For HTML code directly, you can replace:
<i class="fas fa-arrow-left" aria-hidden="true"></i>
with:
<svg class="fa d-icon d-icon-arrow-left svg-icon svg-node" aria-hidden="true"><use xlink:href="#arrow-left"></use></svg>
Note that “arrow left” is in two places, in the class and in the <use>
tag. Also, this icon is in the solid style in FA5, but for icons in regular or brands, you need to use the prefixes far-
and fab-
, respectively.
In your header links, you can’t use :before
anymore, because SVG sprites can’t be added to pseudo selectors. But you can use this component: Header submenus (it’s been updated recently, and is FA5-compatible).
