I am using Font Awesome 3.2. Font Awesome just released version 4.0. Prior to the 4.0 release I would view Font Awesome's documentation at http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/. The new version has differing icon names and makes it difficult to work between the old and new documentation.

Are the 3.2 docs still available? Can I download 3.2 docs?

Answer 1

The documentation for 3.2.1 has been archived at:

• http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/3.2.1/

There's an article for upgrading from 3.1.2 to 4 on the Github wiki for the Font Awesome project:

• Upgrading from 3.2.1 to 4

You can also download earlier releases from the project's Releases page. The 3.2.1 release does include docs, but they must be compiled to be useful.

Generally speaking, you can always check the Wayback Machine as a last resort, which has cached versions of some of the docs from previous releases based on date:

• Cached version of FontAwesome site from 3.2.1 release

Answer 2

I just wrote a set of SED regexp to convert class name of font-awesome 4.0.0 to font-awesome.3.2.1 equivalent.

Look at this : https://gist.github.com/guli/7154067

To use it :

sed -f sed_rules.sed < font-awesome.css > font-awesome.css.fixed

Feel free to comment or fix the gist :)

Answer 3

I've written a simple Python tool to migrate HTML from font awesome 3.2 to 4.0. It may be of use to you.

You can grab it here: https://github.com/robert-b-clarke/font-awesome-3-to-4

Tested migrating a batch of Django templates from font awesome v3.2.1 to v4.0.3. Patches, fixes and tweaks are of course welcome :)
