Anyone here that can help me changing my Font Awesome 4 icons to Font Awesome 5 in my forum? The theme that I downloaded is using by default FA4 but I don't wanna mess up the site

Two ways to do this: one is manual change the fa include and then modify the css and templates for the fa5 changes
Two is install the myfontawesomeicons 5 plugin following the existing fa themes install instruction fir either forumbit template reversions or since your theme has highly customized forumbits follow the same instructions but do the manual insert steps, as then that covers forum stus icons and mini forum status icons that can now be changed via forum settings and since now you have the fa5 library already installed via the plugin and the forums status icons out of the way then you can go in and modify the remaining icons on the theme templates and css for the font awesome 5 icon changes as many of the icon names and numbers have changed from 4 to 5 as well as the font name is not Fontawesome anymore it is Font Awesome 5 Free and for most icons Font weight 900 or 600 and content icon id numbers many have changed as far as css is needed but inline since now icons inline may be fas fab far etc etc the inlines would need changing also some of the icon names as well

Two while faster and more simple than option 1 still requires alot of the same work but in the end has more advantages

Currently limited on free time which option are you wanting? If it is option one, I don't need admin access I just need a copy of the theme package to install and modify on my localhost... if it is option two i could also avoid needing admin access by getting the theme pkg from you to install on localhost and install plugin on localhost modify so the plug inserts are existant in said theme then modify the rest of the icons in the theme for fa5 but either of those two options would be dependant on two things one sending me privately the theme ppkg to modify and two your patience as this will have to be done when I have the free time to do so after getting the theme pkg from you

* I also noted in that support request that this theme is not current as you can see by the offlock usage here as well as the lock usage in threads status as well as most likely the respective templates and mybb changed from lock to close a good while ago, just pointing that fact out.
