Just a follow up.... I exported the file to notepad++ and did a find-replace for Font Awesome 5 to FontAwesome 6. Then I loaded the file back up and all the icons are loading properly.

I am out of my depth here - I am not a developer. Is it possible to that Joomshaper simply forgot to update this file when releasing the latest version of Helix Ultimate?

Hi Charles,

It was prepared for Joomla 5 that has FA6 inside.

You could / should read tip 6. >> https://www.joomshaper.com/documentation/helix-framework/troubleshooting-faq#megamenu-without-arrow-icon-after-helix-ultimate-update

@Martin about missing FontAwesome Icons.

Please go to Sp Page Builder > Options/Settings > Advanced (tab) > Load Font Awesome -

must be (blue dot) On.

2nd, @Martian I have request/task for you (look into Hidden box)

@Paul, I can't see it

I'm confused here, what's the actual solution?

I'm just trying to get the new Twitter X logo to show up and Font Awesome still shows version 5.

I toggled the SCSS compilation back and forth, cleared site and browser cache, and nothing.

It depends on:

1. What template you have, is it a raw Helix Ultimate or Template based on it?
2. And do we talk about social icon from Helix settings

Remember that in case of - you can always use trick from Helix docuemnation >> https://www.joomshaper.com/documentation/helix-framework/customization-tips

I'm running everything up to date, including J5 with the raw HU template.

On my demo I see new "X" icon, but so far you didn't shared URL so ....

Not working for me either.. Seems like the Icon library in SPPB 5.1.8 hasn't been updated to FontAwesome 6. It is very confusing!!

• SPPB 5.0.8 is version from Aug 2023
• SPPB 5.1.8 is version from Nov 2023

But indeed in SPPB 5.1.x there is still FA 5. That's why you have to use tip from Helix guide to correct that by now.

It was a bit of a pain, but I got it working using Fontello.

Hello, there still isn't Font Awesome 6 in SPPB? I'm on Helix Ultimate 2.0.18 and SPPB 5.2.4, but I see only Font Awesome 5 in SPPB.

Thanks

Indeed, we all wait for FA 6 update in SPPB. I cannot share any date yet. But it's on the wish-list.

Font Awesome Free 6.4.2 is only in raw Helix Ultimate template.

Hello, thanks for all this infos, I've tried everything, add the CSS also to mei custum.css.

But it does not work. One strange thing is, that the icons appears, but after i click on some menu points, the icons dont appear anymore: Video

Thanks a lot. Frank

@sauerlu

Answer is pretter simple. You have Joomla 5, where Font Awesome 6 is used, not v5. This should be used in override.css

.sp-megamenu-parent .sp-dropdown li.sp-menu-item > a::before {
  font-family: "Font Awesome 6 Free";} 

Thank you Paul for your answer, i've added this on my override.css. Cleared the Cache of Joomla, Browser etc, but nothing changed.

Thanks for your patience.

F.

I still see FA 5 inside your file, maybe files are cached by server, browser or other rules. It's beyond me.

Thanks a lot, you're right, Firefox seems to have a cache problem, in chrome, everything works now. Thanks a lot.
