    Hi, I Work Here

    Hi David

    Thanks for running Vantage.

    Your icons seem to be loading correctly from my side, OS X Chrome. Font Awesome bundled CSS is loading from the same directory as the main Vantage stylesheet:

    http://brooklyn.server266.com/ceaewp14/wp-content/themes/vantage/fontawesome/css/font-awesome.css?ver=3.2.1

    As there been any change on your side?

    Thanks, unfortunately still showing up as boxes with numbers. OS X firefox.

    might it have something to do with the version of font awesome?

    Hi, I Work Here

    I think the problem is that Firefox and IE don’t load fonts via cross domain requests. Changing the url your assets are loading from http://brooklyn.server266.com to http://www.brooklynawards.com/ would, from what I’m reading, resolve.

    Alternatively you could make an .htaccess addition:

    Aha, that helped. I had the wordpress address setup as server266. Once I changed that as recommended, all fixed. Thank you!
