sobrenome Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Should be from CDN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ77 Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 Should be from CDN!yes then as new stuff gets added to the set we will automatically have them included. However, maybe IPB will include font awesome updates as part of their upgrade distributions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJ77 Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 After thinking a bit, Shouldn't this load from a CDN every time? Larger sites will really benefit from this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opentype Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 After thinking a bit, Shouldn't this load from a CDN every time? Larger sites will really benefit from this.Sure, but admins of larger sites choose their own CDN and set this up themselves. I actually don’t like that stock software makes all sorts of calls to all sorts of external sites if it’s not absolutely necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It stays in cache in your browser for 1 week .. I've checked the expire date .. you load a 93 kb font file one time .. it's not that bad .. .

sobrenome Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 But if it comes from the Font Awesome CDN it may be already cached when the user visited another website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
