Have you tried: https://community.mybb.com/thread-217129...pid1315029? I modified slightly for FA 4 .7 and FA 5 and tested both. Both appear to be working fine.

It was what I did, even though I can not get it to work

Hmm, it was tested on 4.7 last night and worked and I just added the FA 5 parts to the instructions like 15 minutes ago and upon testing, they also worked fine. Also, looking back at your picture..., that clearly shows the template and css edits are most likely fine but something is incorrect in you fa library include via headerinclude. Just a thought. Perhaps that is where you will find any error and solution.
thanks I could manage to do it for some reason I did not link in header_include

for some strange reason it looks good in mozilla firefox but it does not look good in chrome

Here is my forum info
URL: https://foro.guitarravallenata.com
MyBB version: 1.8.18
Theme: Default
PHP Version 7.1.21
SQL Engine MySQLi 10.1.36
test user: traste/espacio
FA: 4.7.0

I followed all steps given in your first post:
https://community.mybb.com/thread-217129...pid1302474

Yet, it is not working for me. Please let me know if I'm missed a step or something is not right with my forum install.

Thanks,

Confused This is still not working for me. There's a test user account. Please let me know where I went wrong.
Guys, I am sorry but I dont know how to help you... it is working on my test board, on my 3 live boards without any issue. Yesterday I fixed @Mattaffix's site. The only issue was that the FontAwesome library was loaded via CDN, not locally so maybe some issue on the FontAwesome server?
For those having trouble linking FA for whatever reason, have you tried adding FA internally?

For example to add the 4.7 library attached below you would add this to your headerinclude:


<link rel="stylesheet" href="{$mybb->asset_url}/fontawesome/css/font-awesome.min.css">


And then uploading the FA library to your forum directory. Below you will find a zip file of the FA 4.7 library that you can add internally.

Just a question how do I add the verfied icons you have near your name in the examples shown up?

That is online/offline icon replacement...

Most basic way is as follows:


Replace postbit_online with:

<a href="online.php" title="{$lang->postbit_status_online}"><i class="fas fa-check-circle online" alt="{$lang->postbit_status_online}"></i></a>


Replace postbit_offline with:


<i class="fas fa-times-circle offline" title="{$lang->postbit_status_offline}" alt="{$lang->postbit_status_offline}"></i>


You can then modify further by css for example this basic usage is pulling from existing offline and online class for coloring..., so you could replace those in the call with your custom classes and allow for positioning, coloring, and whatever else you so desire...

What about the FA 5 library? Is that readily available? (I meant the free version, not the paid version)

It is available but I have yet to strip down the dist pkg to make it small enough for theme include as the dist pkg is roughly around 9 gb extraction on initial download from font awesome site. https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.....1-web.zip

9 GB?? Yikes!! Pretty big!

When you make the "light-weight" version of FA 5, can you post the download link in this thread or make it available in the Extend section?
