Icon Design Changesĭid you know that our icons designs may subtly change from version to version? Have a look at these changes in the user and users icons over time.
#SVG FONT PICKER CODE#
And if you're using our SVG technology, there are no Web Font files, but the same CSS style prefix tells our JavaScript code which style of icon to render as an SVG.
With Web Fonts, the style prefix on an tag doesn't necessarily select a corresponding Web Font. In Version 5, we added the ability to add icons as SVGs as well as the traditional Font Awesome Web Fonts. SVG technology as an alternative to Web Fonts The CSS rules handle all of that automatically for you: you just use the style prefix you want,Īnd it loads the correct Web Font files to display the icon in your chosen style. In Version 6 (when you're using the Web Font technology-we'll get to SVG next), each of these various style prefixes correspond to different Web Fonts! These are defined by multiple CSS style "prefix" classes, replacing the simple fa with one of a variety of styles.Īny old uses of fa, the V4 way, are automatically understood in v5 and v6 as fa-solid. Where Version 4 always used the fa class to indicate the underlying CSS attribute font-family: FontAwesome for loading the Font Awesome webfont, Version 5 and now Version 6 introduced a few new concepts: Multiple Stylesįont Awesome 5 and above have multiple styles, and Version 6 is adds multiple families. The way Font Awesome Version 4 used CSS classes is a little different from the way Font Awesome Version 5 and above use them. Normally, a theme or plugin puts icons on the page, or enables you to do so, by adding elements with approprate CSS classes. Answer: probably not, usually not, but your mileage may vary. "If I remove these, won't it break my theme or those plugins that rely on them?" They're the, , or elements that are being added to your pages by your theme or plugins, which load versions of Font Awesome other than the one you intend, and which will create chaos by doing so. Just what are these conflicting elements that you're removing here? Luckily for you, Version 4 compatibility is baked in to Kits! So set up your Kit in WordPress and you're done. When the conflicts you remove include Font Awesome Version 4, and your theme or plugins reference icons by names that changed between Version 4 and Version 6. That's a common CDN URL for loading Font Awesome 4.7.0.įa_custom_remove_conflicts ( ) Add Version 4 Compatibility 7ca699f29404dcdb477ffe225710067f - This is the hash for the contents of the 4.7.0 font-awesome.css file.In any case, hopefully it makes it more clear how you can add more as you see fit. We've got you started with two of them that really would conflict with Font Awesome 6 if they were present in your page, so you might as well leave them in the blocklist. Now, copy the following code into your functions.php, after the code above, adding an md5 hash to this "blocklist", for each conflict that you want the above code above to remove for you. */ if ( ! function_exists ( 'fa_custom_remove_conflicts' ) )
