Font Awesome 4.0.0 Missing Icons

Question

Is it just me or there are actually icons in FontAwesome 3.x.x that are missing from FontAwesome 4.0.0? If so, this definitely makes FontAwesome much less awesome for me...

Answer 1

icon-remove is renamed to fa-times in v4.0.0.

Quick comparison:

• old one
• new one

Note that some icons that seem to be missing can be easily constructed using stacking options - I have created an example for icon-remove-sign replaced by fa-times stacked on fa-circle.

Note: As @VaclavElias pointed out, icon-remove-sign is now fa-times-circle. The above is just an example of stacking.

Answer 2

The 4.0.0 release has the same icons as 3.2.1, but the naming conventions and many of the individual icon names have been changed.

You can view a list of changes that Geremia Taglialatela compiled over on the Github wiki for Font Awesome:

• Upgrading from 3.2.1 to 4

Also, you can still access the documentation for 3.2.1 here

Answer 3

--EDITED--

Michal Rybak is actually spot on. You should submit that as an answer. The icon looks exactly the same. Can't believe I missed that.

Though I'd like to point out, in the FA site it says, if you know what it looks like you know the class name in 4.0, It think it looks like a cross, or X. I would have never guessed "times"

--ORIGINAL--

I came here looking for fa-remove as well! That's disappointing. Now it looks like I have to revert back to a previous version after having migrated 2/3rd of my app to the new version.

To answer your point about documentation: The old version can be accessed here:

http://fontawesome.io/3.2.1/

I found the link while browsing through their site and stumbled upon their notice about no IE7 compatibility.

This definitely needs to be linked (atleast) in the footer

Answer 4

I wrote a little LESS file that allows the integration of the old names into the new FontAwesome version. For this is took the list Michał Rybak posted: Upgrading from 3.2.1 to 4.0

If anyone is interested in downloading, you can find it on Github: Download v3 to v4 FontAwesome Integration

Answer 5

I have noticed that the Wikipedia icon is still missing on 4.0 and even 4.3 but this workaround worked for me:

.fa-wikipedia:before { font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-weight: 400; 
content: "VV"; letter-spacing:-0.45em; margin-right:0.5em; }
