Missing waybar icons

[lokesh-krishna]

My bad, that font was used back in Nord v2 but I moved to using Nerd Fonts from Nord v3 onwards.
You can visit the repo and pick a font of your choosing and the icons should work fine.

If you are interested in the same look as in the screenshots with respect to the text in the bar then go for JetBrains Mono but the icons themselves remain the same irrespective of which font you pick.

Can you test this config? It makes use of just Nerd Font icons and shouldn't have dependencies on any other fonts. I can use all the icons in it even after removing Material Design Icons but would like to confirm before I push this to the repo.

Here is what the bar looks like presently:

Hi thank you for your response

I have installed Nerd font form aur but waybar still looks like this

[SkelyTony]

I removed icons form config it works now but I think it looks better with icons

I can confirm that that's the case for me too when Material Design Icons Desktop isn't installed but can reliably fix it by installing Material Design Icons Desktop. Are you sure that's the exact font you installed and can you confirm that the font is indeed installed by running fc-cache -fv followed by fc-list | grep -i material?

heya! the icons on the sakura rice are broken as well. we could only get the volume icon to show up even after installing all of the nerd fonts available, fontawesome and material icons.

I won't be abile to use my pc for the next few days so I will test it later
