SOLVED font awesome icons not showing in GP menu

[Brett]

Hi Tom and others,

I had a site that was not showing the FA icons in the menu though I had success in my own site.
I followed the instructions at https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/fontawesome/ and could see the code in the html.
I found that the link rel for font awesome was not there.
After a lot of head scratching and dead ends I looked at what plugins were different between the sites.
The first one I deactivated resolved the issue!

Conclusion: NextGen Optimiser (an extra for gallery) is incompatible with GP or Font Awesome.

GeneratePress is awesome!

Interesting – thanks for posting!

That plugin must prevent the menu from rendering HTML for some reason.

In this case, a plugin like this may be helpful: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/menu-icons/

Thanks again!
