  Hi,

  I cant replicate it on my machine – but some users have reported seeing square boxes in different areas of theme (top nav bar – e.g. bag / search icons) and on rev sliders – instead of font awesome icons.

  Screen shots attached

  We are using a custom font in our theme – implemented with css below (which was recommended on this forum)

  @font-face {
  font-family: Larsseit;
  src: url(https://www.reikokaneko.co.uk/wp-content/themes/neighborhood-child/fonts/2E6300_1_0.woff
  );
  font-weight: normal ;
  }
  :not(i) {
      font-family: 'Larsseit' !important;
  }

  Any ideas what is causing this and why it only shows up for some users?

  Many thanks,

  C

  Hi,
  Please paste this code at functions.php of child theme.

  function sf_enqueue_styles_new(){
  wp_deregister_style('fontawesome-css');
  wp_dequeue_style( 'fontawesome-css' );
  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); 
  
  

  Thanks
  Mohammad

  Hi,

  Is there any specific page this happens on, I cannot replicate it.

  Mohammad’s code, essentially adds fontAwesome icons to your site from their delivery network.

  I notice you are using https, do you have the http plugin installed on your site?

  The plugin helps force elements to be loaded over https rather than http. Sometimes browsers block the font icons for this reason and you get no icon loaded. Though, everything looks good on the site currently.

  We also check the outputted URL’s to detect if content is needed to be served over https.

  If you notice anything, please let us know.

  Hi I don’t think we need the extra https plugin – we currently have solved all remaining mixed content errors.

  Cant we just load the icons from a hard https link if that is the problem.

  Thanks

  Hi Chris,

  The icons should be loading over https already, as standard.

  Cheers,
  David.
