Fontello : How to load and use fonts?
Problem :
You have downloaded the Fontello fonts that you wanted and now you want to get the fonts to display on your webpage. How to call the fonts?
Solution :
A typical Fontello font zip file should have directory structure that look like this :
Load the CSS file for the pages you want to use the fonts. For example, on this website. I would load the CSS file on the header section like this :
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="https://www.socketloop.com/public/assets/fonts/fontello/css/fontello.css">
The fontello.css file should be the default CSS file to load and it handles everything from there.
NOTE : adjust the include path(
href
) to suit your website structure.To invoke the font, you can use
class="fontello-icon-NAME"
in the place where you want the font to appear. For example, in this page Like Us On Facebook widget, the Facebook Fontello font is called by :<i class="fontello-icon-facebook></i>
Hope this simple tutorial can be useful to you.
