  Ahoy,

  I’m wondering how I can update available Font Awesome Icons?

  There are several I’d like to be using from version 4.2 but when I use the assigned shortcode, nothing appears on my page. Please-please, instructions on how to update would be fantastic.

  Thanks for the great theme! 🙂

  function sf_enqueue_styles_new(){
  wp_deregister_style('fontawesome');

  wp_register_style('fontawesomeNew', '//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.2.0/css/font-awesome.min.css', array(), NULL, 'all');

  Thanks Mohammed.

  I’m afraid I’m quite the newbie…

  Am I adding this code to the end of the functions.php, down the bottom? Or ammending existing mention of fontawesome?

  Help!

  Thanks 🙂

  Hi Mohammed,

  Big thanks…but again…rookie status kicks into play.

  Attempted 2 variations, details below. Can you please advise further?

  Big thanks, much appreciate your bearing with me!

  —

  1. ADDED CODE TO BOTTOM OF FUNCTION.PHP, UNDERNEATH FINAL BIT OF CODE. CREATED ERROR (ATTACHED) AND ICONS DIDN’T APPEAR (ATTACHED). EXAMPLE:

  }
  if (class_exists(‘Envato_WP_Toolkit’)) {
  add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘sf_envato_toolkit_admin_init’ );
  }
  ?>
  function sf_enqueue_styles_new(){
  wp_deregister_style(‘fontawesome’);
  wp_dequeue_style( ‘fontawesome’ )
  wp_register_style(‘fontawesomeNew’, ‘//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.2.0/css/font-awesome.min.css’, array(), NULL, ‘all’);
  wp_enqueue_style(‘fontawesomeNew’);
  }
  add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘sf_enqueue_styles_new’, 111);

  2. ADDED CODE TO BOTTOM OF FUNCTIONS.PHP, BEFORE FINAL BIT OF CODE. IT CRASHED THE SITE (NO DOUBT YOU’RE NOT SURPRISED!), HAD TO DELETE VIA FTP. EXAMPLE:

  }
  if (class_exists(‘Envato_WP_Toolkit’)) {
  add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘sf_envato_toolkit_admin_init’ );
  }
  function sf_enqueue_styles_new(){
  wp_deregister_style(‘fontawesome’);
  wp_dequeue_style( ‘fontawesome’ )
  wp_register_style(‘fontawesomeNew’, ‘//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.2.0/css/font-awesome.min.css’, array(), NULL, ‘all’);
  wp_enqueue_style(‘fontawesomeNew’);
  }
  add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘sf_enqueue_styles_new’, 111);
  ?>
