Good NY Morning and Happy Friday Ciaran,

I've fallen in love with your J51_Icon module and have taken out a subscription to font awesome.

I'm wondering the best way to bring in FA professional icons that I want to use with the icon module.

I reached out to them and they said to create a kit and put it in the header but I'm not sure if that's applicable or how to do it for the icon module.

Regards
John

Hi John

I am assuming Font Awesome would provide a script tag to load your icon kit from a CDN. This tag can be added to your templates index.php, inside the head tags. Or if you are using a Joomla51 template, add to the Head Custom Code field of your templates parameters (Extensions -> Template Manager -> YourTemplate -> Custom Code -> Head Custom Code)...

Hi Ciaran

I'm almost there but I need your help.

I added the icon kits and it wasn't working. I reached out to Font Awesome and they told me I need to set the font family to "Font Awesome 6 Pro". I've attached the screencap they sent me.

Is it possible to do this with some css coding in the template?

Thanks
John

Hello

To amend try adding the following to the Custom CSS field of your templates parameters (Extensions -> Templates -> [YourTemplateStyle] -> Custom CSS)....

[class^="fa-"]::before, [class*=" fa-"]::before {

    font-family: "Font Awesome 6 Pro" !important;

    font-weight: 400;

    font-style: normal;

}
