I'm pretty sure this is the correct forum to ask this, it's my first time posting outside of the PHP forums. I'm building (trying to build) a web app, it's pretty much a practice project so I'm not ready or able to invest in font awesome pro so I've been using their free icons. The issue I'm inquiring about is the font-awesome.min.css file. I've used it in one file and am able to use a certain icon which is listed as a free icon, but I'm not able to get the icon to appear in other places that are linked to the same file. The icon in question is "fa fa-newspaper" icon, if that makes a difference. I can use it in one area of the app but not in another. I suspected I'm using 2 different font-awesome.min.css files. (the project started with a template that I have expanded and customized beyond recognition) but no matter how much I move them around and link them I can't get that one icon to work anywhere else on the app. Nothing I find in searching around tackles this, and it seems like such a silly thing. So I'm wondering if anyone has any input or some knowledge/experience that could answer this question for me. (I'm aware that font-awesome probably has some dependencies so instead of linking to existing files I've tried to copy the file structure into it's own directory) That particular icon still doesn't work, it's not a matter of life and death but it's baffling. So I'm wondering if anyone can explain this to me. TIA
