How do I use Bootstrap Glyphicons in 3.0.0?

glyphicons, icons, twitter-bootstrap

Solution

The `bootstrap-glyphicons.css` file seems to have been removed with the final\production Bootstrap 3.0.0. Simply download the zip from http://getbootstrap.com/ and then copy the `dist/css/bootstrap.min.css` file in your css folder. You should then include it in your HTML page as such:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Bootstrap 101 Glyphicons</title>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

    <!-- Bootstrap CSS file -->
    <link href="css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">

  </head>
  <body>

    <!-- Glyphicon in a H1 tag -->
    <h1>Hello, <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-globe"></span> !</h1>

  </body>
</html>

Problem

I'm using Glyphicons in Bootstrap. I was calling in the CSS straight from http://glyphicons.getbootstrap.com/css/bootstrap-glyphicons.css but this has now disappeared and was not recommended. This apparently coincides with Twitter making the Glyphicons available in the Bootstrap package again. I am using Bootstrap 3.0.0 RC1 or RC2. My problem: I have no idea how to use the icons in my own hosting... Seems to me the code is contained within the bootstrap.css (?). I have uploaded the "fonts" directory but am only getting blank, empty-box icons where there should be proper icons. Any ideas please? What should be where and how should it be called?
