*** SOLVED *** Fontawsome Icons Disappear In Firefox

[Jon_AK]

I have firefox set as my default browser so when previewing a page, any of the fontawsome icons on the page either disappear after about 3 seconds or simply do not show. This problem does not occur in Chrome. I found this text in a firefox support article: "restricts the kinds of files that pages can load (and methods of loading) when you open them from a file:// URL." & it states to change the value of the privacy.file_unique_origin value to false but that did not help. I have not published the page as I have just begun to learn Wysiwygwebbuilder so am wondering when the page gets published, will this not be an issue or is there something that needs to be added to make this compatible with firefox?

I am not aware of any issues with icons and FireFox.
Maybe you will need to clear your browser cache?

Or else check the error console (F12) of the browser to see if there is an error.

I did clear the cache earlier before posting my request but failed to look for errors. I started a new project with a single blank page & placed a single icon from the fontawsome library onto the page & the error results are below. It does not do this if the material library icons are chosen instead of the fontawsome library. Not sure if it is WWWB installation on my laptop or the firefox installation but I have yet to try this on my desktop machine.

I do not think this error is related to WWB.
If it works for you in Chrome then it's most like an issue in FireFox.

If you need further assistance then please share a demo project so we can check if something is wrong with your project.

I wass able to correct this. It required refreshing firefox as the problem did not exist on my desktop computer & has since disappeared after repairing the firefox installation. Thanks for your reponse...
