I downloaded the font-awesome package, and I included the css file in my page as instructed, but it doesn't work. It displays as "fl".

before you add any font awesome class add "fa" before it,
like [ class="fa fa-search" ] to get ride of this issue.

when `fa` is missing, it displays blank square but the text `fl`. `fl` appears while the icon is loading. when you set network slow from browser dev tool, you can see it. it relates about network speed so I guess when the fontawesome is called from external link, it happens. – Chase Choi Dec 21 '17 at 04:24
