    Hi

    Font awesome is very nice, but very limiting. I want to be able to use Ionicons ( https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons ), and at first installation seemed easy. I am using the supreme child theme, and therefore I put everything in the /public_html/wp-content/themes/supreme-directory/ directory

    1. Download and extract the font pack ( easy peazy)
    2. Copy the ionicons.css to your project ( put it in the supreme directory folder)
    3. Copy the fonts folder to your project ( copied this to the Supreme directory forlder)
    4. Ensure the font urls within ionicons.css properly reference the fonts path within your project.( Looks right–> font-family: “Ionicons”; src: url(“../fonts/ionicons.eot?v=2.0.0”); src: url(“../fonts/ionicons.eot?v=2.0.0#iefix”) )
    5. Include a reference to the ionicons.css file from every webpage you need to use it.

    What?? How do I do that?

    Does anybody have any experience with Ionicons that can give me some help? I am probably making a few mistakes.

    Thank you
    Louis

    Hi,

    the way you are doing it right now, you’ll lose everything after the 1st theme update.

    You should place the ionicons files in the root of your website and enqueue the css via code snippet plugin.

    I asked to the developers to create a quick step by step tutorial about this and share it here.

    They’ll let you know asap.

    Thanks
