Recently some Font Awesome icons are not showing anymore. I read this has something to do with the upgrade of Font Awesome from version 4 to 5. My WordPress theme Avada is using version 5 of Font Awesome. I notice this missing icon problem for the following icons:
* The map-marker icon at the Event Card (when I change the class into “fas fa-map-marker-alt” it works for me).
* The pencil icon at the Action User Event Manager page (when I change the class into “fas fa-pencil” it works for me).
See https://fontawesome.com/how-to-use/on-the-web/setup/upgrading-from-version-4 for a complete list of deprecated class names and their new syntax and the changes in the usage of Font Awesome since they upgraded from version 4 to 5.

I’ve added fixes to EventON > Styles. Please check and let me know.
Hi Artem.
Thanks! The icons are visible again.
Are there plans for EventON to upgrade to Font Awesome 5? This would prevent the same issues for other EventON users.
I will post your fixes here so others can benefit from them as well:
.evcal_evdata_row .evcal_evdata_icons .fa-map-marker:before {
content: "f041" !important;
}
.eventon_actionuser_eventslist .fa-pencil.editEvent:before {
content: "f040" !important;
}
The backslash before f040 and before f041 has disappeared due to an issue with this helpdesk system. You should place a backslash before these codes to make it work.
Hi,
Thank you for sharing hem here. I am sure it will be helpful to others.
Let us know if you need help with anything else.
Thank You
