Description Mike McShea 2008-01-17 15:49:20 UTC
Will Wiki be adding a custom icon for wiki people that will show up in the Springboard when a user makes a "webclip", using their iPhone or iPod Touch?


If so the simple way is:

Create a 57x57 PNG. Name it "apple-touch-icon.png" Throw it in the root folder of your website. (Not the root of your server, the root of your web documents.)
Comment 1 JeLuF 2008-01-17 19:51:20 UTC
We share one root folder for all projects. So we'd have one logo for Wikipedia, the Commons, Wiktionary, etc. pp. To enable this feature, an additional <link rel/> tag is needed.
Comment 2 Mike McShea 2008-01-17 19:57:13 UTC
yes, the example below:

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="/imgs/apple-cybernet.png" />  

is another way to do it.


Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2008-01-19 06:30:48 UTC
Support for the link added in r29942 ($wgAppleTouchIcon, defaults to false/none).

Have created an initial icon for Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/apple-touch-icon.png

(The glossy look and round corners are applied over this by the iPod UI. It looks rather fetching IMHO. :)
