Topic: FontAwesome Pro Duotone Missing

digitalmanagerguru free asked 4 years ago


The last version of MDB Vue doesn't support the new duotone from fontawesome. It would be great if your next version added support to it on the fa component.

Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, duotone icons are pro product - in MDB Vue we only use the free version of fontawesome. Kind regards, Magdalena

To be honest here, you are not correct on this matter, I understand that no one can know all of a big project like this, so no hard fellings :p

You can found this on mdbvue code on the fa component:

return classNames(<br> this.far || this.regular ? 'far' :<br> this.fal || this.light ? 'fal' :<br> this.fab || this.brands ? 'fab' : 'fas',

If you check the fontawesome docs:https://fontawesome.com/how-to-use/on-the-web/referencing-icons/basic-use

Mdb already accept far and fal (both pro) and duotone is just a new pro type. So you only need to add fad to that part of code logic and that's it. ;)

I only hope you can add it in next version.

Thank you in advance,Best regards

All available icons are listed here: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/vue/content/icons-list/ - and all of them are from the free version (fas, far, fab), so unless fontawesome releases free version of duotone icons, they won't be accessible in MDB package. We can add a new property which will only work if the user himself has Fa pro licence. Kind regards, Magdalena

I see. And I do have fa pro license, so that new property would be great.


Magdalena Dembna staff commented 4 years ago

I've added a task to create a new property. Kind regards, Magdalena

Any news Magdalena about this feature ?


Magdalena Dembna staff commented 4 years ago

We have added the fad property to most components which use fontawesome. To make sure the component has this prop, check its API tab - in case it doesn't, let us know which one. Kind regards, Magdalena
