I upgraded my instance last night after putting it off for many months, and now almost all of my icons have stopped working, pro and non-pro. Below is a video of the category icon selector to demonstrate. You can see I previously had fal-comment-pen. I also tried different combinations, with differing results: Light/Classic [CleanShot 2025-12-30 at 08.50.39@2x] Regular/Classic [CleanShot 2025-12-30 at 08.49.20@2x] I’ve double checked my web_only.yml configuration and everything looks good, including the key. But the issue seems to go beyond pro, so I’m not sure where to go from here, any suggestions?

I removed the raise_on_fail: false and then the rebuild failed with this: I, [2026-01-04T17:38:39.450544 #1] INFO -- : > cd /var/www/discourse/plugins/discourse-fontawesome-pro && /var/www/discourse/plugins/discourse-fontawesome-pro/scripts/install.sh fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/var/www/discourse' To add an exception for this directory, call: git config --global --add safe.directory /var/www/discourse ERROR Error during pnpmfile execution. pnpmfile: "/var/www/discourse/.pnpmfile.cjs".

So I did this: - exec: cd: $home/plugins/discourse-fontawesome-pro cmd: - git config --global --add safe.directory /var/www/discourse - $home/plugins/discourse-fontawesome-pro/scripts/install.sh Which then successfully rebuilt and I’m back in business!

At some point font awesome changed the names of a bunch of stuff. There were some things in place to map to the old names, but maybe those aws gone now?

I tried removing the FA Pro plugin, and the non-pro icons returned, so it does seem to be an issue with the plugin. [CleanShot 2025-12-30 at 19.07.58@2x]

I’ve determined it’s only pro icons that are not displaying, I was initially on Light, which are all pro. Is anyone else having this issue or just me?

Fontawesome broken after upgrade?

Thanks Jay, I remember going through that process this summer, so I don’t think that’s it. Especially since many of the default icons are missing as well. For example:
