Hi,'m just wondering If I can replace a tab on the navigation raw with an icon.Eg Where it says "Media" ,d like to put a flag or some icon...Is that possible or no?How can I do that?...Thanks
 
You can do it with Font Awesome... just need to add some CSS to the extra.less template.

I can't recall who posted this originally here in the Xenforo forums but here's the gist:

Code:
/* add font awesome icons to nav menu items */
.p-navEl a:before,
.menu-content a:before{
    font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 Pro';
    padding-right: 5px;
}

.p-navE1 a[data-nav-id="whatsNewPosts"]:before{content:"\f067"; }
.p-navE1 a[data-nav-id="recent_posts"]:before{content:"\f067"; }
.p-navEl a[data-nav-id="home"]:before {content:"\f015";}
.p-navEl a[data-nav-id="forums"]:before{content:"\f27a";}
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="newPosts"]:before{content:"\f067"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="findThreads"]:before{content:"\f002"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="yourThreads"]:before{content:"\f498"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="contributedThreads"]:before{content:"\f5d2"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="unansweredThreads"]:before{content:"\f05e"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="watched"]:before{content:"\f1e5"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="watchedThreads"]:before{content:"\f5da"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="watchedForums"]:before{content:"\f5da"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="searchForums"]:before{content:"\f002"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="markForumsRead"]:before{content:"\f058"; }
.p-navEl a[data-nav-id="whatsNew"]:before{content:"\f0f3"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="whatsNewPosts"]:before{content:"\f067"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="whatsNewProfilePosts"]:before{content:"\f007"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="whatsNewNewsFeed"]:before{content:"\f1ea"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="latestActivity"]:before{content:"\f043"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="xfmgWhatsNewNewMedia"]:before {content:"\f03e"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="xfmgWhatsNewMediaComments"]:before{content:"\f0e6"; }

    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="newProfilePosts"]:before{content:"\f086"; }
    .menu-content a[data-nav-id="searchProfilePosts"]:before{content:"\f002"; }

.p-navgroup-link.p-navgroup-link--textual.p-navgroup-link--logIn {
    &:before { font-family: "Font Awesome 5 Pro"; padding-right: 5px; content: "\f023";}}

    content: "\f502";
    padding-right: 10px;   
}

a[href$="/approval-queue/"]:before {
    font-family:'Font Awesome 5 Pro' !important;
    content: "\f05b";
    padding-right: 10px !important;   
}

a[href$="/reports/"]:before {
    font-family:'Font Awesome 5 Pro' !important;
    content: "\f648";
    padding-right: 10px !important;   
}
