    Hello. Is it possible to use Font Awesome instead of Entypo? Not sure why Entypo was selected, since Font Awesome has many more icons, especially for our line of business. If not, is it possible to somehow add in the Font Awesome icons to the existing set? Thanks!

    I didn’t test it but you can try to generate your own font files with fontello: http://fontello.com/ and then replace the default files located in enfoldconfig-templatebuilderavia-template-builderassetsfonts with your custom files. Please make a backup of the old files because I’m not sure if it works out…

    Hi, I’m try to add more icon font, but without lucky. I’ve tried to export new collection from fontello.com and simply replace original files but it results in wrong icons show on my site and no new icons showed in the builder part.

    Some more suggestion on how to use different sets of font icons? The .php files into the folder (enfoldconfig-templatebuilderavia-template-builderassetsfonts) contains list of code to use in builder, should I replace with one indexing all the icons exported from fontello?

    Thanks for the support.

    Yes, you need to update wp-contentthemesenfoldconfig-templatebuilderavia-template-builderassetsfontsentypo-fontello-charmap.php too. Some icons are (like the search icon, social icons, etc.) are also used by the theme – the config array can be found in functions.php:

    $avia_config['font_icons'] = array(
    
'search'  	=> '🔍',       	//36
    
'standard' 	=> '✎',        	//6
    
'link'    	=> '🔗',       	//40
    
'image'    	=> '📷',      	//46
    
'audio'    	=> '♪',        	//51
    
'quote'   	=> '❞',        	//33
    
'gallery'   => '🌄',     	//145
    
'video'   	=> '🎬',       	//146
    
'info'    	=> 'ℹ',         	//120
    
'next'    	=> '',        	//190

    Sorry, maybe I didn’t understand but, if I create my own collection of icons from fontello.com how can I update the array? Where should I find the codes for each icon?

    Tbh I’m not sure how Kriesi created the entypo-fontello-charmap.php. Maybe he used a script or he just looked up the unicodes here: http://www.entypo.com/characters/ – I’ll mark this thread for him.

    Hey!

    Currently not possible to add new icons. It seems the fontello team changed something since I cant even export the same font and make it work with the current charmap which was initially taken from entypo.com. I will need to create a new charmap and font file during the next weeks.
