    I am trying to make image slider on product page.
    Is there a way to use the built in icon on generatepress theme, which are <, >.
    Now, the image is not showing.

    ul.flex-direction-nav {
        position: absolute;
        top: 48%;
        z-index: 99999;
        width: 100%;
        left: 0;
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0px;
        list-style: none;}
    
    li.flex-nav-prev {float: left;}
    li.flex-nav-next {float: right;}
    a.flex-next {visibility:hidden;}
    a.flex-prev {visibility:hidden;}
    
    a.flex-next::after {
        visibility:visible;content: '\f054';
        font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 Free';
        margin-right: 10px;
        font-size: 20px;   
        font-weight: bold;
    }
    a.flex-prev::before {
        visibility:visible;
        content: '\f053';
        font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 Free';   
        margin-left: 10px;
        font-size: 20px;
        font-weight: bold;
    }
    ul.flex-direction-nav li a {
        color: #ccc;
    }
    ul.flex-direction-nav li a:hover {
        text-decoration: none;
    }
    .flex-control-thumbs {
    	display: none;
    }

    Hi there,

    you can’t load the SVG icons from the theme using CSS.
    But you can URL encode an SVG using this site:

    https://yoksel.github.io/url-encoder/

    So:

    1. get the angle-right SVG HTML from Font Awesome:

    https://fontawesome.com/icons/angle-right?s=solid&f=classic

    ,which looks like:

    <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 256 512"><!--! Font Awesome Pro 6.3.0 by @fontawesome - https://fontawesome.com License - https://fontawesome.com/license (Commercial License) Copyright 2023 Fonticons, Inc. --><path d="M246.6 233.4c12.5 12.5 12.5 32.8 0 45.3l-160 160c-12.5 12.5-32.8 12.5-45.3 0s-12.5-32.8 0-45.3L178.7 256 41.4 118.6c-12.5-12.5-12.5-32.8 0-45.3s32.8-12.5 45.3 0l160 160z"/></svg>

    1.1 We clean that up and add a fill="#fff" attribute for your color, so the SVG looks like:

    <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 256 512" fill="#fff"><path d="M246.6 233.4c12.5 12.5 12.5 32.8 0 45.3l-160 160c-12.5 12.5-32.8 12.5-45.3 0s-12.5-32.8 0-45.3L178.7 256 41.4 118.6c-12.5-12.5-12.5-32.8 0-45.3s32.8-12.5 45.3 0l160 160z"/></svg>

    2. We pass that through: https://yoksel.github.io/url-encoder/

    2.1 And get the background URL property from the css it generated ie.

    url("data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 256 512' fill='%23fff'%3E%3Cpath d='M246.6 233.4c12.5 12.5 12.5 32.8 0 45.3l-160 160c-12.5 12.5-32.8 12.5-45.3 0s-12.5-32.8 0-45.3L178.7 256 41.4 118.6c-12.5-12.5-12.5-32.8 0-45.3s32.8-12.5 45.3 0l160 160z'/%3E%3C/svg%3E");

    3. You can then use that in your CSS like so:

    
    a.flex-next::after {
        visibility:visible;
        content: url("data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 256 512' fill='%23fff'%3E%3Cpath d='M246.6 233.4c12.5 12.5 12.5 32.8 0 45.3l-160 160c-12.5 12.5-32.8 12.5-45.3 0s-12.5-32.8 0-45.3L178.7 256 41.4 118.6c-12.5-12.5-12.5-32.8 0-45.3s32.8-12.5 45.3 0l160 160z'/%3E%3C/svg%3E");
        height: 30px;
        width: 30px;
    }

    Repeat the process with the FA icon angel-left

    I did what you said,, but the size is different..
    Did you use pro icon?? the left one is much bigger than right one.

    
    a.flex-prev::before {
        visibility:visible;
        content: url("data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 256 512' fill='%23fff'%3E%3Cpath d='M9.4 233.4c-12.5 12.5-12.5 32.8 0 45.3l160 160c12.5 12.5 32.8 12.5 45.3 0s12.5-32.8 0-45.3L77.3 256 214.6 118.6c12.5-12.5 12.5-32.8 0-45.3s-32.8-12.5-45.3 0l-160 160z'/%3E%3C/svg%3E");
        height: 30px;
        width: 30px;
    }

    I figured it out. I just downloaded the image from other sources and use it there.

    One problem is that when I click the enlarge magnifier icon on the top and right side, I can still see the arrow.

    The arrow is supposed to removed when the magnifier icon is clicked.
    Could you fix this?

    Hi Jusung,

    Try reducing the z-index value in the CSS code you shared here from 99999 to just 100.
