Integrating Glyphicons Pro with existing project

Hi there,

I have just purchased Glyphicons pro to use in a project very similar to the "From Bootstrap to Wordpress" course. This would be the first time I have downloaded icons to use in a project so I am looking for some advice on how I would incorporate them in the file structure, to then be able to use them in the front end design and development of my project.

Zac Gordon can you offer any advice on how I would do this at all? I am currently at a the stage where I have completed the bootstrap to wordpress course and just wondering where to go from here.

Thank you in advance!

Hey man,

You should be able to just upload the fonts, css and any js needed, link them up in the functions.php file and then be good to go!

I was wondering if you have a solution for the glyphicons. I have also the same problem.

I just followed the steps to load them up as normal in WordPress (after watching the videos), but my issue that I encountered when trying to use them was that I used the wrong class, if using the font versions just do this:

"glyphicons cargo"

rather than (I think from memory):

"glyphicons-icon cargo"
