Documentation

FontAwesome Dashicons maps `dashicons-fa-*` classes to Font Awesome Free icons inside the WordPress admin area.

Examples:

  • `dashicons-fa-camera`
  • `dashicons-fa-user`
  • `dashicons-fa-envelope`

The plugin loads Font Awesome in `wp-admin` and generates the icon class mappings.
