An Incomplete Plugin For FontAwesome

  • As the “official” plugin for Font Awesome, it should do more:

    You should be able to assign a Font Awesome kit in the plugin settings for a specific website.

    You should be able to get a visual representation of the icon in the page or post editor, or at least a placeholder to show that something is there.

    You should have access to a cheat sheet (or dropdown, or a reference of some sort) in your editor (in WordPress) rather than having to flip over to Font Awesome’s website to grab the code or look through the thousands of possible choices.

    Don’t get me wrong – I’m a Font Awesome Pro user/addict and can’t live without it on my websites. I just wish this plugin would give me a bit more.

    We’re still in conversation with users and developers to establish the feature roadmap for this plugin. The initial 4.0.0 release is intentionally bare bones with a focus on improving compatibility across various themes and plugins and allowing Pro subscribers to use Font Awesome Pro.

    At the time of this review, the official re-boot of this plugin has not yet reached a production release status of 4.0.0. We’re still at “release candidate”, 4.0.0-rc11, and things are still in flux.

    Kits were not yet an available Font Awesome feature when we began shipping release candidates. Significant work is already underway to add kits support and improved compatibility conflict detection and resolution.

    Feature requests are welcome in the plugin’s support forum. Feature requests or code contributions are welcome in the plugin’s GitHub repo.
