Icons not displaying in View mode (outline). They will display when you click on the specific article, but in the overview/outline they will either not appear at all or appear as a gray square. Increasing the font size does not fix it.

Steps to Reproduce

With no theme loaded, the "view" mode does not display icons (or instead only displays gray squares).

Hey there, which page is this, and how did you add the icons there in the first place.

Which icons are you using?

natdoegen @ 11 Nov, 2025 10:47:42

Sorry Dimitiris, I just saw this.

The icons were added on the main page for making the folder or article - Next to the name, when you click on the icon, you choose from the selections. I'm not adding icons with code or anything, just the ones that are readily available to choose from.

For reference, if that helps!

Some icons show, they are like "ra ra-spikeball", and the ones that are not showing are like "ra-angelwings" etc, missing the first "ra ". I think the automatic recognition by WA of which icon set to use and adjusting the names with the missing stuff like "fas", "fa-regular", or "ra" is not fully working yet.

Yep, same thing here. Very annoying.

Same issue.

same issue, can't find a workaround for folder-icons (since no "old editor" available)

The ra icons are showing but the fa are not (no gray squares, just missing).

Hello all, we have just released a fix that should resolve all missing icon! Please take a look and let me know if you can still find a location in the World view page where icons are still not displaying correctly.
