I'm using a social media module in Beaver Builder that uses Font Awesome icons. I assume it is Font Awesome 5.

When Toolset is activated, the icons disappear (small boxes display).

I've fixed using this the code from this thread:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/font-awesome-5-pro-icons-not-loading-correctly-in-beaver-builder/

Snippet:

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', function() {
wp_deregister_style('font-awesome');
}, -1 );

This appears to work - but is it still necessary? Has there been any fix to this, perhaps a setting I'm missing?
The help thread listed above is just over a year old.

Hi, at this time Toolset does not support FA 5, only FA 4. So unfortunately this workaround, or a similar one, is still required. I don't currently have an estimate available for FA 5 support, so I can't say for sure when the workaround will be obsolete.

Just a quick update to let you know Font Awesome 5 support has been added, and you can find the settings for FA in Toolset > Settings > General tab.
