Extension:FontAwesome

The FontAwesome extension adds Font Awesome support to MediaWiki.

Features
Adds the ability to use any of the Font Awesome scalable vector icons to Mediawiki, easily customized — size, color, drop shadow, and anything that can be done with the power of CSS.

Compatibility
Tested using the Vector Skin, though one would expect the extension to work in any skin as it is a pure css extension.

Tested with Mediawiki version 1.23.5 (11th Oct 2014).

The extension works with all major browsers apart from I.E 6 and 7.

Installation
Download and unpack into your extensions folder and add the following to the bottom of LocalSettings.php

require_once "$IP/extensions/BootStrapSkinAwesome/awesome.php";

Configuration
Font Awesome uses the following syntax;

A complete list of icons can be found at the Font Icon Website (see below).
