Hello.

It would be a great feature to use Font Awesome (http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/) in Themler.
Maybe with shortcodes or better - with GUI option (to view all icons inside Themler and choice it to insert).

To users: please vote for this topic if you have interest in this feature.

Hi Vitality, this is actually already integrated in a themler widget.

If you go to : "Insert" - "Navigation" - "Icon Link" and drag it to themler, you will actually get a standalone font awesome element in which you can pick any icon you want :)

I hope this helps you.

I am actually interested in using fontawesome links in menu items.... i hope it will be integrated sometime :)

Vitaliy,

All available icons are listed here:
http://answers.billiondigital.com/articles/3942/icons-shortcode

You can use them with shortcode or through the Themler UI: using IconLink or icon selection popup of the controls that support icons.

Thank you,
Olivia

Thanks for reply and hint, shaulhadar.

themler, you will actually get a standalone font awesome element in
which you can pick any icon you want :)

How I can see - there is many icons, but it's actually not from Font Awesome library...

Here is full list of Font Awesome icons: http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/

Or I something miss? )

Vitaliy,

You just need to manually insert

<i class="icon-adjust"></i>

in the place where you want the icon to appear. This could be HTML control, Text/TextGroup control on HTML tab or via CMS admin panel (post html source, text widget. etc.)

This is our own library ('Billion Web Font') similar to Font Awesome.

Thank you,
Olivia

You should maybe consider to switch to Font Awesome. FA has everything that is needed on most websites. You can spare time and help them if you want to add some special icon. Just write it on Github.

Compare this (same browser) :

http://answers.themler.com/articles/3942/icons-shortcode

http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/

Your icons have jagged edges, FA icons dont have it.
No matter what I tried could not fix them. Works anyhow with default size. As soon font-size is above 20px you see clearly jagged edges.

Dont know if you generate your icons here:
https://icomoon.io/

But icons from Icomoon have not jagged edges. (when is default size, or enlarged)

https://icomoon.io/app/#/select

Here you can see differences between WordPress Dashicons SVG and Themler SVG icons. Same browser, same zoom.

First 2 screens are Dashicons, third is Themler.

Hi,

Thank you for the reporting this issue.
Looks like it happens in Chrome and Safari only.
We'll fix this issue in Chrome in the near future. Not sure about Safari. FA looks bad in Safari too.

Thank you,
Olivia

I cant find anymore icon for URL:

enter image description here

Why do you bother with your own icons. Use Fontawesome. There is no better around. And let other developers work for you.
Fontawesome has huge and vibrant community.

If you miss some icons take back Bootstrap native glyphicons:

  • Go here and deactivate all options except glyphicons:
    http://getbootstrap.com/customize/
  • Download ZIP file
  • Extract all SVG files inside theme "fonts" folder
  • Take CSS code from ZIP (only part for glyphicons, other code can give you problems) and paste it inside Themler -> Settings -> Additional CSS.
  • Remove one bullet from paths:

    @font-face {
    font-family: 'Glyphicons Halflings';
    src: url('./fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot');
    src: url('./fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), url('./fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff2') format('woff2'), url('./fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff') format('woff'), url('./fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.ttf') format('truetype'), url('./fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.svg#glyphicons_halflingsregular') format('svg');
    }

  • Use icon codes:
    http://getbootstrap.com/components/#glyphicons

Hello, I am really having issues with the limited icon set you offer. We need to stay up-to-date with this better.

Any idea why you choose a stand alone icon system vs one that is widely used and has 100x more option?

Could support address this?

At least can you add and update your font set? Google + can go and you could add or update others. After using font awesome on a different site I am amazed how little variety there is in Themler.

Please update this!
