When creating or editing a badge, there are text fields for both “Icon” and “Image”. However, both use the same help description: Use either a Font Awesome class or URL to an image. As an admin, I ask: What’s the actual difference between the two? Should we enter something for one, the other, or …

I agree, the UI does not explain what the difference is between “Icon” and “Image”. But if I would have to venture a guess, an icon simply means the tiny image, and the image means when you look at the badge’s page you get this fancy image … but I would have to look at the source to know what the d…

[图片] sigurdur: if you’re looking for FA icon classes then look no further than Font Awesome Yes, familiar with that page as we it’s an upstream component of our own software. Unfortunately, Discourse is using a very old version from Nov 5, 2013, when many 150 of the current icons listed weren…

I’m hoping to create a new badge called “staff” and have each staff member have that badge. I have an image I’d like to use for the badge. But I can’t just upload that image to have it used? It needs to be on the web somewhere with a URL to it that I then attach to the badge setting in discourse?
