Hello,

I'm using this site: fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/ to place icons in the mega menu, however, almost none of the icons work. For example, icon-search works (which gives me a small magnify glass icon), but if I use something like fa-soccer-ball-o (which should display a soccer ball icon next to the menu item) it doesn't work. What am I missing?

Thanks,
Nader

Can I just check why you are not using the built in template support for the icons?

If you use the cdn from fontawesome you won't see them working on the admin side

Hi Paul,

Are you referring to the icons that have jb_...?

www.joomlabamboo.com/blog/how-to-joomla/how-to-add-icons-to-your-t3-mega-menu

Is a blog article on the subject

The article above uses the template icons so not jb type in this case
The icons won't be bang up to date as icons are released on a daily basis

Hi Paul,

That article references the font awesome web site I showed you in an earlier post, which is why I asked. The icons (for the most part) do not work when I try to add them. I know how to add them, but the icons simply do not appear or give me a white rectangular box as a substitute for an icon it doesn't support. Was just wondering if there is a list of icons that do work or should work with this template.

Thanks,
Nader

Hi Nader,

Can you perhaps list the icons you are trying to add and also a link for the site?

Thanks
Paul

Hi Paul,

Sure, the site is: jogasc.com/jogasc_beta/
The icon I'm most interested in (since it's a soccer web site) is: fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icon/futbol-o/

Thanks,
Nader

Right I think that icon isn't supported so you will need to either access the font awesome cdn

This thread covers it

or try the zen shortcodes extension from the Xero download page it has only been released this week so it isn't documented yet

Cheers
Paul

Ok thanks Paul

Nader

no problem

Enjoy your weekend
