Not 777. But check that the fonts folder and files inside the folder are 755 and 644 as they should be, And maybe check the GUID and UID as well to ensure they inherited from the parent wp-content ok.

Bottom line is that the console reports 404's. In my experience that is usually because they are not there or can't be accessed.

I downloaded barebones this morning to test it on my staging server and I am noticing the same thing, all folders are 755 and the barebones.ttf is 644, one other thing I noticed is the font increaser plug in does not seem to work with it. Is this normal?

Really like the minimal styling though.

So the glyphs are not working for you either?..

Good point on the Font Resizer, Barebones does it's fonts a little differently as it allows you to change the overall font size in Forum > Themes > Barebones Customiser, it has to have a set font size. My guess is the Font Resizer relies on the theme not having a set font size in order to work so we will have to investigate that, thanks!

worrying.... can I assume that when you run the forum admin the 'accordion' control on the left DOES display icons for each section? I ask simply because these are handled identically as BB does.

I've just downloaded it from the store and it already contains the changes so it should work fine so looks like we will have to look into it further.

I've opened up a ticket on the Font Resizer with Barebones.

There does appear to be the possibility of some odd permission settings on files. They appear to have the same permission as folders (755) instead of the correct file permission of 644.

Clearly this is wrong but it seems to have been applied to ALL files and clearly the CSS files etc., ARE loading.

Bit if you see this on your install and can try changing the font files to 644 just to see if this is a cause it would be much appreciated.

Well tested and it is still an issue, I mispoke, my permission setting is 664 for the image file not 644, we use wpengine for our hosting and they do not allow us to change any permission settings due to security concerns, so I am not sure what options I would have if I wanted to use it and the permission settings were the issue. Here is my staging server if it is worth looking at.
