user images not working on Home Assistant Install
Adding images to the /homarr/icons/ folder will not appear on Homarr.
I've tried using PNG, SVG, WEBP, reducing Res, every variation of slash when trying to access an image in icons folder in HA but no luck. Anyone else having this issue?

Hi, did you restart the container after it?

Icon search
Can you also show your mount arguments?
Yup, restarted both Home Assistant and Homarr.
Wait, are you running from Home Assistant?
Using the addons?
I cant see the mount arguments since its installed directly through home assistant but I did find the Homarr folder
yeah! I used to use Docker but it hasnt been reliable, especially with saving data but the icon images worked then
@Croome can you look into this? As far as I remember, you are responsible for the addon, correct?
I am sadly unable help because my HomeAssistant is running containered. Therefore, I can't use Addons.
I will look into it. Will get back to you shortly
Thanks, I just wanted to know if it was user error or a bug!
Can you try updating the addon now? The folder where you should place the icon is /share/homarr/icon (without an s in the end as that seems to be protected in some way)
The path in homarr is still /icons/14.svg etc.
I updated, created an icon folder, moved all photos there (to help debug) and then restarted. It didnt work so then I moved a couple unique named photos back to /share/homarr/icons and those worked
So I guess the stock /share/homarr/icons folder works but not /share/homarr/icon. Either way my issue is solved but wow thanks for the speedy replies.
And the file that works are not in /share/homarr/icon as well right now?
Because /share/homarr/icons should really not work at all right now
Just curious for my own debugging 🙂
Sorry I thought they were but testing it further made me realize that icons cannot be accessed within /share/homarr/icons but having a copy of each doesn't change behaviour.
The only thing left not to function is the Favicon but I think thats to do with my photos dimensions. Would be awesome if it wrote the supported formats and dimensions in a little textbox under image selection.
Yup it was my favicons dimensions. Thanks for all your help!
Great! Thank you for reporting the issue 🙂
Thanks for taking care of it, @Croome . Can we mark this as solved?
Yes, it's solved
