Hello,

I am trying to use Font Awesome on a custom page and the only way I can do it is by adding a line of code to header.php as you can see on images below:

1. The line of code added to header.php
2. The code of my custom page where I added the icon:
3. The result on custom page:

Is there another way where I don't need to edit this file?
Thanks!

Hello Celson,
Font Awesome is only used to display a few icons in DaDaBIK; you can use it without any additional files but you are probably limited to the icons provided by the (old) version we used. Not sure what is the effect if you also add that JS file.

Best,

You should be able to use it as it is documented, without adding anything special. As I said, I guess you were using icons which are not included, for example the icon fa fa-sign-in works.

Best,
