How to display the favicon of my site in bing search result?
The favicon is shown on my browser when I open my site,
but is not shown in the bing search result.
What is the required format of html code?

Hi asd3r
This could possibly happen due to Your .htaccess blocking of hotlinking done by bing.
To exclude bing, possibly add both IP ranges used by bing, and also the bing URL.
A revised .htaccess may look like this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> # enable the rewrite engine RewriteEngine on # Example RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^127\.0\.0\.1$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^<Server public IP>$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^<Server Private IP>$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^<Your Private IP 1>$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^<Your Private IP 2>$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^<AWS SSH IP>(.*)$ # Apple IPs RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^17\.58(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^17\.121(.*)$ # Facebook IPs RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^173\.252(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^69\.171(.*)$ # Twitter IPs RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^103\.252\.112\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^103\.252\.113\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^103\.252\.114\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^103\.252\.115\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^104\.244\.40\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^185\.45\.5\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^185\.45\.6\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^185\.45\.7\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^188\.64\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^192\.133\.76\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^192\.133\.77\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^192\.133\.78\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^192\.133\.79\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^192\.44\.69\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^199\.16\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^199\.59\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^199\.96\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^199\.96\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^202\.160\.128\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^202\.160\.129\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^202\.160\.130\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^202\.160\.131\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^209\.237\.192\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^64\.63\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^69\.195\.(.*)$ # LinedIn IP RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^108\.174\.2\.(.*)$ # Google IPs RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^66\.249(.*)$ # Allow bing RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.77\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^157\.55\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^157\.56\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^13\.66(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^13\.67\.10\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^13\.69\.66\.24(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^13\.71\.172\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^139\.217\.52\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^191\.233\.204\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^20\.36\.108\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^20\.43\.120\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^207\.46\.13\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.77\.167\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^52\.167\.144\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^157\.55\.39\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^199\.30\.24\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^199\.30\.25\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^20\.125\.163\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^20\.74\.197\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^20\.79\.107\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.77\.139\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.77\.188\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.77\.189\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.77\.190\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.77\.191\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.77\.202\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.79\.131\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^40\.79\.186\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^51\.105\.67\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^52\.231\.148\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^65\.55\.210\.(.*)$ RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^72\.14\.(.*)$ # check that file exists RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f # check for requested file types # include additional file types here RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} \.(jpeg|JPEG|jpe|JPE|jpg|JPG|gif|GIF|png|PNG|mng|MNG|svg|SVG|IMG|img|webp|WEBP)$ [NC] # allow blank referrer requests RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$ # allow all requests from your domain # edit the domain to match your own RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^https?://([^.]+\.)?example\.
