Display site icon in results?

[munoz]

My search covers different URLs, and I would like to display the URLs icon in the results.

Similar to this:

The walker doesn't record site favicons. You could use XSL results style and modify the style sheet to grab the favicon directly from each site.

Yeah, that might be good.
Could you maybe guide me to how do do that?
A reference page or something?

Something like this will construct the img tag for favicon.ico:

<img height="16" width="16" alt="">
<xsl:attribute name="src">
<xsl:value-of select="substring-before(Url,'://')"/>
<xsl:text>://</xsl:text>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="substring-before(substring-after(Url, '://'),'/')=''">
<xsl:value-of select="substring-after(Url, '://')"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="substring-before(substring-after(Url, '://'),'/')"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
<xsl:text>/favicon.ico</xsl:text>
</xsl:attribute>
</img>

You'll probably want to add that somewhere in the ResultTitle template.

Oh thank you!!!! That works!!!

For most of the URLS, and of course I have one where the ico is not in the root.
How can I add something to address that?

The .ico is under "URL/wp-content/themes/nabsd/"

(I have never used .xsl before in my life, so all this is new to me)

You'd have to compare Url to your prefix and do different behavior based on match/nomatch. Something like below (untested) before <xsl:text>/favicon.ico</xsl:text>

<xsl:if test="contains(Url,'/wp-content/themes/nabsd/')">
<xsl:text>/wp-content/themes/nabsd</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
