Bundles in MVC4 working incorrectly

I am attempting to modify the CSS Bundle within the BundleConfig class but for some reason the font-awesome.min.css file is never sent to the browser, only site.css is sent.

Here is how I include the bundle within my layout

@Styles.Render("~/Content/css")

And here is how I define it

bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/css").Include(
    "~/Content/site.css",
    "~/Content/font-awesome.min.css"
    ));

Note that the file im adding is in the same location as site.css within the Content folder. Also: site.css is only included within that bundle and no where else within the entire project

I suspect it's because your css file has ".min" in the name and you're running in Debug mode. Try to rename it or include it in the ignore list of the bundling.

Note: If you have the non ".min" version and use it during development after switching to release the engine will use the .min version.

If you use this during development:

bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/css").Include(
    "~/Content/site.css",
    "~/Content/font-awesome.css"
));

When you switch to Release the minification engine will look for corresponding .min files and use them accordingly, otherwise it will minify them for you.
