Greetings:

I just realized lately that the search icon located in my theme menu is no longer working… one can still see the magnifying glass but it no longer works.

You can see the issue here in the upper right menu of https://depquebec.com

After running some tests, I came to the conclusion that a recent upgrade of GeoDirectory is most likely the culprit and, according to my theme provider, seems to be “loading FontAwesome 5 library via JS” which is causing this conflict.

Is this a known issue and could it be solved somehow?

Thanks,

Guy

Please share wp admin credentials and login URL in a private reply and we will check on the issue on your site.

GD has been upgraded to the latest FA. If you haven’t already, do ask your theme author about their plans for upgrade to FA 5 JS SVG and share this link with them.

Hi Stiofan,

Looks great, thanks!

Can I install the newest version over yours? It won’t let me do it automatically this time — maybe because you made changes — unless I remove the current one and re-install it.

Let me know.

Cheers,

Guy
