hi there,

here's how you can have fontawesome-icons in your flexicontent-file-fields instead of the default file-type-images.
This method is update-save and hack-free.

copy file "value_InlineBoxes.php"
from /plugins/flexicontent_fields/file/tmpl/value_InlineBoxes.php
to /templates/<mytemplate>/html/flexicontent_fields/file/value_InlineBoxes.php
edit the copied file in /templates/... .
near line 60, replace

Code:

$icon = JHTML::image($file_data->icon, $file_data->ext, 'class="fcicon-mime hasTooltip" title="'.JHtml::tooltipText($_tooltip_title, $_tooltip_content, 1, 0).'"'); $icon = '<span class="fcfile_mime">'.$icon.'</span>';

with

Code:

$aFileTypes = array( 'pdf' => 'pdf-o', 'xls' => 'excel-o', 'xlsx' => 'excel-o', 'ods' => 'excel-o', 'ppt' => 'powerpoint-o', 'pptx' => 'powerpoint-o', 'doc' => 'word-o', 'docx' => 'word-o', 'default' => 'file-o', ); $sFileType = (isset($aFileTypes[$file_data->ext])) ? $aFileTypes[$file_data->ext] : $aFileTypes['default']; $icon = '<i class="fa fa-file-'.$sFileType.'"></i>';
tweak as you like, enjoy fontawsome-icons

Hello

i am thinking we can buy a developer license and use font-awesome for FLEXIcontent default icons

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?
-- Add your voice to the FLEXIcontent JED listing with a 5-star...
