I am trying to host my website for free using GitHub (and I'm new to GitHub so sorry if this is a dumb question), but it just is not using the stylesheet I created and uploaded with all my files. It also is not loading images from my images folder. So from what I can tell, it doesn't like using local files, but it is fine using linked stylesheets like Bootstrap and images linked from somewhere online.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-beta/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-/Y6pD6FV/Vv2HJnA6t+vslU6fwYXjCFtcEpHbNJ0lyAFsXTsjBbfaDjzALeQsN6M" crossorigin="anonymous">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="_css/bootstrapOverride.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="_css/animate.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
It refuses to use my bootstrapOverride.css and the animate.css.
How can I make it use local files like these? Same question with images as well?
I figured out the problem. The issue was my folder names in linking to my stylesheets. GitHub pages uses Jekyll and Jekyll ignores anything after an underscore. Since the folder I had my CSS in was "_css" it would see the underscore and stop there. I took the underscores out of the folder names, updated my links to the CSS and now we are all good!
I am building Semantic UI with Gulp using this guide
However, the problem is now that the icons are not showing. So if I use
<i class="facebook icon"></i>, nothing shows up.
I guess I haven't built the icon font or something like that.
Is it necessary to load Font Awesome or something like that myself? I have read through the Semantic UI documentation, but I cannot find anywhere stating that I have to do anything to enable icons.
You need to include the font assets which are located in themes/default/assets/fonts/
The themes folder must be in the same directory as your semantic.css file.
The fonts are imported externally from the semantic.css file from within the themes directory.
To obtain this directory, download the zip for semantic ui and look inside the dist folder.
I was having the same issue, use this link tag in the head of your html and you're good to go :
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/semantic-ui/2.4.1/semantic.min.css" />
Got this from their official website.
Since it's not marked as ansered yet in 2019... Here's the clear answer. The above answers are correct as well, just not straight forward.
So basically what you missed out is the inclusion of the icons themselves. When you download semantic-ui it comes with themes folder within the "dist" folder. what you must do is copy that themes folder and paste it in your project folder where your semantic-ui.css is located. and it will work.
Please remember to mark the question as answered.
I had an CORS-issue (causing square empty icons) with the Semantic UI Icons when loading the minified CSS from a CDN. Turns out that it was my location override that caused it, turning it off made the icons display properly.
I fixed the problem replacing this line
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/dist/semantic.min.css">
with this
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/fomantic-ui#2.8.7/dist/semantic.min.css">
I also had to add link to icon.min.css
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/fomantic-ui/2.8.7/components/icon.min.css">
I wrote a post about it on medium :)
In my case I forgot to import the semantic ui css file. Import it in the App.js ( as it is the top level file ) or anywhere inside your project.
import 'semantic-ui-css/semantic.min.css'
I had the same problem and I solve it adding the following lines on my webpack.mix.js
.copy('node_modules/semantic-ui-css/themes/default/assets/fonts/icons.woff','public/css/themes/default/assets/fonts/icons.woff')
.copy('node_modules/semantic-ui-css/themes/default/assets/fonts/icons.woff2','public/css/themes/default/assets/fonts/icons.woff2')
.copy('node_modules/semantic-ui-css/themes/default/assets/fonts/icons.ttf','public/css/themes/default/assets/fonts/icons.ttf')
and then executing the command
npm run dev
This add in my case the missing files I need
In the semantic.css file, you'll find this line:
background: url("./themes/.....")
so, what you have to do is to copy the themes folder with all its contents beside your semantic.min.css
All simply copy the folder Semantic-UI-CSS-master with all its contents to your public/static/wwww folder, and will get things working smoothly.
I partially fixed this by downloading icon.min.css from this link and then replacing the CDN link with this two lines:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="~/Content/icon.min.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="~/Content/semantic.min.css"/>
There are still some icons missing: all the outlined ones.
You could also try the fonts folder from this branch but it did not work for me.
So as the other answers have provided you can change the script to look like:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/semantic-ui/2.4.1/semantic.min.css" />
Stop the server and close your browser. If you do not fully close the browser the error will persist. Restart your server.
If this does not resolve your issue, you can also choose to install the CSS library locally via
npm install semantic-ui-css
Then, import the library into your root index.js component,
import "semantic-ui-css/semantic.min.css";
I was having the same problems using react
tried everything mentioned and nothing worked
then just replaced this link
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/semantic-ui#2.4.2/dist/semantic.min.css" />
hope that helps
We use ScrewTurn Wiki and I created a Wiki page that contains the CSS information. I used:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://wiki.ourcompany.net/tech.CSS-Master.ashx">
</head>
as the link in all the other Wiki pages as the reference for the CSS info, where Tech is the namespace and CSS-Master is the Wiki page containing the CSS info.
This worked fine for a while, then suddenly it just stopped working. Any suggestions?
Are you trying to apply this CSS across your whole wiki? There's actually a lot you can do with theming. In the main directory on your webserver, there's a 'Themes' subdirectory, where you can make a new folder for a theme, then you can select a theme in the Administration->Configuration page, as well as when you're editing a namespace (if you want to change the theme for a particular namespace).
Font Awesome worked fine when I had index.html at the root with a link to font-awesome.css
<link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/plugins/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.css">
I changed the structure of my website for having multiple languages and I now have a folder called /en for all the pages in English and a folder called /de for all pages in German.
I hence have /en/index.html
When I write in the head of index.html following:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../assets/plugins/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.css">
then I get small boxes with numbers, like f086 instead of the icon comments for example.
It means, the font-awesome.css file is found but the icons do not appear.
I tried to put the folder font-awesome in en/test/ and wrote in /en/index.html:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="test/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.css">
and it works again.
Are there some restrictions in the path of the css file font-awesome.css?
Is it possible to change them or are there other ways of solving that problem?
I've fixed the problem. I was doing something wrong with apache and php.
While displaying the pages on the browser, the icons did not appear,
and opening them via http://localhost/en/index.html solved the problem.
Sorry, my mistake.
I am using a Dedicated Server.
In the web-hosting side, I have folders arranged like so.
html
forum
files
images
files
Equinox
index.php
header.php
footer.php
style
style.css
mc-multiplayer
style
style.css
index.php
header.php
footer.php
I am trying to get the index.php of mc-multiplayer to link to the css file in mc-multiplayer, but no matter what it keeps going to the style.css file in the html folder.
At first glance I would suggest using the following code:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style/style.css">
Make sure to confirm that everything is cased/spelled correctly and that directories are correct. As Kevin Boucher suggested, it would help to know the link you're currently using.
from a page within the mc-multiplayer subdirectory (as long as a <base> element isn't overriding the directory context)
this might work (no prefix (such as / or ../) before style should maintain the current folder context, then style subdir then the file):
<link href="style/style.css" rel="stylesheet" />
this should definitely work (/ to start at the root of the site then into mc-multiplayer subdir then style subdir to the file):
<link href="/mc-multiplayer/style/style.css" rel="stylesheet" />
