Hi,

I have upgraded my client's website to Joomla 4 and notice that the Font Awesome icons (a Facebook icon in the socialrow and an up arrow in copyrightrow) are not showing.

The live site containing a Joomla 3 installation is at  holytrinityhampton.org.au/ . The Facebook and up arrow icons display properly, at or near the bottom of the website.
The staging site contains a Joomla 4 installation and is at  holytrinityhampton.org.au/j4/ . The icons do not display.

Are you able to throw some light on why the icons are not displaying in the Joomla 4 version, and what I can do to fix this?

Many thanks,
Julia.

Hello,

You should change the HTML code of the icons because the Font Awesome icons are upgraded as well. For example, for the Facebook icon you have:
Code:
<em class="fa fa-facebook"></em>
and the new code should be:
Code:
<em class="fab fa-facebook"></em>

Regards,
Milos
