Fontawesome icons not working in wordpress

Question

I am designing wordpress theme and I have downloaded fontawesome css file (.css & .min.css). I linked them properly and I can even see these files are added in header section by inspecting the source code after saving the file.

My theme is just to complete except these icons. I have used and even "fad", "fab", "far", "fal", "fas" but nothing happened. The place of the icon appears in a small rectangle. fontawesome icon

Should you use only **fa** instead of "fad", "fab", "far", "fal", "fas" . **for example** `` — Pritesh, Aug 26 '19 at 04:37

Have you tried 'fa' or you have checked its version is it new or old For old version you can add class <i class="fa fa-circle" aria-hidden="true"></i> For new version you can add class <i class="fas fa-circle"></i>
