Install this theme component

:bulb: Since we switched to Font Awesome 5, we built an internal API that delivers a subset of all FA icons to clients – only those icons actively used by Discourse. Site owners can use the svg icon subset site setting to register additional icons for their Discourse instance.

If desired,

  • you can change the color of the like icon via /admin/customize/colors/ (look for the love color setting)
  • you can change the text from β€œlike” to a different term via /admin/customize/site_texts/

This is a theme component, so add the component to your main theme(s).
