Overriding Glyphicon styles












0















How do I override Glyphicons CSS? I need to use the eye-open and conversation icons but smaller, white and with a drop shadow. I've tried adding a class and a direct style, but Glyphicons CSS RULEZ! (sorry)



<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>

<!-- Glyphicons -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/modules/glyphicons/css/glyphicons.css">
<link href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

<style>
.whiteicon{
color:white;
text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 1);
text-decoration:none;
font-size:4px;
height:50%;
}
</style>

</head>
<body>

<i class="glyphicons eye_open whiteicon" style="color:white;"></i>
<i class="glyphicons conversation whiteicon" style="color:white;"></i>

<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-camera whiteicon"></i>
<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-camera whiteicon" style="font-size:40px;"></i>
<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-camera whiteicon" style="font-size:50px;color:blue"></i>

</body>

          Some of your Glyph Icons are using a :before Psuedo



          .glyphicons:before {
          position: absolute;
          left: 0;
          top: 0;
          display: inline-block;
          margin: 0 5px 0 0;
          font: 24px/1em 'Glyphicons Regular';
          font-style: normal;
          font-weight: normal;
          color: #ffffff;
          *: ;
          display: inline;
          *: ;
          zoom: 1;
          vertical-align: middle;
          text-transform: none;
          -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
          }


          therefore:



          .whiteicon:before {
          color: white;
          }


          Will fix your issue.

          • Awesome, thanks! I will have to look into the :before, :after, :less etc. I'm not up on them.
