Varista template loads font awesome 4.3.0

Asked by Patricia Lawson 5 years ago Last activity 5 years ago

I am using Varista template which includes SP LMS . I have been struggling with icons and have discovered that the Varista template loads font-awesome version 4.3.0

I cannot display certain icons: chart-line is one of them, which is how I discovered this.

How can I update to font-awesome 5?

Note: I turned OFF Load Font Awesome in SP Page Builder Global settings. That actually helped a little, because template icons were now showing up eg.. The arrow on the 'favorite courses' on the home page (bouncing boxes). Before turning OFF, these arrows did not display.

site is help.thinkiq.com

Thanks,
PAT

My SP Pagebuilder is version 3.7.9 and in the com_sppagebuilder\css folder I see two font awesome folders:

\components\com_sppagebuilder\assets\css\font-awesome.min and Version 4.7.0
\components\com_sppagebuilder\assets\css\font-awesome-5.min Version 5.15.1

My template, Varista, also has a copy:
\templates\shaper_varsita\css\font-awesome.min This is version 4.3.0

The Helix framework I have is 2.5.8

Please give directions to UPDATE my system to ONLY use Font Awesome 5.

Thanks.
