Some common Fontawesome icons are not being displayed on Joomla menu



I'm trying to save space on my main menu so that it fits onto the mobile screen. However, I found that some very common icons such as sign in, sign out and toolbox are not being displayed. The on-hover tooltip displays though and the link as such does work. It's just that the icons are not shown, even though several others are.





I found the answer. The reason is that Joomla is based on boostrap 3 and thus only works with fontawesome icons version 4. The icons I was trying to use that did not work were from the newer version 5. fontawesome.com/v4.7.0
