I am trying to get the font awesome icons to work in the marketing blocks with adaptable theme. Tried adding the <i class="fa fa-camera-retro fa-2x"></i> style code to html and it just gets stripped out. Installed font awesome filter and tried using the [fa-camera-retro] but it does not convert...
Hi You need the code that starts with &
Camera is []
More about this is the README for that filter.
Awesome Font Cheatsheet is HERE
PS:
I am assuming you have you set your site to allow HTML in headings and stuff?
Finally got it - brain freeze time I guess! Had not enabled the plugin - finally found that [fa-camera] format works. Sorry for wasting your guys' time!
Hi Mary,
I am a moodle beginner and I am having the same issue as emma what steps do I need to do to get the awesome fonts working in the marketing blocks?
Cheers,
Quentin.
Open the Adaptable directory in your moodle site and read the README.txt to see how to add Font Awesome to your Adaptable theme.
Hi Fernando,
I am adding this to a marketing Box. and I have added this code to the test marketing box I am trying.
<div style="text-align:center; background: #e6e6e6; height: 240px; padding: 7px;">
<i class="fa fa-paint-brush fa-5x" style="color: #009688;"></i>
<h3>Title </h3>
<div style="text-align:center;">Add your text here.</div>
</div>
but when I save it the line:
<i class="fa fa-paint-brush fa-5x" style="color: #009688;"></i>
is then Stripped from the Code.
So not sure what is happening?
Thanks in Advance.

Add your text here.
Seemed to work ok here?
I use Tiny MCE
Do not use Atto as editor. Use TinyMCE instead.
I did discover that it would not work with TinyMCE but only with Atto.
Emma, Just for the sake of test, try loading FontAwesome from CDN giving reference to FA-CDN in head and see if it still breaks. Use any of the codes mentioned in Adaptable README.TXT (Like Mary mentioned) and last time I did it was working well.
