I have built a simple website with **Bukdu**. It works fine, except that it gives a 404 error message because it does not find favicon.ico. `favicon.ico` is stored in the base directory.

```julia
Bukdu Listening on 0.0.0.0:8004
INFO: GET WebController index 200 /
INFO: GET MissingController not_found 404 /favicon.ico

```

I am running the application from a [notebook](https://github.com/rbontekoe/TestAppliAR/blob/master/website.ipynb). The routes are:

```julia
routes() do
  get("/", WebController, index) # the index function is defined in the file functions.jl
  get("/agingreport", WebController, aging_report)
  get("/gl", WebController, gl)
end;

```

Tried to define an extra route but was not successful. How could I solve this?

you could `plug` the `Static` plugin.

```julia
plug(::Type{Static}; at::String, from::String, only::Union{Vector{String},Nothing}=nothing, indexfile="index.html")

```

see some examples:

@wookyoung, thank you. It works great.

I created a folder public with favicon.ico and changed the routes as follows:

```julia
routes() do
  get("/", WebController, index)
  get("/agingreport", WebController, aging_report)
  get("/gl", WebController, gl)
  plug(Plug.Static, at="/", from=normpath(@ __DIR__ , "public"))
end

```

Output:

```julia
Bukdu Listening on 0.0.0.0:8000
INFO: GET WebController index 200 /
INFO: GET StaticController readfile 200 /favicon.ico
INFO: GET WebController aging_report 200 /agingreport

```
