Anyone know how I can use the social icons from Creativity template on the Store Box template. I have copied the module code and the .css to the appropriate places in Store Box but it does not display the icons. Thinking I need the graphic icons but could not find them if they exist.

Hi

Icons are not added as images, but as a char:

Code: Select all
.gkTeamOverlay a[data-type="fb"]:before {
    content: "";
}
.gkTeamOverlay a[data-type="twitter"]:before {
    content: "";
}
.gkTeamOverlay a[data-type="gplus"]:before {
    content: "";
}


You will find this code in /css/gk_stuff.css

I gather that I need to install font awesome for the .css to work properly. I am using template Store Box and have included the font-awsome.css file from within template Creativity but not sure how to make it be included on pages. Any idea on how to make sure it is written in the header of each page that uses it in joomla 3.0?

Thanks!

You need to compare code on header.php file where proper CSS files are loaded.
