how to properly include icons in the announcement bar CSS?

I've been trying to follow some tutorials on how to add images to the announcement bar so I can place a phone and mail icons however I found that the icons do not keep their size and when switching to the mobile view it becomes very small and places itself distant from the text; I've no experience at all with code 😅 this is what I have at the moment, any help would be amazing 🙂 Thank you!

.sqs-announcement-bar:before {
  content:"";
  background-image: url(https://static1.squarespace.com/static/649d26c0f9f0f25c9e456df9/t/64ad68f6216e96626c728b7e/1689086198121/tele.png);
  
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
   background-size: 100%100%!important;
  padding: 0.1vw;
  padding-inline: 0.1vw;
  float: left;
  margin-top: 0.3vw;
  margin-left: 2vw;
  width: 2vw;
  height: 2vw;
  
}
.sqs-announcement-bar-text {margin-right: 1vw;
height: 1.5vw
}

The size looks fine to me.

You want all text icon on same line?

Oh, after a while I gave up and resorted to copy paste the phone/mail emojis. 😅 what I was trying to achieve was using a custom image for the phone/mail however the image in question couldn't keep the size so it made the announcement bar to enlarge or the image would become very small were you could barely see it.

I added the phone Icon back into the announcement bar so you can see! thank you for looking into it! 🙂

Hi @Tuanphan

I am trying to add font awesome social icons to the announcement bar. I tried using the code from this post and adding the <i> code for font awesome inside the content:""; area but the html wasn't processed. What would be the best way to do this?

The site url doesn't work. Can you check it again?

Two ways to add FA icon

First is use i code on Markdown Block or Code Block. You can't use it in content: ""

Two is use FA Unicode code into content: "", something like this content: "\f073"; however you need to declare font-family. Each FA version will have a different font-family - To find Unicode code, click icon on FA website 

Thank you!
