      Colour, with a u! I’m British using British English! ;-)

      OK, CSS. It’s only using favicon codes, not images on a URL

       #module_3_calendar .fa.fa-calendar-check-o {
        color: #00d255 /* 55=Green FF=Blue*/
      }
      
       #module_4_calendar  .fa.fa-trash-o  {
        color: #C97F7F; /* Brown */
      }

        #module_3_calendar

        u are using ID(#) to select

        probably changed locations in the config.js

          Makes no difference, the icons still don’t show.

            what did you define in the symbol: section in the config.js?

            May these icons are outdated, you can search here for icons, only free icons will work.

              I have these, both of which were working perfectly well prior to this update

              symbol: 'calendar-check-o ',
              symbol: 'trash-o ',
              

              And having configured the new weather module, those icons are responding to custom css just fine.

              No idea why calendar icons won’t work.

                  This worked perfectly prior to the most recent update.

                  Deleted said space, still no icons.
                  Appropriate code below for reference:

                  .calendar .fa.fa-calendar-check-o {

                      Bit familiar with the F12 console, but it’s not easy to select the exact spot.

                      3a7bcf68-c2f6-4f9c-a6a1-94cb7176cd69-image.png

                      .calendar .fa.fa-calendar-check-o {
                        color: #00d255 /* 55=Green FF=Blue*/
                      }
                      

                      Change it to this?

                      .calendar.module.calendar  .fa.fa-calendar-check-o {
                        color: #00d255 /* 55=Green FF=Blue*/
                      }
                      

                      Or?

                      .module.calendar  .fa.fa-calendar-check-o {
                        color: #00d255 /* 55=Green FF=Blue*/
                      }

                        @Richard238 in main.css comment out cursor:none
                        /* cursor:none */

                        reload the MM page

                        select the elements tab
                        select the arrow top left of the developers page

                        navigate the mouse to the check icon in the calendar display
                        click on the icon

                        int he elements page is the html of the element selected
                        and its class name is shown

                        use that …

                        thats what I did, copied your css, didn’t work (as u said)
                        found the element , and its new class name
                        changed the css
                        refreshed the page and it worked.

                        I want YOU to do it, so next time you know how/why

                          I guess ‘elements’ is from another browser type, I’m in Firefox where it’s called Inspector.

                          But anyway, I clicked where the calendar icon ought to be, where its name shows on the cursor hover, and got this

                          ac62edd3-78dc-48db-b911-c2766dc08a09-image.png

                          Changed css

                          .calendar .fas fa-fw fa-calendar-check-o {
                            color: #00d255 /* 55=Green FF=Blue*/
                          }
                          
                          

                          Still no icon though :-/

                            }

                            css selectors are the problem
                            https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp

                            so, your definition says

                            for the CLASS calendar

                            find ALL elements that match (.fas fa-fw fa-calendar-check)
                            and set their color (foreground text color style ) to …

                            so, lets examine the

                            .fas fa-fw fa-calendar-check
                            

                            in the element this is ALL inside the class= attribute

                            class="fas fa-fw fa-calendar-check"
                            

                            so to SELECT based on CLASS the names need dots in front

                            name = tagname (<p, <img, <table …
                            .name = class name ( .calendar
                            #name = id of element ( id=“fred” #fred

                            no space between selectors means ALL

                            Selects all elements with both name1 and name2 set within its class attribute

                            space between selectors means ALL AND directly child/parent

                            Selects all elements with name2 that is a descendant of an element with name1

                            and there are other types > < ~ … which mean this ??? in children elements, etc,

                            what your string says is
                            under the calendar CLASS (.calendar)
                            for CLASS of fas (.fas)
                            AND
                            element of fa-fw (<fa-fw)
                            AND
                            element of fa-calendar-check (<fa-calendar-check)

                            but you dont have the two ‘elements’ cause they are used in the class attribute

                            in your case you only need ONE (not all)

                            and its a CLASS (so leading .)

                            .calendar .fa-calendar-check{
                            ....
                            }

                              Goodness, that’s complicated! Well, it kinda makes sense but, I’ll read it again when not so tired.

                              Sadly, still nothing. (Commented second one out in case it was the cause, but no luck there.)

                               .calendar .fa-calendar-check-o {
                                color: #00d255 /* 55=Green FF=Blue */
                              }
                              
                              /*
                              .calendar .fa-trash-o  {
                                color: #C97F7F; /* Brown 
                              }
                              */ 
                              

                              Also tried a known working fa icon from the weather module, but again, nothing.

                                @Richard238 it worked with the change (oops)

                                note that the selector is NOT -o

                                I used your text in the message, not the ACTUAL class on the element… my bad…

                                thats why we LOOK IT UP!..

                                  Even though the icon is fa-calendar-check-o
                                  https://fontawesome.com/v4/icon/calendar-check-o

                                  we omit the -o ?

                                    @Richard238 see the exact class used on the element, we use the ACTUAL info, not whatever ‘config’ says

                                    oh, using on MY machine, using the default calendar config …

                                      class? element? I try, but I’m not much of a coder. I’m hopelessly lost, as I’m sure you can tell.

                                      I appreciate your efforts but sadly this is way beyond my skills. :(

                                      I’ll live without the icon for now and perhaps revisit another day.

                                        @Richard238 and I look at the fontawesome 6 lib and calendar-check-o is no more

                                        I set calendar-check-o in my config and get nothing, look at the elements and see fa-calendar-check-o

                                        but it doesn’t exist

                                          Not coloured (even changing solid to light), but it’s an icon :)

                                          .calendar .fa-solid fa-calendar {
                                            color: #00d255 /* 55=Green FF=Blue */
                                          }
                                          
                                          
                                          .calendar .fa-light fa-trash-can  {
                                            color: #C97F7F; /* Brown */
                                          }
                                          

                                          The other icons used to work, pre update.
                                          Did MM change which fa library they use?
                                          The fa libraries ought to be backwards compatible, no?

                                          More tomorrow, I need sleep. :sleeping_face:

                                            @Richard238 yes, libs should be backward compatible… but nobody cares much for that anymore…
