Mask FontAwesome Icons missing in NewContentElementWizard

[nhovratov]

TYPO3 v12 / Mask v8.1

See: https://forge.typo3.org/issues/100901

Are there any updates on this topic?

[nhovratov]

No, not really. I would recommend to use SVG icons directly.

Does it make sense to +1 at https://forge.typo3.org/issues/100901 ?

[ursbraem]

Also, maybe it's possible to additionally load FontAwesome directly from Mask or Sitepackage for the time being? Not?

[nhovratov]

The problem is, that the CSS is not applied anymore in the New Content Element Wizard, as it is now a Web Component. There is no workaround for Mask. I don't know if someone is willing to spend time investigating the issue in the Core.

About the SVG icons: they have to be wired via TS right? That's a bit tedious. Would it be future proof(er) to disable the FA selector entirely and replace it by a Field in the module?

[nhovratov]

You can put an SVG file with the Content Element name in a folder and it will be loaded automatically: https://docs.typo3.org/p/mask/mask/8.3/en-us/BackendPreview/Index.html#preview-image-for-a-content-element

Woot! That's great news. So I think we'll switch to that with every v12 site

I added the svg icons as described (in the EXT:{your_sitepackage}/Resources/Public/Mask). However, they are still not displayed in the new content element wizard. They show up only in the page module.

@vitamys Maybe cache? Could you try to clear all browser cache + local Storage ?

[vitamys]

clearing the local Storage did the trick! Thank you!

Hello, I have the same problem (TYPO3 v12 and Mask 8.3.10). I've tried as described here and in the docs but I can't get my icon. Should we keep the fontAwesome icon definition in the mask.json? Should the files in the svg folder have specific rights? When you say the name of the content, is it the name (YouTube & Vimeo) or the key (youtube_vimeo) in your example? I've tried clearing all my caches but nothing changes. In my example I have the content "Accordion box" with the key "accordion_box". So what would the name of my file be? Thanks in advance

[nhovratov]

Should we keep the fontAwesome icon definition in the mask.json?

You can keep it, but it will do nothing. In the next Mask version, the Icon Picker will vanish completely.

Should the files in the svg folder have specific rights?

no, just the default rights for public files.

So what would the name of my file be?

It would simply be accordion_box.svg

Thank you for your reply! In the end it's the content key and in fact I was emptying the caches but not the local storage and that was the problem...
