I noticed the favicons are broken for some of our websites in the onebox preview of a link.

For example:

On this website ([https://invantive.com/products/invantive-control-for-excel.html](https://invantive.com/products/invantive-control-for-excel.html)) the favicon URL is:

`<link rel="shortcut icon" href="https://invantive.com/favicon.ico">`

But the broken favicon in the preview shows the following favicon URL:

`<img src="https://invantive.com/products/invantive-control-for-excel.html/favicon.ico" class="site-icon">`

It seems to simply take the link URL and adding ‘/favicon.ico’ to the end of that path.

Any idea how to fix this?

Joshua
