[Resolved] Font Awesome Icons in Footer Widget

Hello Leo and all –

You all have been incredibly helpful so far – thanks! I am trying to add simple icons to my footer (phone, email, etc) to jazz up the contact section. I have read the forum articles on adding fontawesome icons, but it does not work. The spot where they are supposed to be is blankety blank. I am using Beaver Builder as well. When I try to insert a fontawesome into a page…it is there for a moment, and then disappears when you publish. I had “Custom Sidebars” plugin activated, but I tried deactivating it and no change.

Am I meant to be enqueing font-awesome somewhere, or turning something on?
On the site, you can look in the right hand footer. Between the Association title and the email, there is a blank spot where this code lives: <i class=”fa fa-phone”></i>
<i class=”fa fa-envelope-o”></i>

And as you see, the spot is blank. Thanks in advance! (Alternatively, if there is a simple plugin you like to jazz up footers – I can just do that!)
