Hello Bidur,

Thanks for getting back to me. Is there a way to add the new icons to the theme? I really need to use some of them.

Hi Bidur,

I noticed some of the new fonts in FontAwesome still aren’t in the latest version of this and some of your other themes. Will this be updated soon? If not, are you offering a fix in the meantime?

Hello Ellen,
You can manually update font-awesome icons.
1. Go to font-awesome
2. You can find Downlaod font awesome free button, get the download.
3. Use your child theme to create a css directory as in parent theme and add fontawesome.min.css file from the downloaded package inside it.
4. Now you need to enqueue it from your child theme; open functions.php file inside flat-responsive child theme
5. For instance; Take reference from the function as follows;

<?php 

 function flat_responsive_child_enqueue_scripts_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-theme-css', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
    wp_enqueue_style('font-awesome1', get_stylesheet_directory_uri(). '/css/fontawesome.min.css');
}
  add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'flat_responsive_child_enqueue_scripts_styles');
 
  function parent_dequeue_fontawesome(){
     wp_dequeue_style('font-awesome');
}  
  add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'parent_dequeue_fontawesome',11); 

Let us know.
Thanks!
