Entypo support about glyphfriend HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi @mnguyen284,

Thanks for reporting this.

The fix itself should be fairly straight-forward as the library already support the Entypo library, so it would just be a matter of explicitly targeting the Bootstrap themes via the GlyphCSSDefinitionExpression property of the provider. This would allow Entypo glyphs to be picked up by either Entypo or the Bootstrap themes explicitly.

The Bootstrap themes themselves are quite nice, however I always reserve a bit of hesitation regarding adding functionality to support a non-core library (i.e. not Entypo, but a library that uses Entypo) as it can lead to a slippery slope. I'll probably just build a custom provider for Bootstrap themes that points to the Entypo library, this way if things change in the future (i.e. they target a different icon set or their own custom one, changes will be minimal).

I'll throw together something for this when I have some time at lunch today.

Hi,

Thanks for your respond. My workaround was taking the Entypo part from the theme css and put into entypo.css. Not elegant but it works.

Yeah I'm not suggesting you should support Bootstrap theme. It's a paid product, which means it's not accessible for everybody.
