Bootstrap 4 icons documentation page linking to hijacked site

Open leighghunt opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hi Mark,

I tried logging this with Getbootstrap on Twitter, but it got me instantly suspended! Are you still working with Bootstrap or able to forward to someone who can help?

Link to page with screenshots of the issue - essentially the page at https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/extend/icons/ is linking to a seemingly hijacked useiconic (I won't link the URL here directly, but it's useiconic dot com slash open) page.

A screenshot of the exciting places it sent me is attached, but basically download sites and then domain parking

Whilst I'm here, let me also thank you for Bootstrap Cover Template which I'm still using in a number of sites! :-)

Oh - from this discussion, looks like there's a new URL (perhaps an opensource fork?) to use but the library seems a bit dormant - https://github.com/iconic/open-iconic/issues/60#issuecomment-1285875083
