Fontawesome icons in forum topics


Recommended Posts

Hello,

i've added the plugin that allows fontawesome icons in HTML.
But when i try to add font awesome icons in the blog section or in a regular forum thread it doesn't work.
Even when you go into the 'code' part and paste it there. It removes the code and doesnt display. 

Any fix or how can i make this work?

OK - that plugin doesn't provide this:

....that allows fontawesome icons in HTML

as the above is already possible...fontawesome 4.7 is already included with IPS. The plugin just allows FontAwesome 5 to also be used.

Your actual issue is probably that the places you are trying to use the code doesn't allow HTML to be used.

Elaborate on what you mean by all this:

Where are you using the code exactly?

The IPS app "Blogs" , when i add a new blog then switch to Source. Then i add the code posted above into all the HTML that's already there.

+ Why can't we put those Fontawesome icons in the title of a thread?

Do this instead - the Editor strips empty elements, which is what the <i></i> is...the non-breaking space sorts that for you.


<i class="fa fa-bomb">&nbsp;</i>

 

Thanks! This does work!! 

Is it possible to get these icons in the title of an thread/blog aswell ?
