Comment From: dosubot[bot]
The APP_ICON config variable is still present in Superset, but in recent versions (including 6.0.0rc1/master), it is no longer actively used for rendering the logo in the UI. Branding and logo display logic has moved to other config variables and frontend components, such as LOGO_RIGHT_TEXT, LOGO_TARGET_PATH, and LOGO_TOOLTIP, as well as the Menu component in the frontend. There is no evidence that THEME_DEFAULT or THEME_DARK are supported config variables for logo customization, and logo rendering is not theme-aware by default. To customize the logo, you should continue to set APP_ICON in your superset_config.py, but if it is not displaying, check for static asset issues (such as build status, permissions, or reverse proxy config) and ensure your image path is correct. If the logo still does not appear, it may be due to recent changes in how branding is handled, and further frontend or backend changes may be required for advanced customization.
