Re: Data Icons

The Suivant and Optics themes actually have their own font files specific to them which we created. They also use a font icon set called ElegantIcons which is similar to fontawesome

Are there any reference docs for the Suivant and Optics theme font files?

Re: Data Icons

I can shed some light on this. The basket icon uses an icon font. The benefit to this is that all the icons used throughout the site are loaded in a single request which helps reduce page load time.

The only way to update this is to use a new font icon (or create your own)

The Bootstrap themes both use fontawsome, because that is part of the Bootstrap Framework. This includes the base framework and the retro theme.

The Suivant and Optics themes actually have their own font files specific to them which we created. They also use a font icon set called ElegantIcons which is similar to fontawesome

Re: Data Icons

Jim,

Yea, that's understandable since themes are 'independent' technically from the base product. the M9 admin uses font-awesome, just assumed themes would too.

We've asked that miva adopt or at least adopt a 'recommended' set of resources. Mostly to help with education, code reuse, and for third party modules to be able to count on, or query for, the existence of said resources. However, there is some reluctance in doing this.

Re: Data Icons

Oh, it looks like Suivant uses a different font for the icons though. It uses Elegant Icons, I found them here http://www.elegantthemes.com/blog/re...gant-icon-font

Is there any information about the Data icons being used in the Suivant theme? For example I want to change the basket icon to a shopping cart icon. Thanks!
