    Hi Tom

    I’m just getting to grips with your excellent theme but wonder if you can help me change the ‘search’ button text in the searchform.php to be the fontawesome magnifying glass (fa fa-search)
    I can change it to the unicode magnifying glass by pasting this ‘🔍’ in place of ‘search’ but it’s an awful icon.
    I tried the unicode for the fa icon ‘’ but that doesn’t work as I guess it has no reference to the font awesome font.

    Any help gratefully received.

    Thanks very much in advance : )

    Do’h! Don’t worry. The fa-search unicode does seem to work now. It was just showing a little, grey box with the code inside (as it seems to be doing above) but after refresh, it seems to work now.
    Thanks all the same : )
