SVG Support

Font Awesome SVGs can be used in place of the Webfonts for a fairly signaficant performance increase. This requires PHP Zip and then changing the Theme Options icon load type to SVG.

PHP Zip can be installed on your server sometimes through the cpanel. It will vary based on the server and hosting provider.

For example, on debian based systems it will look like the following.

sudo apt install php-zip

SVGs come packaged to you in a zip file. When SVGs are being used this zip file will be unzipped. If your host has limits on the numbers of files you are recommended to not use this or switch hosting providers.

SVG icons are currently not supported on the audio and video elements and will load in the Webfonts when these elements are placed on a post.
