I have a multi site installation consisting of the main domain and various subdomans.
The domain and subdomain all use the one theme however the icon font of the theme doesn't display/load an any of the subdomains.
Why are subdomains of my multi-site network failing?

- @YobdDigital The full URL is not being used. Just the the file name. – Clarus Dignus Commented Dec 20, 2015 at 21:43
- @YobdDigital I edited the paths as full paths but it didn't work. – Clarus Dignus Commented Dec 20, 2015 at 21:49

- @YobdDigital Thanks for your willingness to review the matter however it turns out the root of the issue was my CORS policy (see my answer below). – Clarus Dignus Commented Dec 21, 2015 at 0:22

Reset to default 4The problem:
Console log:
Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at xxx. (Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing).
The solution:
Add the following header to your .htaccess file:
# https://wordpress/support/topic/font-awesome-not-working?replies=8#post-4921179
# Allow icon font to load on subdomains of WordPress multisite install.
<FilesMatch ".(ttf|otf|woff)$">
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
</FilesMatch>
...before:
# END WordPress
