Hi all
I found my LP loading /favicon.ico and be causing timeout.
I read Marketo Tip 1: Favicon on Marketo Landing Pages Marketo Hidden Tricks and TipsMarketing Rockstar Guides
And I inserted <link> tag explicitly and correctly.
But marketo still inserts another <link> tag.
How to trim or override marketo Favicon <link>?

Hi Takehiro,
This is something that I've noticed happening as well. For an immediate fix, you can create a redirect rule to go from cname.yourdomain.com/favicon.ico to point to /rs/999-XXX-999/images/favicon.ico Redirect a URL Path - Marketo Docs - Product Docs.
I found new feature to disable default favicon links.
Admin => Integrartion => Landing Pages => Edit
Current docs doesn't make a mention of this.
This needs to be shouted from the rooftops.

How about this, too?
Hey Sanford Whiteman, how long should it take for that change to be reflected on my LPs? I updated it yesterday afternoon but still showing the default favicon tags in the rendered page.
Which change, Sydney? If you create a redirect, that doesn't change the HTML, but does change the file that's actually fetched.
When I turned off the default favicons in Admin, it still didn't update on my Landing Pages. Turns out the page needs to go to draft mode and be reapproved for the change to take effect, but updating that setting doesn't actually push the pages to draft mode. So I made a small edit to the template and approved it, just to push the pages to draft mode, then reapproved the pages and now it's working.
you should load the favicon into Marketo and put in the full URL to the icon.
Thanks Josh
After uploaded, Marketo instance still insert two tags link to root path.
But favicon works fine.
Ummmm
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="https://nation.marketo.com/rs/999-XXX-999/images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" >
<link rel="icon" href="https://nation.marketo.com/rs/999-XXX-999/images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" >
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="https://nation.marketo.com/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" >
<link rel="icon" href="https://nation.marketo.com/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" >
Takehiro-san,
Are you sure that these two lines are not hard coded in your templates? Marketo does not automatically insert Favicon <link> tags into pages, so I suspect this is actually code that was accidentally inserted in the template.
When you added the "/rs/999-XXX-999/images/favicon.ico" link, did you do this in your template, or using custom HTML in the Landing Page editor?
こんにちは、ジョナサン
My templates does not include "/favicon.ico" .
I wrote correct two lines "/rs/999-XXX-999/images/favicon.ico" at LP editor.
But "/favicon.ico" come from anywhere.
See my very simple LP example
http://pages-demo.ogis-ri.co.jp/test_NoFavicon.html
Now I found new thing.
Marketo official LP has same issue.
This instance does not have "http://pages2.marketo.com/favicon.ico" but inserted "/favicon.ico" lines.
Hi Takehiro,

The system doesn't seem to allow putting an .ico URL in Redirect URL field.
Make sure you have "Use non-Marketo Landing Page." It works fine.
Yes, it works. Thanks!
