Calendar and Font Awesome - no icons
-
@RGN01 try ‘fa-house’ rather than house. Follow through the same for each. Make sure they’re not the pro versions, they won’t work.
https://fontawesome.com/icons/house?f=classic&s=solid is the example - use the HTML version.

@BKeyport thank you for your assistance. I’m still battling. I now have this:
{ url: 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/calendar1redacted/basic.ics', symbol: 'fa-house', symbolClassName: "fas fa-", color: 'crimson' },The icons (the placeholders) have now disappeared completely and the text shifted left. I have also tried “fa-solid”, “fas”, and “fa-solid fa-” for symbolClassName.

@PierreGode Thank you for your help and no need to apologise for the Swedish!
I have tried using your approach (and your icons and colours) with new keywords to match - and the colouring works but I still don’t get the icons (I get empty frames).
It is making me wonder if there is an underlying dependency that I’m missing. I have checked that Calendar is up to date and it is, as is my MM installation.
I will keep on battling away to identify the issue!

Course we could get around this hassle if Electron would just support full emojis. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@RGN01 i just installed a new instance of MM, and used your settings for symbol, color and symbolClassName. and they all worked.
I only used this classname
symbolClassName: “fas fa-”, the other works too “fas fa-fw fa-”
-
@BKeyport Thank you - perhaps that is my path of least resistance - reinstall MM.
I’ll give that a go on the weekend, if I don’t figure this out before.
-
@RGN01 what version are you running?
see the startup messages or the top of package.json -
