Feature Request
5 replies · Started by Lloyd on December 30, 2015
Hi Tom - Just wanted to ask if there was a place for requesting new features to an already great theme?
I would like to request three possible new features.
1 > The ability to use boxes side by side. For example, have an image on the left with content to the right
2 > The ability to use accordion drop downs with the possibility to add the accordion into the above boxes.
3 > The inclusion of Font Awesome Icons.
Thanks in advance.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts

Hi Lloyd,
1. You can use Lightweight Grid Columns: https://wordpress.org/plugins/lightweight-grid-columns/
Or you can use the built in CSS framework HTML: unsemantic.com
2. A plugin like this may be your best bet for accordions: https://wordpress.org/plugins/shortcodes-ultimate/
3. Font Awesome is already integrated into GP :)
Hi Tom
Just been searching this site about using font awesome and noticed your comment above stating font awesome is integrated in GP.
Being completely green with font awesome, I have installed AGP Font Awesome Collection, however I am slowly looking at ways of hard coding things like this into my site to save me using so many plugins (I only use 8 plugins, but that is about 5 too many in my opinion). To be honest AGP isn't that good.
Is there any posts on here that easily explains it's use or can you point me in the right direction.
Much appreciated. (PS - thehirebook.co.uk - I have using AGP in the menu and a couple of widgets)
Basically, you want to choose your icon from their site: https://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/
Click on the icon, and you'll see HTML they provide: <i class="fa fa-bluetooth"></i>
If you'll be adding it into the WP editor, you need to add an HTML comment inside of the icon to prevent WP from stripping it:
<i class="fa fa-bluetooth"><!-- icon --></i>
And that's it - you can use them anywhere :)
Cool. Thanks Tom :-)
You're welcome :)
