XF 2.2 Voting Icons Disappeared!

Tried for over 2 hours, did attempt but to no avail.

We used to have an old style that worked back in 2019 or so, and got updated when the site owner hired someone to make a better style.
A request was made to fix the old style, and allow it to be a retro style for old users. After fixing a few issues, I seem to be stuck on upvote and downvote icons appearing.

- This is what it looks like. I checked quite a lot, using templates and even verifying that we use the same icon in the main theme (which we do), however still does not display.

I have attempted to make a new default style, and see if it shows up, which it does. I cannot find any custom styling for this, everything seems to be normal.

- Only alternative I got in my mind right now, which was to go to the template that displays the HTML for this, and add the icons manually. It is not perfect, and needs a bit more styling, however I'd like to try and fix the initial issue rather than a cheap fix.
HTML:
<div class="message-cell message-cell--vote">
                

    
    
    <div class="contentVote  js-contentVote " data-xf-init="content-vote" data-content-id="thread-411154">
        

        <a href="/threads/RETRACTED/vote?type=up" class="contentVote-vote  contentVote-vote--up " data-vote="up"><span class="u-srOnly">Upvote</span><i class="fa--xf far fa-arrow-alt-up"></i></a>

        <span class="contentVote-score is-positive  js-voteCount" data-score="1">1</span>

        
            <a href="/threads/RETRACTED/vote?type=down" class="contentVote-vote  contentVote-vote--down " data-vote="down"><span class="u-srOnly">Downvote</span><i class="fa--xf far fa-arrow-alt-down"></i></a>
        
    </div>


            </div>

Thank you for any of those who try to help! Appreciate it massively.

Is "app_content_vote.less" customized at all?

Make sure "app.less" is also up-to-date as the app_content_vote.less is included there. If you didn't update that template and it's not included, it will look like that.

Oh my. That's perfect! Thank you very much, seems it was edited. No clue how I missed this, my search results shows I went into app.less 15 times. Adding it back fixed it!
