    @pwsincd are you looking to use the pro version or free ?

    @phenomlab the free version

    @pwsincd Here’s the steps to add

    1. Open the ACP, and go to Appearance -> Custom Header. Within the custom header, we need to add
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/5.15.4/css/all.min.css" integrity="sha512-1ycn6IcaQQ40/MKBW2W4Rhis/DbILU74C1vSrLJxCq57o941Ym01SwNsOMqvEBFlcgUa6xLiPY/NS5R+E6ztJQ==" crossorigin="anonymous" referrerpolicy="no-referrer" />

    It should look like the below. Don’t forget to add the DOCTYPE and <head> values before anything else.

    e4c19939-e079-4507-907b-d6de2e4a6202-image.png

    1. In the same location, we need to add
    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/5.15.4/js/all.min.js" integrity="sha512-Tn2m0TIpgVyTzzvmxLNuqbSJH3JP8jm+Cy3hvHrW7ndTDcJ1w5mBiksqDBb8GpE2ksktFvDB/ykZ0mDpsZj20w==" crossorigin="anonymous" referrerpolicy="no-referrer"></script>

    You should now have something like the below

    Ensure that both of the below are on

    beaa416f-fd89-45e2-80b4-ab561443934b-image.png

    Save the changes

    This will now pull the required CSS and JS from the CDN on each page load. When attempting to use the font itself, you will need to identify it with font-family, so for example

    .mytarget {
font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Free";
font-weight: 900;
}

    Note that the free version only supports the solid icons, so it’s necessary to set the font-weight attribute.

    If you are looking to replace the existing icons, let me know as this requires additional configuration for it to work properly. This is something I do with a Pro subscription I have that Sudonix is using.

    @phenomlab This is great , i think you included some info i was missing i was almost there … replacing the whole sites fonts would be cool , is that with some kind of shim?

    @pwsincd No, you should be able to override all of them, but likely on a one-by-one basis. You could use the css class of * but this is complete overkill and will impact other fonts on the site as it covers every single class.

    @pwsincd hi. Just following up on this thread (I know it’s old) but was curious to understand if it’s still an issue or not ?

    @Panda said in Spam spam spam: ok, yes Ive seen the queue, it shows IP, but doesnt have a field for comments from registrant. It’s not designed for that. It merely serves as a gateway between posts appearing on your form or not. @Panda said in Spam spam spam: It would be better if nodebb had this plugin included in ACP list, as not only then do you know its approved and should work, but many people cant or dont want to use CLI on the server That’s a question for the NodeBB devs but in all honesty you can’t not use the CLI when installing nodebb so to be this isn’t a big deal.

    @Panda You should be able to expose the CSS for these using F12 to get into console [image: 1686833368846-3591518c-e3a3-4ada-a43c-6b32a5e0359c-image.png] [image: 1686833399483-a2b8ed46-4157-4ff2-85f0-576543380107-image.png] That should then expose the element once selected [image: 1686833431032-89d9c545-a47a-40d1-98f4-80cf3b958e8f-image.png] Here’s the below CSS you need based on the screenshot provided. .composer .formatting-bar .formatting-group li[data-format="picture-o"], .composer .formatting-bar .formatting-group li[data-format="spoiler"] { display: none; }

    @DownPW sure. Let me have a look at this in more detail. I know nginx plus has extensive support for this, but it’s not impossible to get somewhere near acceptable with the standard version. You might be better off handling this at the Cloudflare level given that it sits in between the requesting client and your server.

    @cagatay JS will work fine - no changes there, and there are no plans to drop support for jQuery. More of an issue is the CSS - for which there are quite a few breaking changes. Keep an eye on sudonix.dev (my development site) where you can see progress in relation to how I am tackling the compatibility issues.

    @DownPW as discussed in PM Seems to have been solved with the new JS code that you added allowing the version CSS file change!!

    @mike-jones Yes, you’ll typically see this type of behaviour if there is another style that has higher priority in the sense that yours will be overridden. Using !important will override the higher preference, but should be used sparingly rather than everywhere.
