Font Awesome

Post by chunkee »

Hello,
I am trying to get Font Awesome to work with my project (with some bootstrap also.) For some reason it renders fine on the preview, there are no warnings in the build, but the icons are not displaying.

Here is what I have tried in the head of my master page.

<link href="../../font-awesome-4.2.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" type="text/css" />

I also have it linked in the flare CSS.

and have tried with a CDN link

<link href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.2.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />

Not sure what I am doing wrong here. Any suggestions? Should not just the linking in the stylesheet be enough?

Works fine for me.

At a guess, you've probably set the target to use a master stylesheet - this setting removes all other stylesheet links from the output, so it only includes a single link to the master stylesheet.

If you don't set a master stylesheet, you'll be able to have multiple CSS files linked in the topic or master page.

If you need to set a master stylesheet, then you'll need to include links any other stylesheets (like Awesome) inside your master stylesheet, by using the @import statement.
