Font Awesome

The support for Font Awesome is broken in Firefox. Turns out they're following the spec, but there is a way to make it work.

Re: Font Awesome

What version of Firefox are you running? Totally fine when I visit CE3 pages in Firefox.

Firefox 19

For example the ^ (up arrow that appears next to the "Back to the top" in the footer) shows up at a little box with F0D8 in it.

This happens to me on my own test site, and your demo site. <http://ce3.theturninggate.net/galleries.php>

All the social icons, arrows, etc are all little boxes with tiny hex code in them.

I wonder if it's one of my security settings, or maybe one of my security plug ins.

You mean it's working for you (like Matt), or not (like me).

Re: Font Awesome

it's working for me. Sorry, I guess that wasn't all that clear. It's getting past my bedtime smile

Re: Font Awesome

Ah - I found the setting.

Content > Advanced > Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above

I have that set off because I keep finding so many sites with terrible fonts, or worse really tiny fonts that I can't read LOL.


BTW - I happened to look at the Web Console, and a lot of warnings and errors logged for <http://ce3.theturninggate.net/>. Never tried that before, so I can't say if this is "normal."

Re: Font Awesome

The only errors that I see logged on the promo site are from the social networking Share buttons, which sadly is normal. Share buttons are typically loaded with crap. Blame Facebook.
