Hi,

In order to make all favorite button consistent in style I need to change the heart icon. More specifically:
– from <i class=”fas fa-heart”></i>
– to <i class=”far fa-heart”></i>

This changes the filled heart to an outline heart.. I was looking in your code in the file ‘includes/post-functions.php’ and came across the code snippet that creates the favorite heart button. A comment there states:

/**
* Filter to modify “fas fa-heart” icon
*
* You can use this filter to change “fas fa-heart” icon to something else.
*
* @since 1.0.0
* @package GeoDirectory
*/
$favourite_icon = apply_filters( ‘geodir_favourite_icon’, ‘fas fa-heart’ );

/**
* Filter to modify “fas fa-heart” icon for “remove from favorites” link
*
* You can use this filter to change “fas fa-heart” icon to something else.
*
* @since 1.0.0
* @package GeoDirectory
*/
$unfavourite_icon = apply_filters( ‘geodir_unfavourite_icon’, ‘fas fa-heart’ );

How can I apply these filters in my functions.php?

Hi, You can add this code in your theme functions.php.
```
    add_filter('geodir_favourite_icon', 'geodir_unfavourite_icon_callback' );
    add_filter('geodir_unfavourite_icon', 'geodir_unfavourite_icon_callback' );
    function geodir_unfavourite_icon_callback(){
        return 'far fa-heart';
    }
```
