🌟 Enhance Your Fleetwire Site with a Favicon and Social Sharing Card!



Make your Fleetwire site stand out by adding a favicon and social sharing card image! A favicon gives your site a branded icon in browser tabs, while a social sharing card ensures your links look professional when shared on social media. These small touches boost your brand’s visibility and create a polished experience for your customers. Let’s set them up in a few easy steps!


🎯 Why Add a Favicon and Social Sharing Card?



Customizing your favicon and social sharing card in Fleetwire offers several benefits:

Brand Recognition: A favicon reinforces your brand in browser tabs and bookmarks.
Professional Sharing: A social sharing card makes your links visually appealing on platforms like Twitter, Facebook, or LinkedIn.
Improved SEO: Social cards can increase click-through rates when your catalog page is shared, driving more traffic.
Consistent Experience: Aligns with your branding efforts, like your custom domain or email settings.

Note: These settings apply to your Fleetwire catalog page (e.g., testcompany.fleetwire.io or your custom domain), enhancing its look across the web.


đź›  How to Add a Favicon and Social Sharing Card



Follow these steps to upload your favicon and social sharing card images in Fleetwire.

Step 1: Access General Settings



In your Fleetwire dashboard, go to Settings > General.
Scroll to the Social section, where you can manage your favicon and social sharing card images.

Pro Tip: The General Settings page also lets you manage other branding elements, similar to how you set a custom domain in Customizing Your Fleetwire Catalog Page.


Step 2: Upload Your Favicon



A favicon is a small icon (typically 16x16 or 32x32 pixels) that appears in browser tabs, bookmarks, and address bars.

In the Social section, find the Favicon option.
Click Upload and select your favicon image file (recommended format: .ico, .png, or .jpg).
Ensure the image meets browser requirements (e.g., square dimensions, at least 16x16 pixels).
Click Save to apply the favicon to your site.

Here’s what the favicon upload interface looks like in your dashboard.



Quick Tip: Test your favicon by opening your catalog page (e.g., testcompany.fleetwire.io) in a new browser tab to ensure it displays correctly.


Step 3: Upload Your Social Sharing Card Image



A social sharing card image appears when your catalog page URL is shared on social media, typically as a rectangular image with your brand’s visuals.

In the Social section, find the Social Sharing Card Image option.
Click Upload and select your image file (recommended dimensions: 1200x630 pixels, format: .png or .jpg).
Ensure the image includes your brand logo, a clear visual of your rental business, or a call-to-action (e.g., “Book Now!”).
Click Save to apply the social sharing card to your site.

Here’s what the social sharing card upload interface looks like in your dashboard.



Pro Tip: Share your catalog page URL on a social platform (e.g., Twitter) to test the card image and ensure it looks professional when shared.


Step 4: Test Your Changes



Visit your catalog page (find your URL in Online Reservations settings, e.g., testcompany.fleetwire.io).
Check the browser tab to confirm your favicon displays correctly.
Share your catalog page URL on a social media platform to verify the social sharing card image appears as expected.

Warning: If your favicon or social card doesn’t display, ensure the image formats and dimensions meet the requirements. Clear your browser cache or test in an incognito window to rule out caching issues.
