Icons not showing in Themify Base 1.0.2 Theme

    Hi there,

    I would love to use your nice menu social icons, but it seems to have an issue with my chosen theme from the wordpress theme loader, Themify Base (1.0.2)

    I’m building a customized site on this theme now, the links are added to the menu and i can click them, but the icons/font does not show. I tried to change the color in the customizer but that didn’t work. Also read about the “!important” phrase in the css but didn’t find anything.

    I even resetted/reinstalled the theme to default css (thought i did some wrong coding) but still no change.
    With any other theme i tested it works perfectly well. 🙁

    I also read about the wp_head() / wp_footer() issue you wrote about, but as i am a designer with not that much coding skills in php at all, i’m really stuck in there…

    …may i ask you for help? Is it possible that my theme is the only one not supporting your package? …i really have hardly any choice to take another one because i can’t find any theme that fits the style as good as that one does! 🙁

    Many thanks in advance!
    Best
    Flo

    It’s hard to say without having a link to your site, by my best guess is that Themify may be attempting to load it’s own version of FontAwesome, which could be conflicting.

    This shouldn’t be the case, but Themify’s fontello font may be conflicting. See if removing or commenting out this line from line 202 of functions.php makes a difference:

    wp_enqueue_style( 'themify-fontello', THEME_URI . '/fontello/css/fontello.css' );

    Using the latest version of FontAwesome might also make a difference. Try using the setting under the Option: Add Vimeo and Stack Exchange heading in the plugin readme.

    I’ve verified that it is that CSS file in Themify that’s causing the conflict. You can either comment out the line mentioned above, or open themify-base/fontello/css/fontello.css and change this line:

    [class^="icon-"]:before, [class*=" icon-"]:before {

    to this:

    .icon-bookmark:before,
.icon-menu:before,
.icon-left:before,
.icon-right:before,
.icon-up:before {
