Hello Tariq,

Thanks for writing in!

You are having this issue because of CORS or Cross Origin Resource Sharing. To resolve this issue, please check out this thread:

Hi Tariq,

Your web host should either enable CORS in their server setup or they need to set up a CDN as your sub-domain. Otherwise, you will encounter broken resources not only with our theme but plugins that display icons as well because your web host does not allow resources from a CDN of another domain to be displayed.

Although our theme is affected, this is not an issue with our theme but your web host.

We wish that this issue will be resolved by your web host.
