XF 2.0 Link external stylesheet?

[RobParker]

What's the correct way to link an external stylesheet?

Should I hardcode it into the pagecontainer template or something else?

You can use template modifications. Add it to helper_js_global in "head" macro (proper way) or append to google_analytics template (quick hack).

There's a way to define code to appear in the header via the content templates too, so it doesn't require adding stuff globally, so it will only apply to the specific page:

<xf:head option="myExternalStylesheet"><link rel="stylesheet" href="https://url.to.your/external.css" /></xf:head>

If I want it globally then just adding it (via a template mod) to the page container is fine?

helper_js_global is probably ideal as per Arty's suggestion if it's a global thing (that's where we add the FontAwesome CSS)
