academicons on about-links

[joaojcorreia]

I've used your template to create my personal website. In order to have the orcid icon I added the academicons extension to quarto. I wanted to have an about link with my orcid, and wanted to use the orcid logo.

However, when I add the correct academicons tag to a about-links and rendered it (for example 'ai ai-orcid'), the rendering ads fi- before the tags, stopping them from appearing properly. Is there anyway to get around this (other than manually editing the rendered files)?

Thank you for you assistance.

Hi @joaojcorreia,

I circumvented this by placing the icon in the text itself. As an example,

- text: "{{< ai google-scholar >}} Google Scholar"

You can replace "google-scholar" with any of the icon names here. It seemed to appear correctly for me!
