All of them will show in HTML preview (or in “title” for TAB) … even when I apply some styling to it, like colour/size … all is fine on preview. But once I hit the DONE -> Publish Changes they won’t be displayed.
I’ve looked through the support here and haven’t found a solution, turned off all other plugins like it was suggested here, clear cash in the BB settings, CHROME Cache but no luck. Oh … forgot to mention that when I tried the FA icons, it worked without any problems Am I missing something, or doing it wrong ?
Add : How to check, if it’s a THEME related issue ? As I tried the suggestion from Danny (regards adding an icon to header menu through “Custom link”) … and again, while in the EDITING mode I can see it there - but once DONE>Publish … it’s gone. And that still with all plugins off.
-that is the page, where you should see a “truck” icon in the menu between CMK - FAQ
-tabs module where “truck” is in the LABEL and “car” in the CONTENT
you won’t see it, until you will be in BB/Page Builder. Will send you “PrtScr” of my two screens together where you can see the CODE I’m using as well - in email : subject KAMA ICON
You icons work fine on my local dev. It seems the styling for the icons aren’t loaded when on the frontend. Can you try disabling all plugins on your site except BB and see if it works? Also, can you check if your hosting has server side caching set up?
I did disabling all the plugins before and did that again, but without any luck. Called go Daddy regards your “server side caching” question and they said : I don’t have any “caching plan” on my hosting. They told to try adding “?nocache=1” in the URL, but still the same effect.
Now, if you have a look … I’ve added “FA” icons there instead. They do work. I’ve replaced the “custom link” in menu - the one you created and you can see, that FA icon is working.
I’m thinking (as a noob) if it’s not the Theme that overrides some of your settings? If I’m not mistaken the Theme is using “FA” icons as well. I did contact them as well (when I started this thread) but their support is far away from yours
When I have added this into the html of the tab, it is working - even on the menu on top. So it more likely confirms, that once I hit DONE/publish on BB … it kind of looses the reference to my custom font.
That is indeed the issue, the font’s CSS file is not loaded on the frontend. Can you try reuploading the icons and see if it works? Lastly, can you switch to a different theme? You can try one of those free TwentyX themes and see if it makes a difference.
Hi Ben … I did re_upload the zip file several times before, so I know, this is not the case. Though haven’t thought about switching the themes. Did that after your recommendations and same result … I can’t see icons after hitting “done>publish”.
Kind reminder - please, don’t get “confused” on that TESTING PAGE where it is showing everything now, as there is still the “URL” provided by Icomoon.
I understand what your issue is now and how you can resolve it. When you upload a custom icon pack, the builder will look for an icon field being used in a module.
I believe Ben didn’t encounter your issue as he did the same as me and used a module with an icon field such as the Icon Group module. If you use the Icon group module on your site, you should have no issue.
However, if you wish to use those custom icons in your menu, using a module with no icon field such as the HTML module or in your pages/posts. You will need to enqueue the file. To do this follow the instructions on this article. Read the Adding Icon Fonts in WordPress Manually section of the article (to the bottom).
