I have a website: My Website

it is hosted on godaddy, it has an preload intro animation using .svg file and it is not showing, also the svg logo in my footer.

I already tried everything, like adding a .svg MIME type in my web.config, editing my .htaccess but wasn't able to solve it.

Do you have any suggestion on what might be the solution for this?

Your svg files are served with MIME-Type application/octet-stream, but should be served with image/svg+xml. Try in your .htaccess "AddType image/svg+xml"

  • garcestechnology.com/wp-content/themes/gt2014/images/logo/… and the other SVG are still served with "Content-Type: application/octet-stream". So maybe you don't have the rights to define MimeTypes in your .htaccess

You are probably missing "xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" as an attribute attribute of the root element. Your svg tag should look START this:
