Missing favicons in Safari 'Favorites' section

Is there a way to fix this? The favicons display properly in the sidebar view.

Screenshots of both views are shown. Thanks for any suggestions.

Here is the 'general' Favorites view:

And the corresponding view in the Sidebar:

Try to clear the cache.

This is a known bug. When you clear the cache, symbols appear, once you visit the site, they disappear again. Or inverse.

Like the "Green Mind" avatar. A favorite album of mine in high school.

Anyway, so, it's a known issue but Apple has yet to fix it. I feel like it has been an issue in Safari for a number of years now. I know it's a fairly innocuous pet peeve, but, it's a pet peeve nonetheless.

Haven't noticed it until saw your post. Yup, same thing happen here.

The small ones are stored in ~/Library/Safari/Favicon Cache, the big ones are in ~/Library/Safari/Touch Icons Cache
