Does this use FontAwesome 4 or 5, and if using 5, is it using webfonts or the JS+SVG implementation?

Plugin just replaces default icons like <i class="fa fa-comments"></i> with <i class="classes defined in acp"></i>. It works with FontAwesome 4 or 5 using SVG or Web Fonts depending on Font Awesome version included in your globalTemplate (it's 4 by default).

So... your plugin basically gives a control panel for the icons that are (presumably) hard-coded in the default IPS template? I'm surprised IPS doesn't have a control panel in the ACP to do that already!

One thing to note - some of the icon classes have changed with FA5, as does the main FA class - it's no longer just "fa" but now can be "fas" (font awesome solid), "far" (font awesome solid), and "fab" (font awesome brands). Does your plugin change all the classes inside the 

<i>

element to account for this?

Could you provide the url address to your community? I will check it.

could you add option to use png icons instead of FA icons?

Does this work for 4.4? 

 

Is this the same as the 'old' forum icons app?

Invision Community supports PNG icons out of the box.

Yes, it should still work.

I don't know the "old" forum icons app so unfortunately I can't answer this 😕
