Hey c_dilla,
It looks like the file the plugin uses to load font-awesome fonts is returning a 404 error:

Is it possible that the file was moved or removed by any chance? You would check in the plugins/custom-twitter-feeds/fonts/ folder.
Thanks for your help but it looks like it’s there.

I thought that I might have blocked files with that extension or something for security reasons but resetting .htaccess and the cache doesn’t seem to change anything.
Thanks c_dilla,
There seems to be something blocking access to the file. Either way, try adding this to the “Custom JavaScript” area to load font awesome from their cdn:
$('head').append("<link rel='stylesheet' id='sb-font-awesome-css' href='https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css' type='text/css' media='all' />");
Thanks!
Hello, it seems like something is indeed blocking access to these files but I can’t figure out what it is. I’ve disabled my security plugin and restored my default htaccess file but it’s still the same.
Anyway, I’ve tried loading the font externally as you described and it seems to be working on the front end as long as I remove the file references in the CSS files as well to get rid of the 404 errors in the console. The symbols are still not working in the admin area though but I guess that’s not that important.
There’s still something wrong with the attached image as well as you can see here.
I guess that I can “solve” it by adding something like:
#ctf a.ctf-tweet-text-media-wrap { display: none; }
…but maybe there’s a better solution? Is the whole image suppose to show there or what?
Thanks for your help! I’ll mark this as resolved.

Hey c_dilla,
I’m glad that we can atleast get the icons working for you!
At this point, displaying images in your tweets is something in the paid “Pro” version only. In the free version, we add what we call a “media placeholder” so visitors know that there are images associated with the tweet.
You can remove this on the “Customize” tab “show/hide” area or with your CSS as you’ve found.
Hopefully that makes sense! Let me know if you have more questions.
Ah, I see, that media placeholder looked like a broken image link to me but I guess everything is alright then.
Ahh we’ve had a few people mention that they think this is a broken image link icon. We are considering changing how this looks in a future update.
Let me know if you need anything else!
