Thank you Hills.
I had already read that link and I couldn’t figure out how to make it work. The truth is, to use Ionicons is just too complex for a beginner. I think people don’t realize that beginners don’t know even a fraction of the terminology used in the field and don’t explain things accordingly.
Anyway, I was able to find another icon source that was easy to follow and got what I needed to work.
I appreciate your response, though. Thank you again.
EDIT: for those who are having the same issue, the other source is Font Awesome.
