Resources with a "?" in the URL are not cached by some proxy caching servers

[melroy89]

Hi,

About your font-awesome.min.css file:
font-face{font-family:'FontAwesome'; src:url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?v=4.7.0'); src:url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?#iefix&v=4.7.0') format('embedded-opentype'), url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff2?v=4.7.0') format('woff2'), url('../fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff?v=4.7.0')

Speedtest website Pingdom.com explain that the lines with ?v=4.7.0 should be removed if possible. Since these links may not be cached by some proxies servers:

Resources with a "?" in the URL are not cached by some proxy caching servers. Remove the query string and encode the parameters into the URL for the following resources:

https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff2?v=4.7.0

Do you agree with this remark? If so, you may want to fix this.

Kind regards,
Melroy

Maybe it's already fixed, but not yet in 4.7?
