Troubleshooting

How do I make sure the QR Code is working?

You can always test the QR Code before distributing or sharing the code. Just scan the code with your smartphone to ensure the post is visible.

My QR code shows my site icon instead of my logo.

QR Post Code uses your site icon (favicon) for the center of the QR code. If your site has no site icon, Jetpack uses your site logo instead. If your site has neither, Jetpack uses the Jetpack logo.

To change the image in your QR code, change your site icon.

If you recently changed your site icon, it may take a few seconds for the QR code to update. If the new icon still doesn’t appear, clear your browser cache.
