Icon Next to Author Not Showing Up

[Thryvewell]

Hi there,

I just noticed that the author “icon” next to the author meta data on posts is not showing up. The other icons next to the date, tag, and comments, however, is working. Any idea why this is happening? I will provide an example URL.

Hi @Thryvewell,

Thanks for reaching out.

Does it have a custom code? I checked and your post meta code still old, example,

The attribute is still data-x-icon, the new code should contain like this with data-x-icon-s

    $author = sprintf( '<span><i class="x-icon-pencil" data-x-icon-s="&#xf303;"></i> %s</span>',
      get_the_author()
    );

Please change the data attribute in your custom code.

Thanks!

@Rad

$author = sprintf( ‘<span><i class=“x-icon-pencil” data-x-icon-s=“”></i> %s</span>’,
get_the_author()
);

That did the trick, thank you!
