Hi all, I seem to be missing some font awesome icons. I found a post with custom CSS from last year that filled in some, but I am still missing the shield for user profiles, and also this one here shown in the screenshot at https://www.screencast.com/t/ZxsmcqdmeLw6

 

I have this in the custom CSS so far:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap {
font-size: 13px; width: 100%; padding:10px 0; margin:0px;
}

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .fa-mail-reply:before, #wpforo #wpforo-wrap .fa-reply:before {
content: "\f112" !important;
}

.fa-layer-group:before {
content: "\f5fd";
font-weight: 900 !important;
font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Free" !important;
}

How do I get the others added in?

@michaelwilding,

Please navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Styles admin page, put the CSS code below in the "Custom CSS Code" textarea, save it, delete all caches and check again:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .fa-mail-reply:before, #wpforo #wpforo-wrap .fa-reply:before {
content: "\f3e5" !important;
}

Press CTRL+F5 (twice) on the forum frontend before checking.

Got two other questions as well:

1) you'll notice on the homepage that the first two forums aren't expanded, but the setting is to expanded (cache deleted etc.)

2) How do I change the order of expanded on a topic to be most recent at top instead of bottom?

Thanks

1) you'll notice on the homepage that the first two forums aren't expanded, but the setting is to expanded (cache deleted etc.)

Please let us know have you set the "Expanded" value for the "Extended Layout - Recent topic
" option? The option is located in the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Forums admin page. 

2) How do I change the order of expanded on a topic to be most recent at top instead of bottom?

I'm sorry, but there is no option for this. I'd suggest you read the Robert's answer in this support topic:
