    Description

      The classic theme extends the boost theme and overrides the fontawesome icon system class. It defines that extension in theme/classic/config.php:

      $THEME->iconsystem = '\\theme_classic\\output\\icon_system_fontawesome';

      However when the theme fetches the icon data via the web service, it calls:

      $instance = icon_system::instance(icon_system::FONTAWESOME);

      It completely ignores the theme setting for both the current site theme, and the current theme for the current context (i.e. course, category, and cohort themes) and the current user preference.
