New version of Font awesome

This support request was posted in Smart by MarcinW

  • Hi,

    I need to use Gitter icon – I’ve added it to my social media list, filled all the details but it doesn’t work.

    I’ve checked that the problem is with a version of Font Awesome CSS files (/wp-content/themes/smart/includes/assets/css/font-awesome.min.css). It’s a 4.7.0 version and it doesn’t contain Gitter icon code (f426 – https://fontawesome.com/icons/gitter?style=brands) which has been added in 5.0 version.

    Is there some chance to update those files (CSS and fonts) manualy?

    Regards,
    Marcin

    Hello Marcin,

    Thank you for writing. I hope you are doing well.

    Yes, you can download the files from the FontAwesome website and replace the ones that come with the theme, with the new ones. You will have to replace the icon font files and the stylesheets.

    Best,
    Juan.

    Thanks for you message but it doesn’t work:-( I don’t know what I can do more:

    I made such changes:
    1) Changed file /wp-content/themes/smart/includes/assets/css/font-awesome.min.css to newer version
    2) Uploaded new fonts to /wp-content/themes/smart/includes/assets/fonts/
    3) Added to CSS file links to new font files

    My mistake – sorry. It works now.

    I’m happy to hear that! 🙂

    Have a nice day,
    Juan.
