css - Font Awesome 5 font-family issue

Question

I integrated Font Awesome 5 in a project with bootstrap 4. When I recall a font via CSS it does not work. with Font Awesome 4 the code was as follows:

#mainNav .navbar-collapse .navbar-sidenav .nav-link-collapse:after {
  float: right;
  content: "f107";
  font-family: "FontAwesome";
}

I tried to change the font name but it does not work

font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 Free'

Answer 1

Your Unicode is wrong f107

a::after {
  content: "f007";
  font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 Free';
}
