Fix ActiveAdmin icons with Font Awesome 7
Description:
After bumping
@fortawesome/fontawesome-freeto 7.x, icons in the ActiveAdmin UI render as empty squares. The issue isarctic_admin's_icons.scssstill defaults$font-iconto'Font Awesome 6 Free', 'Font Awesome 6 Pro'. With Font Awesome 7 installed, the@font-faceregisters"Font Awesome 7 Free", so arctic_admin'sfont:declarations fall back to a font the browser doesn't have.Fix:
In
app/assets/stylesheets/active_admin.scss:@imports with@use … with ($font-path: ".")so the override actually propagates through FA7's module system.$font-icon: 'Font Awesome 7 Free';top-level override for arctic_admin, which still uses@importinternally and picks up!defaultoverrides the old way.Preview:
