J'ai installé Hikashop v4.2.2. Pour désactiver Fontawesome (déjà chargée par mon template), est-ce que je dois encore passer par une modification de la base de données, ou bien est-ce que je peux agir quelque part depuis la config d'Hikashop ? I installed Hikashop v4.2.2.2. To disable Fontawesome (already loaded by my template), do I still have to go through a database modification, or can I act somewhere from the Hikashop config?

We don't want to make it into an option as otherwise people would disable it without knowing what they are doing and we would then have support requests from people asking us why they don't see the icons...
