I'm using the jQuery IAS plugin with the spinner extension to load posts from a paginated list of links. The docs specify src: '<image source>'
as a way to link a custom loading gif, but I'd like to use an icon font spinner like this. Anyone know how I can achieve this without hacking the src file?

This question appears to be off-topic because it is not about programming (at Stack Overflow, we are all about hacking the source files). Perhaps you should ask on [Super User](http://superuser.com/) or [Web Apps Stack Exchange](http://webapps.stackexchange.com/). – jww Dec 21 '14 at 06:17

Haha. Ok @jww. I want to maintain compatibility with future versions so I don't have to re-hack on updates is all. – rugor Dec 21 '14 at 06:23

You need custom CSS with the class `ias-spinner` – Ruben Kazumov Dec 21 '14 at 06:43

Given that you have already installed font awesome. Then you can override the html snippet for the spinner like this:
ias.extension(new IASSpinnerExtension({
html: '<div class="ias-spinner" style="text-align: center;"><i class="fa fa-circle-o-notch fa-spin"></i></div>'
}));

Thank you. For the record I got it working with @RubenKazumov's suggestion, however this is the correct answer b/c as mentioned, the icon font is already loaded and this approach avoids double-writing class attributes. Great plugin btw :) – rugor Dec 21 '14 at 19:19
