Hi

I’ve noticed that my font awesome code won’t parse insise a flexible content loop, so

<?php if( have_rows('flexible_content') ):?>
<?php while ( have_rows('flexible_content') ) : the_row(); ?>
...
<?php elseif(get_row_layout() == 'pdf_file' ): ?>
  <ul id="pdf">
    <li>
      <?php $file = get_sub_field('file');?>
      <?php the_sub_field('file_name');?> :
	<a href="<?php the_sub_field('file');?>" title="Link to <?php the_sub_field('file_name');?>"><i class="fa fa-file-pdf-o"></i></a>
    </li>
</ul>...

so it doesn’t parse and I get a plain oblong box. Is there a hack i can apply to force it to output correctly? Thanks in advance

Hi @rebekahford

That is quite odd.

Kindly confirm, is the font-awesome css loaded correctly?

Testing it on my end it seems to be fine.

I hope this helps.
