I made some updates for my own version to use a more modern version of Font-Awesome fonts -ignore the 5 in the URL, I’ve been able to have it use version 6.0.2 fonts by the option for loading from a CDN rather than local.
]]>Hello! Our company uses this plugin on multiple websites and we were wondering if there was any plan to update it to ensure compatibility with the latest versions of WordPress and Font Awesome?
If not, would you allow us to adopt the plugin and continue maintaining it for the community?
]]>Hi,
Are yo guys planning to update the plugin? Or just abandon it?
Thanks
]]>It don’t update for long time
]]>Hi,
Looks like this plugin might be a bit abandoned currently – thou its still working fine for me. All thanks to the author anyway.
My site uses html tags in the menu item label text, as well as using font-awesome-for-menus plugin to display menu icons. (i need the html in order to force nicer word breaks at various responsive break points, but there are other uses.)
For anyone looking, I found a solution to the fact that this plugin will break any such html constructs/hence menu item layout. (due to greedy regexp parsing). the fix is:
file : /wp-content/plugins/font-awesome-for-menus/n9m-font-awesome-4.php
line: (approx: 175)
function: replace_item
mod:
...
// mod jrc 110819 - fix broken layout iff html in label text - regexp was too greedy for > char :
// orig: preg_match( '/(<a.+>)(.+)(<\/a>)/i', $item_output, $matches );
preg_match( '/(<a.+?>)(.+)(<\/a>)/i', $item_output, $matches );
/ end mod jrc 110819:
...hope this helps someone.
]]>Hi,
Is font awesome icons compatible with Storefront Top Bar?
If yes, how can I use its icons?
Thanks,
Ricardo
Hey There!
You may have heard from something called the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) that is n force for every company that collects data from individuals that live in the european union.
I would be really grateful, if you could answer these questions so I could be sure, your plugin may is compliant with the GDPR Law.
Thank you very much in advance!
Have a good day,
Nicola
You can now also use font awesome VERSION 5 with this plugin!
(There are many new free icons that won’t show otherwise)
Simply paste the new CDN in the Font Awesome 4 Menus SETTINGS:
Load Font Awesome 4 From: A custom location: https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.0.8/css/all.css
Note that the fa prefix has been deprecated in version 5.
If you have the fa classes structured in your menu items as follows:
[fa fa-users]
then the default font of your menu items seems to be broken and instead uses what looks like ‘times new roman’. To fix this, remove “fa” in the classes like so:
[fa-users]
It works!
HOWEVER – there seems to be a bug:
The new default prefix is the fas solid style and the fab style for brands.
At the moment, none of these prefixes seem to work!
[fas] AND [fab] seem to break the default font too ??
SO, for now, you can only use any of the solid font awesome icons from here:
https://fontawesome.com/icons?d=gallery&s=solid&m=free
Unless somebody knows a fix for this too?
Just thought i would share this as its a really great plugin!
Thanks to the author and of course font awesome ??
I’m having an issue where the FA icon appears fine when there are no sub pages but once I add a sub page, it creates a down caret and the FA icon appears on the right side instead of the left. Any one have an idea how to fix this?
Thanks!
]]>No matter what I try, a little white square shows up to the left of the icon…?
]]>Could you please add a filter so that we can change the class of the span that wraps the menu text?
]]>I’m not sure what version of FA this plugin currently uses but I noticed a few new icons on fontawesome.io that don’t load in my site (bandcamp, for instance) even though my plugin is up to date. Am I missing something, or might these be updated any time soon?
Thanks in advance!
]]>Turned it on but I see nothing different on my menu admin, is it broken with current version of WP? what exactly should I be looking for? Where would I look for it? the FAQ mentions it should be on the menu page, but without screenshots, I’m pretty lost.
]]>Hi.
I want to display font-awesome icon left to Menu text Like below link.
https://i.imgur.com/tx8FohR.jpg
I tried to edit css like “Float : Left” but didn’t work
Please let me know how to solve that
Thanks you
]]>Just wondering if anyone else is having issues with certain links/icons.
My FB/Twitter/Linkedin work fine, but Snapchat does not.
]]>Is there any resolution on adding FA to menu items with children when the parent was created through a custom menu link? FA will show up on individual items and children of custom parents, but not on the parents themselves. Workaround? It would be very handy for our menu setup that we’re working on. Thanks!
]]>Hello, the plugin is not working for me as expected:
if I add “fa-spin” or “fa-fw”, or anything else after “fa-home” the icon is not loaded anymore, but only a small square.
Can you help me?
Thank-you!
Daniele
Please change line 175 of n9m-font-awesome-4.php in the replace_item function from:
preg_match( '/(<a.+>)(.+)(<\/a>)/i', $item_output, $matches );
to:
preg_match( '/(<a[^>]*>)(.+)(<\/a>)/i', $item_output, $matches );
It’s causing mistakes in when there are other tags inside the <a>.
Hi,
Could you add an alien head to the icons we can use in menus?
Hi,
So much I liked your plugin that I included in my premium themes on ThemeForest.net as a recommended plugin. But the new version of the plugin ruined my mega menu.
Any clues?
Kind Regards
]]>Hello !
I installed Font Awesome 4 Menus on my website. It works but I still have a problem : a square appears before each menu item (with icon) ! Any idea how to prevent that ? you can have a look here : https://aptmdpfg.preview.infomaniak.com/wp-content/static/printscree-fa-icon-menu.png.
Thank you so much for your help !
]]>Hi! I’m using custom menus with icons in the sidebar, and the longer items wrap below the icons. Is there a way to get the icons outdented as though they were bullets in a list? I found a fiddle that shows what I’d like. https://jsfiddle.net/semencov/vvLtj43g/
]]>Is there a way to use stacked icons in the menu? The way to do so in posts outlined, but no answer either way about within the menu.
]]>Came to my site this morning to work on it some more and the Font Awesome icons were working just fine. I logged in, and seen there was an update for Font Awesome 4 Menus, and so i updated it. Than when I back to the front of the site and refreshed the site, the menu icons were no longer showing.

I am using fa-angle-down in the CSS Class for the menu item titled “Standings”. I using a CSS rule to make it show up on the right side of the text (though I have now learned it can be done and way). But anyway, then was also using fa-angle-right in the drop down for Standings on “Football”. But, none of them are showing up now. You can inspect element on the right side of Standings and the only thing that you see is a span for a subindicator, which I hid via CSS as i like the Font Awesome icons better.
but, for some reason, after updating to 4.6.3.3 this morning, the icons are no longer showing up. I only have 2 plugins activated, Font Awesome 4 Menus and TinyMCE Advanced.
]]>Hi there,
The issue I’m having is that after updating my site, now I have two icons displaying in every place where I used to have one!
You can see an example screenshot here: https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/1426691/d321583d8f5924be62b7b8b5fdf932dd

]]>Hi there,
I’m unable to update to the latest release of the plugin (4.6.3.3). I’m running PHP 5.6 on https://www.bbmotorskent.co.uk
An error occurred while updating Font Awesome 4 Menus: The update cannot be installed because we will be unable to copy some files. This is usually due to inconsistent file permissions. fonts, readme.txt, css, n9m-font-awesome-4.php, fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff2, fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot, fonts/FontAwesome.otf, fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff, fonts/fontawesome-webfont.svg, fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf, css/font-awesome.min.css, css/font-awesome.css
Any ideas?

Since the update 4.6.3.2 our site has starting showing :
Warning: preg_grep() expects parameter 2 to be array, boolean given in /web/htdocs/www.ungiroinitalia.it/home/wp-content/plugins/font-awesome-4-menus/n9m-font-awesome-4.php on line 216
WordPress version: 4.5.3
Any resolution for this ?
Thanks in advance.
]]>The new update of your plugin (4.6.3.1) is showing error messages in my site’s header:
Warning: Missing argument 4 for FontAwesomeFour::nav_menu_css_class() in /home/***/public_html/wp-content/plugins/font-awesome-4-menus/n9m-font-awesome-4.php on line 134
There’s 6 messages like this one. I’m using Newspaper Theme by tagDiv.
This is the first time I have an issue with your plugin and I really like it, it would be great if you could update it again with a fix for this issue ??
Thank you in advance!
]]>Hello,
I updated the plugin and it was mentioned that it’s an update which won’t break anything. But, it did. Some Nav Menu arguments missing error. And, I had to disable the plugin. Need a quick update to address the issue.
]]>Since the update last night a site on our demo board has starting showing :
Warning: Missing argument 4 for FontAwesomeFour::nav_menu_css_class() in /home/demo/public_html/site/wp-content/plugins/font-awesome-4-menus/n9m-font-awesome-4.php on line 134If I revert back to the previous n9m-font-awesome-4.php it works fine.
Any resolution for this ?
Thanks in advance.
