default theme left as much untouched, as possible. So in the
frontend/package/default
Should be some basic changes and rules of your package. It means for example in the putting reset.css for all of your themes. Or something like this.
As for me, each store view should have own theme. So, for example, storeview1
frontend/package/storeview1/
There you copy and change files specific for this theme. So, for example, in default you might have login.phtml. But you want storeview1 to have another login.phtml and in storeview2 it should be the same as in default. Therefore you copy the login.phtml from default to storeview1 and change it there. Don't forget to change package and theme in System->Configuration->Design. Package should be change for whole shop and theme should be specified for every store view or left untouched for default.

P.P.S. Try this tutorial or google another one
P.P.P.S. I hope, you got the answer for your question.

Can't change header logo in Magento?

I have created my own theme for magento, and I am trying to edit the logo and am having difficulty.
I have created my own local/Mage/Page/etc/config.xml file, and specified within the config the following:
<logo_src>images/Race-Ramps-logo-streaked-gradient.gif</logo_src>
I created a custom layout in the file as well. I can see the custom layout file in the CMS, but my changes to the logo do absolutely nothing. I have even tried changing the original core config.xml, it still stays the same.
On multiple websites, I have been told to go to System > Configuration > Design > Header, but I do not have the header option?
Help please!
The value you're changing (mostly likely, hard to tell without more context) in the configuration file is the default value for a the logo_src System Config variable. This is not want you want to do.
The people who've told to change the value in System -> Configuration -> Design -> Header are correct. If you don't have a header options there it's eitehr because
The person who setup your admin account didn't give you access (ask them)
You have the wrong configuration scope set (look in the upper left hand corner for the scope selector)
Someone tried to customize your Magento store and accidentally killed the header configuration
If you're desperate you could always search through your codebase for calls to getLogoSrc
base/default/template/page/html/header.phtml
default/iphone/template/page/html/header.phtml
default/modern/template/page/html/header.phtml
and replace them with a hard coded image.
Save image at the below location
/magento/skin/frontend/default/default/images/your_image_name.png
Login to the admin section
System > Configuration > General > Design > Header > Logo Image Src
-- Replace the images/logo.gif to images/your_image_name.png
Your default magneto front-end header logo will be changed to your custom logo.
I was only able to make my logo show (in Magento Community 1.9) after I placed the file in this directory: /skin/frontend/base/default/images/logo_YCZ.jpg
