Cannot load icons on local host

[mschreider]

I am having issues loading the icons on my localhost. The font files and css files in their correct directories, but when I deploy my flask app on my localhost the images are just empty boxes. If i load my html files from it's local path, the icons appear. I really do not know what I am doing wrong here. Please help me!!

As you can see from console errors, your web server returns 404 HTTP error code for font files, which means that webserver haven't found those files for URLs requested.

Most likely, this issue has nothing to do with weathericons font and your webserver is either misconfigured or URLs to font files are wrong (they do look suspect, @font-face URLs should be URLs, not a file paths, but maybe there is a post-processing involved that I don't know about).

Either way, I suggest you to look into Flask documentation for serving static files.

@roman-holovin I fixed my issue. After looking into Flask documentation for serving static files, I modified my Flask app to this app = Flask(__name__, static_url_path="/static"). Thank you for pointing me in the right direction!
