Ninja Forms Help Text Conflict

Hi @ssheward

Do you have a page you can share where the issue occurring and/or steps to reproduce the bug? I’d be happy to take a look.

Since I posted this, I did a little more research, and the problem appears to be that the Contact Widgets plugin re-writes anything that uses Font Awesome icons, and Ninja Forms uses that for the info-circle for the hover icon to then pop-up the text, which does not work with the Contact Widgets enabled. If there is an easy way to disable that functionality in Contact Widgets, I’d be much obliged to hear what it is.

Hi @ssheward,

Let me take a look and see if I can come up with a solution. It may be possible to use the autoReplaceSvg config option to false within font awesome 5 to help work around the issue, but I have not tested to confirm.

function contact_widgets_font_awesome_nest() {

   ?>
   <script>
   window.FontAwesomeConfig = { autoReplaceSvg: 'nest' }
   </script>
   <?php

}
add_action( 'wp_head', 'contact_widgets_font_awesome_nest' );

I will post back here after I’ve been able to set up a test instance with that same popup field.

Hi @ssheward,

We’re rolling out an update now that will roll things back to Font Awesome v4 with the ability to force load Font Awesome 5 through an included filter:

add_filter( 'wpcw_social_icons_fontawesome_5 ', '__return_true' );

Since Font Awesome 5 is not widely adopted just yet, and a lot of themes and plugins are still running Font Awesome 4.7.0, we’ve decided to default to a locally bundled copy of Font Awesome v4 to work around any conflicts, with the option to load Font Awesome v5.

This should fix the issue that you are facing with that icon converting to an SVG icon. The update should be available on www.remarpro.com shortly. Once you update, feel free to post back here and let us know if the issue is resolved on your end.
