Hi there,

Please add this code in your child theme’s style.css:

i.x-icon-google-plus-square:before {
    content: "\f0d5";
}

Hope this helps.

That does not seem to have had any affect.

Hi Nuera,

I have checked on you child theme’s style.css file and the code wasn’t there yet. I have placed it there and you should be able to see the updated google plus icon now.

Hope this helps.

OH! I just realized that you told me to stick it in the style sheet. Sorry, I’m so accustomed to adding it to the custom section that I skimmed right over that detail.

Unfortunately, now it’s just showing a different version of the same out of date logo. This change also seems to have dialed back our icon on the contact page as well, which had formerly been up to date.

This is the icon that we’re shooting for:

This is a minor detail, but being a marketing agency that has an emphasis on being on the cutting edge, it doesn’t speak very well to our abilities if we have an out of date logo on our freshly launched site.

Thanks for you help!

Hi Nuera,

Please add this code in your child theme’s functions.php:

// Load Font Awesome
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_font_awesome' );

function enqueue_font_awesome() {

	wp_enqueue_style( 'font-awesome', 'https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/font-awesome.min.css' );

}

Hope this helps.

Sadly, that doesn’t seem to have worked either. I tried to remove the code we added to the style sheet too, but that didn’t seem to work. As of right now, both sets of code are still in there, but neither seems to be featuring the new icon.

If you have anything else we can try, I’m all ears.

Thank you!

Hi There,

You need to update the Font-Awesome files since the new G+ icon is part of the 20 new icons in FontAwesome 4.5.

Please download the fontAwesome files here. http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/

After you download, extract the font-awesome-4.5.0.zip file. And copy all the fonts file on this directory font-awesome-4.5.0\fonts\.

Then login to your FTP and navigate to this directory \wp-content\themes\x\framework\fonts\font_awesome\, overwrite all the old fontAwesome file there with the new.

Make sure you keep this code on your child theme’s style.css file.

i.x-icon-google-plus-square:before {
	content: "\f0d5"
}

Hope it helps. Happy holidays, Cheers!

Thank you I got it to work!! Guess it just required doing that manual update on the icons.

Glad we could help you.
