Per-project favicons in JIRA Cloud

Question

Hi all,

The combination of JIRA projects and browser tabs that I have open at all times makes it very difficult to instantly navigate to the JIRA project that I'm interested in in the browser. A straightforward solution for this would be to allow us to have custom favicons on a per-project level, or to use the project avatar as the favicon.

I'm trying to figure out how to do this on JIRA Cloud. For on-prem, there is a great plugin called Favicon that does exactly what I'm looking for, but alas, it doesn't work on JIRA cloud. Is there a way to accomplish this on JIRA Cloud?

Thanks!

Joe

Yeah, it's gone for me too. What the heck?

Did this feature go away for everyone else? Just as I was getting used to it! 😢

I am seeing this change too, but it's not desired for here.

Used to be the favicon we set globally showed up as the tab favicon for all projects. Now the individual project avatar is showing up as the favicon for each project, as of a few weeks ago.

Do you know if this was an intentional change, and how I might revert it? (Without having to over-ride the project avatar for each project, with our desired global favicon)?
