The filter in TinyMCE editor for Better Font Awesome isn’t working (unresponsive). Will this issue be resolved in any time soon?

1. It is not really compatible with font-awesome official plugin. I have this shortcode [icon name="fort-awesome" prefix="fab"] but not rendered correctly in this plugin.
2. There is only one version available while the screenshot showing version select box which make me understand that there are multiple versions to use. It is okay to use latest but just update screenshot please.
3. FAQ said there is checkbox Remove existing Font Awesome styles but there is not. The only remove I see is Attempt to remove Font Awesome CSS and shortcodes added by other plugins and themes which is very unclear that it will be mess up my post data or not.
4. They use only CDN, no local file option available. If I have to install a site in local network without internet access then this will be dead end. To be fair, this choice is not negative or positive but just my comment.
5. This plugin leave junk in my DB. The option name better-font-awesome_options still exists after uninstalled. The WordPress document is recommended to clean up the data on uninstall. Read more at Plugin Handbook / Plugin Basics / Uninstall Methods

Something simple like [icon name=”facebook-f”]
And nope – sh*t plugin.
Do NOT recommend it.
Here is what worked for me despite older and less updated plugin – works better than this plugin:
WP SVG Icons

Nach dem Update fehlerhaft – seit über einer Woche nicht nachgebessert. Keine Reaktion. Miserabler Support!
Buggy after update – not fixed for more than one week now. No reaction. Very bad support!

Sad about this ??
After the new release (2.x) all seems to work fine.

I hate to say it, this used to be a great plugin for Font Awesome, but not anymore. AVOID IT! WordPress 5.6x killed it and the author shows no interest in fixing it. The plugin’s current version does not work. None of the betas work.

Hello,
BE CAREFULL: Many bugs with WordPress 5.6 !!
Good when it works but causes problems because its code is not up to date !!!
According to the jQuery Migrate plugin, Better Font Awesome, a plugin which allows to display icons causes problems because it uses the old jQuery library that the latest version of WordPress no longer uses. I have used many such icons and therefore many pages or articles are affected.
For example, the WP Flatsome theme that uses this plugin is affected…
It seems that these dysfunctions were not anticipated by theme editors like Flatsoome and plugin editor as Better Font Awesome plugin editor. By the way, it must not be the only theme having problems. Indeed, there is a big update of the jQuery script library which can affect the themes but also the plugins ! After implementing a temporary fix with Patch 5.5.1, WordPress resumes its updater for jQuery, the JavaScript library that makes it easy to write scripts in HTML code. The delivery of WordPress 5.6 is indeed the opportunity for the CMS to launch the 2nd stage of its 3-phase program, as announced last June 2020. The goal: to consolidate and keep up to date the most recent versions of jQuery in order to ensure the sustainability of the scripts. But can cause big operational problems with themes and plugins. This is also the case for publishing with Better Font Awesome plugin…

Hi there,
Wordfence alerts that this plugin is abandoned?
Please advise if we can still use it safely?

The plugin is not being updated. With an install base of 100k+, one would assume that author would not completely abandon the plugin, but that looks like exactly what he’s done.

My site broke when I moved the server. Installed plugin. Problem fixed. Easy as pie.

Finally, a way to stop the constant conflicts from other plugins using Font Awesome… that don’t update to the latest versions. Thank you.

The description says “automatically fetches the most recent available version of Font Awesome” but fetches 4.7.0 when 5.4.2 is out.
If it benefits from the old version, it should not act as recent

What’s the point of a plugin that promises to fetch the latest version of Font Awesome and it actually gives you a 1-year-old version (4.7)?
Version 5.0 has been out since December 2017, we are at version 5.1 now in July 2018 and you’re still providing an old one.

I like this plugin and it would be perfect if… the icons would stop disappearing after I’ve already added, saved and tested them. If I open a module (working with the Divi by Elegant Themes theme) I run the risk of losing that icon. It’s very random and quite frustrating.

For the longest time we had all these weird icons show up in menus, topics, etc … I finally went googling for “wordpress weird icons” and quickly stumbled across a recommendation to use this plugin to make sure the “Font Awesome” is always installed and working. So I installed and activated it, and BOOM!! everything is suddenly working, all the arrows and icons now work!
Very good work, THANK YOU!!
I would give you 6 stars if possible .. all my admins have broken there heads over this for the longest time, and now it is fixed!! Makes me very happy!

I’ve used this plugin before, but not recently. Put it on a client site today and am super impressed with some changes that have been made (or that I don’t remember being there before). Super easy to use in posts/content–the media button interface is impressive–and then tweaking the output in the shortcode is nice and simple.
