With font-awesome 4.03 the classname pattern has changed for rendering icons; it is <i class="fa fa-iconname"> instead of <i class="icon icon-iconname"> so the regex needs to be
\.fa-(.*?):before
thanks for the bug fix on github, I just cherry picked that commit rather than the whole pull request, this is because I don't want the base functionality of uCssClassNameDropdown to be entirely based upon font-awesome icon set. You should be able to use it in other circumstances ie other icon sets, or for selecting style options from a stylesheet ie 'btn-warning' etc or background images.
If you have a look in the git repo, there is the work in progress for uCssClassNamePicker, which will work more like the version 4/6 usercontrol wrappers for font-awesome, in that you can see the icons and can click to select them; its pretty much there; just need to scroll to picked icon on first load.
v7 RC Missing Elements
Hi Marc,
Thanks for writing such a detailed blog post on the control and porting to v7 really love it.
I'm looking at the controller and found a bug where if the excludeList is null it'll blow up on line 51.
Also if I try and use it with font awesome 4.0.3 and update the regex to be \.icon-(.*?):before it will only ever find the first item.
Cheers,
Tom
