FontAwesome BBCode Extension

Antoine

Hello everybody !

My second Flarum extension is based on a request from @Aethior.
It adds a custom BBCode command to add FontAwesome icons in your posts.
Once you have enabled the extension, you can use the [fa]icon[/fa] command which will be replaced by a FA icon

Installation

composer require antoinefr/flarum-ext-bbcode-fa

Antoine I'd recommend using {IDENTIFIER} rather than {TEXT} to avoid letting users insert any class names. {TEXT} accepts literally any text, so it would be possible to add more than one name using spaces.

Is there anyway to include fa-2x or any way to change the size of the fa icons?

Something like

[fa-2x]train[/fa]
[fa-3x]train][/fa]

@Antoine Works fine! Thanks!

Antoine

JoshyPHP Thanks for your comment, I have updated the extension.

Updating

Run composer updateto get the fix, then disable and enable the extension again.

You can change the icon size using [size][/size] BBCode. Example: [size=36][fa]rocket[/fa][/size].
