Something about my child theme is breaking the icon short codes

[jessyhanley]

Hello,

On this page of my site https://www.jessyandmelissa.com/soft-and-sophisticated-autumn-pumpkin-centerpiece/

I am using several icons on the page using the old shortcode format like this:
[icon type="scissors"]

I have determined that it’s my child-theme that is causing the issue (I verified by switching to the non-child theme and I saw the icons again.

Any suggestions on how I can get them to work again?

Hello @jessyhanley,

Thanks for writing in! The issue is not coming from the Child theme. Go to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS and find this code:

i.x-icon  {
display:none;
}
}

You’ll need to remove it because that CSS rule is hiding the icon on your site.

Keep us posted on how things progress!

Thank you so much, I had added that to remove the drop down in the nav only and it used to work… but it’s fixed now!

Thank you so much!
