    Gantry 4.1.15 and Fontawesome 3.2.1

    Posted 10 years 7 months ago
    • hi all,

      in order to get the new font awesome 3.2.1 support which has been included in gantry 4.1.15 to work in our previous templates you will have to edit the ../less/global.less file of your template.

      find:
      @import "jui/less/font-awesome.less";
      and change to:
      @import "jui/less/font-awesome/font-awesome.less";

      please note that this wont automatically work for all of our older templates. it's a pretty dramatic change in format and each template will have to be individually tested and updated as needed.

      kat :)

    • Is there a method to use the font awesome 3.2.1 support in pre-LESS templates like Ximenia?

    • After the last update Gantry I have no problems with the update FontAwesome. It works automatically in the background.
      Thank you.

    • ok, here are the instructions for

      ximenia
      fresco
      voxel
      diametric
      ionosphere
      clarion
      halcyon
      visage
      enigma
      momentum
      radiance
      ...
      (to be continued as i go along and test those for more templates)


      1. please delete the following files:
      /css/font-awesome.css
      /fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot
      /fonts/fontawesome-webfont.svg
      /fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf
      /fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff


      2. please download the attached file called Archive.zip and unpack it locally.
      the following files/directories are included:
      /css-compiled
      /css-compiled/index.html
      /less
      /less/global.less

      please add those into your template directory.
      for example if you're using ximenia, you should then have:
      ../templates/rt_ximenia/css-compiled
      ../templates/rt_ximenia/css-compiled/index.html
      ../templates/rt_ximenia/less
      ../templates/rt_ximenia/less/global.less


      3. please open the file templateDetails.xml and find:
      <folder>css</folder>
      and change that to:
      <folder>css</folder>
      <folder>css-compiled</folder>

      in the same file please find:
      <folder>lib</folder>
      and change that to:
      <folder>lib</folder>
      <folder>less</folder>


      4. please open the file /features/styledeclaration.php and find:
      function init() {
          global $gantry;
      and change that to:
      function init() {
          global $gantry;
       
          $gantry->addLess('global.less', 'master.css', 8);

      in the same file please find and delete the following line:
      if ($gantry->get('typography-enabled')) $gantry->addStyle('font-awesome.css');

      good luck! :D

      ps: these changes will be added to the next updates of our templates.
