Hey Discourse,

I have been away from my website for over 4 months for a reason and I have read that Font Awesome 5 icons are now SVG files, or something, pardon my ignorance. I’m very rusty and not very technically skilled and I would simply really appreciate how I can get my icons back because everything appears broken.

Regards, Thank you. 😁

Yes, but I still don’t understand how I can get the icons back. Please, this is crucial.

Please review [Introducing Font Awesome 5 and SVG icons](https://meta.discourse.org/t/introducing-font-awesome-5-and-svg-icons/101643), all the details are within that topic. Specifically, look for details on `svg icon subset`.
