    Hi:

    Since 5.6.2 update, some (not all) icons of https://dunky.pt are now showing as a square.
    It seems the ones affected are in header and footer, and other theme related positions like “to top” and “side bar”. The ones inside pages are showing ok.
    I’ve already tried this: https://theme-fusion.com/documentation/avada/how-to/fix-missing-font-awesome-icons-or-custom-fonts/ but no success.

    What am I missing?

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    I’m having the exact same issue as you with a broken icon in the header of Woo in Avada. Were you able to solve it and how? I’ve tried numerous things, including that support page about missing icons, but no luck.

    Thanks

    Hi

    We need to ensure that the CSS rule we are using doesn’t not make use of the old font family name for font awesome. Avada has now moved to font awesome 5. Version 5 of font awesome uses a different font family name

    I would request you to please use the following font family name along with the font-weight in the following manner

    .fusion-main-menu .fusion-widget-cart-counter > a:before {
    content: ‘\f3ff’ !important;
    font-family: ‘font awesome 5 free’ !important;
    ​font-weight: 900 !important;
    }

    Note that the Avada community forum is primarily for a user to user interaction.

    If you would like hands-on assistance here, please register for support and create a support ticket as explained here -> https://theme-fusion.com/avada-doc/getting-started/avada-theme-support

    Thank you!

    Thanks Shaminder.

    Just to also mention. I have added a to-do list to get this extra information added to the documentation article. If you are looking for the list of available icons you can find them on https://fontawesome.com/

    I had a similar problem which has since been resolved so I wanted to share it here in case this impacts anyone later down the road.

    My problem was that I didn’t see FontAwesome at all — not even a square, just nothing. Turns out that I had corrupted CSS Code on my site/page, and even though it wasn’t about FontAwesome directly, that corrupted code broke FontAwesome later during rendering. So if you see nothing — no squares or anything — it could be a CSS issue, not just a Caching issue. Hope this helps!
