We'll create fresh WordPress site with FAVIROLL – FAVIcons for blogROLL installed. You have 20 minutes to test the plugin after that site we'll be deleted.
This plugin convert the favicon.ico from the blogroll sites into PNG images and save this in a local cache file. The conversion process works just on the admin-page, visitors don’t have to waste time to wait for favicons from remote websites. If a blogroll entry was added or modified this single Link will be updated.
All cached icons can conveniently be assigned to any of the bookmarks, just a mouse click.
The plugin fallback to a default icon, if on the remote websites cannot be detected a valid favicon. The default icon can be configured like any other bookmark.
