Add Patreon logo support

[nikitavoloboev]

It would be awesome to add Patreon logo so users can specify a Patreon website to show up in their upper bar.

I would add it myself but not sure what I should change for that.

Thank you.

Hi, the icons on the navigation bar are taken from Font Awesome. Unfortunately they don't have an icon for Patreon (yet). There is an issue on their repo requesting a Patreon icon but it's over 3 years old so who knows when or if they'll ever release a Patreon icon. I have tried looking for other icon fonts but none of them seem to have icons for Patreon. If you want to add the logo manually, you would have to change this line in the header partial layout. For now I am closing this issue because adding support for images in the navigation bar doesn't really fit in the spirit of the theme (minimality and ease of use).

Hey @calintat

Can you help with one thing? I was trying to add two custom icons however I am confused about one thing. What should I put in the i class section?

So I was thinking of adding a telegram icon which I found online. However one thing I am not sure of is how do I actually add this image so it shows inline nicely. I got something like this :

<li class="navbar-icon"><a href="https://t.me/nikivi"><i class=""></i></li>

Right above the

tag :

Not really sure how to make it work.

Thank you for a lot for any help.

Never mind, there actually is a Font Awesome telegram icon already and it works well.

However I can't quite figure out how to add custom Patreon logo there, I still get the issue of bad formatting. The whole layout messes up when I try to add it. 😞
