My problem is that I have a logo in my forum, which only shows in Microsoft Edge/Internet Explorer, but not in Chrome.
The logo format is .svg.
You can check it out, open this link with Chrome and Edge, you'll see the logo in Edge only:

it also works just fine in firefox.

I would suggest that you convert it to a different file format like png and see what happens.
since it works everywhere but chrome that would certainly suggest that it is a problem with the chrome browser.
chrome has a lot of problems since the last few updates to the browser.

you probably need to ask in a chrome forum about how to fix its issues.

Chrome doesn't have a problem with displaying svg images it must be something with the style blocking it.

Then why is it the only browser that does not show it?

Looks like the site is currently solved using a true .PNG version of the logo. Not sure what your prior non-working .SVG image actually was, but the one at https://forum.sa-pp.com/styles/quarto_a ... e_logo.svg looks like it's an .SVG that contains only a PNG bitmap and no actual vector image. In whatever scenario wasn't working, makes me wonder if the vector image (or absence thereof) is what was being rendered.

Viewing the bitmap-based https://forum.sa-pp.com/styles/quarto_a ... e_logo.svg off your site now looks fine in Chrome 69.0.3497.100 Windows 10 x64 from here, for what it's worth; if that .SVG is even related to the one you were having issue with.

The reference to "maybe styles" in the face of a Chrome-specific behavior you're seeing was to suggest that something agent-specific (browser-specific) in the CSS was overriding or dropping the image only in specific circumstances. Because I agree, Chrome has no general issue in being able to handle SVG.

Actually I think it was not working because I set the wrong resolution in common.css, which I fixed while changing to the .png logo. Anyway I'm leaving the .png logo as it looks better than the svg one.
Thanks for your help.
