Site Icon and Notification Email

💡 In this guide, you will upload the browser site icon and enter the email address used for site notifications. Estimated time: 3 minutes.

The site icon appears in browser tabs and bookmarks. The notification email receives system messages such as form submissions. Set both early so later testing is easier.

1. Open Site Info​

From the Workspace dashboard, click Sites in the left sidebar. Find the target site and click Enter Admin. In the site admin, find the Settings area in the left sidebar and click Site Info.

This page manages basic site information, including the site name, description, browser icon, and notification email.

2. Set Site Icon​

Upload the site icon in the Favicon area. This icon is used as the browser site mark when visitors open or bookmark the website.

Recommendations:

  • Use a clear brand logo or simplified icon.
  • Keep the image square when possible.
  • Avoid images with too much text or detail, because small browser icons can become hard to read.

The site icon also follows image rules. If you are not sure about icon size, read the Favicon section in Image Guidelines. Simpler icons stay clearer at small sizes.

After uploading, save the settings and open the live site to check whether the browser tab shows the new icon.

3. Set Notification Email​

Enter the receiving email address in Notification Email.

Example:

501111111@qq.com

This email is usually used for form submission notifications. When a visitor submits an inquiry form, the system sends the notification to this address.

Use an email that can receive messages

Do not enter an inactive, misspelled, or unmonitored email address. After saving, submit a test form to confirm the email is received.

4. Save Settings​

After setting the icon and notification email, click Save.

Then run two quick checks:

  • Open the live site and check whether the browser tab icon updates.
  • Submit a test form and check whether the notification email receives the message.
