Hy!!

I have an old site with Joomla 3 and I using your fantastic template Magnolia.
My problem is: when I try to add the Font Awesome for TikTok using your module "J51_InlineIcons", in the "FontAwesome Icon Class" I add "fa-tiktok", in the "Icon Title" I add "TikTok" and in the "Icon URL" I add "https://www.tiktok.com/@rev.pharmabio?_r=1&_t=ZN-92g7LDmCnlm"; but where is the icon?

Also in the template option, in "Social Media Icons", when I add a Custom Icon, the icon doesn't appear.
I read other messages in the forum, but your solution is for Joomla 4/5.

How can I resolve?
Thank you

This is (almost certainly) not due to your URL, but rather the Font Awesome version loaded in Joomla 3 / Magnolia. Many Joomla 3 templates (and some Joomla 51 setups) load Font Awesome 4.

TikTok isn't available in FA4 – the icon was added much later (FA5.14+).
That's why the icon remains empty, whether in the J51_InlineIcons or the template's social icons.

Load Font Awesome 5/6 additionally and use the correct class.
Depending on the version:

Font Awesome 5: fab fa-tiktok
Font Awesome 6: fa-brands fa-tiktok

Using just fa-tiktok alone is often insufficient in FA5/6 because "Brands" is a separate class. (In FA4 it was mostly fa fa-….)

Test in J51_InlineIcons with “FontAwesome Icon Class” e.g. E.g.: fab fa-tiktok (if you load FA5) or fa-brands fa-tiktok (if you load FA6).
