This sort of seems to be mentioned in a few places, but I couldn’t find a clear answer — a way to work around this, or “it’s coming” in the sidebar or the component, or “nope”, etc…
I’ve enabled the experimental sidebar on my Discourse-hosted site. I get colored blocks next to my categories. And notably, I do not get the category icons I’ve configured with the Category Icons theme component.
My first thought is that I have the “Category Style” setting as “none” for this site. Feels to me like there shouldn’t be colored blocks in the sidebar with “none”.
…and in my screenshot you can see the icons I have for the categories. Feels to me like those same icons should be in the sidebar.
Thoughts?
