Topic: Customize font type via scss or variables, "fas" and "far" seem hardcoded

octavian.gherghinis priority asked 2 weeks ago


Expected behavior

I expect to be able to configure the font type as a variable somewhere. I can't find where the font type is specified for MDB and its plugins.

Actual behavior

"fas" and "far" seem hardcoded in various places in css and js.

Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)

The fas and far are hardcoded in some places.

Font can be changed with SCSS variable $font-family-roboto or CSS variable --mdb-font-roboto.

Thanks, I wasn't asking about the font family, but about the icons.

What is your proposed solution to replace the hardcoded "fas" with something else, like "fa-duotone" for instance, in all the CSS and JS from MDBootstrap ?

In theory, you can either replace them in the source code and build package from source.

Or replace styles for far and fas with doutone styles, but it may break some features.
