The other like regular or brand are work well. The solid icon just not display and no any related console error.

Please look my example below.

 ![settings](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/e/6/e6788cafee95266bcc8f4aa348a82a8151c637f3.png)

```xml
{{! template.hbs }}
<div>
    solid
    {{d-icon "fa-mobile"}}
    {{d-icon "fa-beer"}}
    {{d-icon "fa-baby"}}
    <br>
    solid2
    {{d-icon "fas-mobile"}}
    {{d-icon "fas-beer"}}
    {{d-icon "fas-baby"}}
    <br>
    regular
    {{d-icon "far-clone"}}
    {{d-icon "far-angry"}}
    {{d-icon "far-grimace"}}
    <br>
    brand
    {{d-icon "fab-500px"}}
    {{d-icon "fab-apple"}}
    {{d-icon "fab-aws"}}
</div>

```

I wanna paste the raw html here but it seems not support nested content inside svg tag.

I think `{{d-icon "mobile"}}` should do it? It’s a bit confusing that we have the prefix in the setting but don’t use it in templates.

Yes, and I think that site setting is the last and only place where we suggest an “fa-“ prefix. I will clean that up and bring it in line with the other places where icons are used (after this month’s release though).
