Frequently Asked Questions

My site does not look like Bootstrap, why?

If you loaded the helpers correctly, check that you correctly include the stylesheets and scripts from Bootstrap, since the helpers do not include them automatically.

Where have the faIcon and glIcon methods gone?

The faIcon and glIcon have been dropped in 3.1.0, alongside with the useFontAwesone option. If you want to use a custom set of icons, you can customize the icon template:

$this->Html->templates([
    'icon' => '<i class="fa fa-{{type}}"></i>'
]);

I cannot use easy icon, why?

The easy icon features relies on the Bootstrap.Html helper, so it only works if the Html helper associated to your view is Bootstrap.Html:

public $helpers = [
    'Html' => [
        'className' => 'Bootstrap.Html'
    ]
];
