Font Awesome JS 403 HTTP Status Code

Hi,

When auditing my website I have the following issue across most of my pages “1 links to external pages or resources returned a 403 HTTP status code” and it is

Resource URL Type of resource Discovered

Can anyone advise me on how to fix this please?

Hi @HBarden,

Thanks for bringing this to the Community! I’m not too familiar with Font Awesome, but is this something that is implemented within your HubSpot pages?
In the meantime, I’d also like to tag in some of our Top Contributors to see if they have any experience with this! Hi @RubenBurdin, @GRajput, @evaldas -- Do you have any suggestions for @HBarden on this?
Thank you!

Hey @HBarden,

look into your FontAwesome kit settings.
If this specific kit has set up some domains ([KITNAME] > Settings > Domains), you need to add either all of them or remove them eitirely.

Also - since it’s a website, I wouldn’t recommend to use the JS version of FA as this may have a performance impact.

Switch to the CSS version, save it and copy/paste the new link into the <head> of your themes base.html (or where the current link is placed)

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://kit.fontawesome.com/[KIT_ID].css" crossorigin="anonymous">

I recommend to test this in a seperate environment first as switching from JS to CSS may be not as smooth as it should be.

p.s.:
The best (and safest) solution would be to download the required files from FA and host them in your theme directly (File-Manager can be used as well)

best,

Anton
