Business Woman/Person doesn't work for CPT Menu Icon

[RachelRVasquez]

Hi!

I'm not sure if this is the right place to report it - but it looks like the business person/woman icons were added back in 2018.

I'm currently trying to create a custom post type using one of those icons, and neither of them show as a menu icon when I set them. However if I use the businessman icon, that one works. 🤔 Is this a Dashicons issue or a WordPress issue?

Can you supply the relevant code snippet or snippets you've tried please?

@ntwb Here is the code below. For now I put the "dashicons-admin-site" icon instead of "dashicons-businesswoman" because it doesn't work.

$labels = [
                'name'                  => _x( 'Careers', 'Post Type General Name', 'isda_career' ),
                'singular_name'         => _x( 'Career', 'Post Type Singular Name', 'isda_career' ),
                'menu_name'             => __( 'Careers', 'isda_career' ),
                'name_admin_bar'        => __( 'Career', 'isda_career' ),

                'set_featured_image'    => __( 'Set featured image', 'isda_career' ),
                'remove_featured_image' => __( 'Remove featured image', 'isda_career' ),

            ];

            $args = [

                'labels'              => $labels,
                'supports'            => [ 'title', 'revisions', 'thumbnail' ],
                'taxonomies'          => [ 'category', 'location' ],

            ];

            register_post_type( 'career', $args );

Strange, it appears to be spelt correctly:

What about businessperson, does that work?

https://developer.wordpress.org/resource/dashicons/#businesswoman https://developer.wordpress.org/resource/dashicons/#businessperson https://developer.wordpress.org/resource/dashicons/#businessman

[RachelRVasquez]

Nope, businessperson doesn't work either. Just business man. It is definitely strange.

Can you double check the wp-includes/css/dashicons.css file for the following:

.dashicons-businessman:before {
    content: "\f338";
}

.dashicons-businessperson:before {
    content: "\f12e";
}

.dashicons-businesswoman:before {
    content: "\f12f";
}

Is your version of WordPress less than 5.2? That's when those icons were added to core.

[RachelRVasquez]

Ah hah! That might be it - I was using 5.1.2. I'm going to upgrade and see if that resolves it @nate-allen

[RachelRVasquez]

Yep that's what it was. It was good to upgrade anyway because of the new "site health" page added as well. Super helpful. Thanks @nate-allen @ntwb
