The issue is because fontawesome is not a single font of icons. Joomla includes brands, regular and solid and you need to use the additional class for those as well as the icon class
eg
fab fa-youtube
fas fa-folder-open
far fa-folder-open
fa fa-folder-open same as far above
All icons are not present in each font so it is important to use the correct additional class
Thanks for the clarifications
Yes, I used icon-xyz as font class as mentioned in my initial statement. fa-tree works fine. Thanks!
I'm aware that this is not the right place, but maybe can some expert here please point me to a description how to upgrade to fa6? I got a detailed description from ChatGBT, however it requires to alter css files, that are out of scope of overrides, so I'm not sure if this is the way to go.
thanks a lot
