Bootstrap Table Icons Not Showing

Question

I am creating a bootstrap-table (version 1.18) leveraged off of bootstrap version 4.5.2

And everything appears to be working properly except the table icons are not showing - however the table control functions they represent ARE working (i.e. the print button still works)

I'm thinking that I am missing an extension for the icons? But noting seems to reference that, and previous iterations based off of previous versions of the bootstrap and bootstrap-table DID work.

Below is are my extension imports and my table set up, along with two photos showing the mia icons with working buttons.

And the Table set up

<table id="varTable" class="table table-striped table-condensed table-hover table-sm table-responsive mx-auto"
style='width: 90%; margin-left: 2%; margin-right: 2%' 
data-toggle="varTable"

Thoughts?

Answer 1

I was having the same problem. What fixed it for me was manually adding the fontawesome style sheet.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://kit-free.fontawesome.com/releases/latest/css/free.min.css">

Answer 2

More recent versions of bootstrap-table (1.19.0 or newer) use bootstrap icons as default icons instead of fontawesome. To fix the missing icons, add the bootstrap-icons stylesheet, e.g., for version 1.8.1 of bootstrap-icons add:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/font/bootstrap-icons.css">
