CSS rules to apply in different Font Awesome cases
In order to make the arrows work in the accordion you must complement the CSS code above with the following codes that are depending on the Font Awesome versions set in the FAQ module.
FA load mode: FA v4.7.0 or FA v6.
If your FAQ module's styling is set for FA v4.7.0 or FA v6.0.0 you should add this code among the other CSS codes in JAmp.
.faqs label:after { content: '\f078'; position: absolute; top: 5px; right: 8px; font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Free"; font-weight: 900; transform: rotate(90deg); transition: .3s transform; }
FA load mode: Don't load FA
If you don't want to load Font Awesome, choose this option within the module. In this case the accordion will use unicode icons, however for this you should also set 'CSS without FA' at 'CSS file to use' field. If this is the case you can turn off 'Include Font Awesome' setting from the template, that has been configured to 'yes' previously. Then add this code:
.faqs label:after { content: '\00AB'; position: absolute; top: 5px; right: 8px; font-weight: 900; transform: rotate(0deg); transition: .3s transform; }
