March 19, 201511 yr Hi Been trying to work this out for ages. But its now clearly in 2 camps. mywebsite.com - font awesome icons show www.mywebsite.com - font awesome icons aren't showing The main head links reads <link href="catalog/view/javascript/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> is there a problem there? Anyone come across this one?
March 19, 201511 yr Assuming the path is correct from the document root have you tried adding a slash in font of the path? <link href="/catalog/view/javascript/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
March 20, 201511 yr Author No both just work as they are, never had an issue with www. or not before. I think the default, well the default is without www. for Opencart (the platform I'm using), but eitherway this doesn't answer the font awesome issue?

Anyone come across this one? I had this problem and it was simple enough, just add this in <link rel="stylesheet" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.3.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
March 20, 201511 yr Simple enough once Nock told you haha Yes agreed, was dead easy.. once you told me
March 20, 201511 yr One more tidbit to throw in here, if you use FA social media icons for things like Twitter/Facebook some ad blockers can stop them showing...
March 20, 201511 yr You cannot load fonts from a different domain. Make sure you don't use permalink to the css (or font files) in your code. LEt us know your website domain, maybe we will be able to help more.
March 20, 201511 yr You can load fonts from another domain, as cherrydesigns pointed out earlier. Sorry, my bad, I had a different issue in mind.
March 20, 201511 yr While icon fonts are ok and sort of do the job you should looking into svg's for icons they are far more powerful than icon fonts.
March 20, 201511 yr I don't know if this is related or of any help, but Firefox does not allow fonts to be used from the same domain. (You can circumvent this though).
