I took a look at his forum and it isn’t very clear. His current Discourse version is supposed to be: > Discourse v3.4.1 — [https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commits/25a8e64a53](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commits/25a8e64a53) Using Ember Inspector, I can see ![This image shows a segment of HTML and AngularJS code for a hamburger menu with various event listeners and bindings involving Discourse services and models.

It’s not part of the stable version yet, unless I’m wrong (?). The setting returns nothing: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/4/7/6/476f3ae0b366ac292611affbeacd49b8115033a1.png) But once we do set manually a value, the icon appears: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/8/f/f/8ffec248abd6d8083801c2fa5e70493d6d6cca1e.png) ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/f/5/b/f5ba810837e6c16886746387c5ae9a083f08259b.png) Did you downgrade at some point from the latest to the stable version? It’s confusing, not sure what’s happening. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/search-icon-disappeared-after-upgrade-to-3-4-1/356859)._
