If you dont get some icons from Font Awesome read this!

Hello,

I had a problem. I wanted to use Youtube icon from Font Awesome but insdead of icon I got squere. That happened with bunch of them. I tried lots of things and I gave up.

Today I wanted to implement new font to the website and I saw the Font Awesome in the /fonts folder and that's when I got it.

All you need to do is this:
1. Download the latest version of Font Awesome from http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/
2. Unpack it and from the folder /fonts copy all the files (five of them) to ROOT/gk_creativity/fonts (overwrite them)

That's it! You can find the character code from here - http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/cheatsheet/
Just replace "&#x" with "\"

example:  should be \f00b in the gk.stuff.css

I hope this helps someone.

Cheers,
Gorast

It will work with most of the fonts, but our dev team found that some of the glyphs have different #code soe they decided not to replace old font files with new ones.
As long as it suits your needs its ok.

Also - with new templates we use new font awesome styles and files.

Don't know why people at Font Awesome would change the #code (that makes no sense) but with the current font that was on Creativity, the YouTube icons weren't present so this fixed that.

I hope this thread will be searchable, I have already adviced to one user to replace font files, but to use 3.2.1 version.
From what you say - files from 4.0.3 works well also?

Yup. All of the template native + Youtube icons.
