Some sites seem to have permissions issues with the css file.
In your FTP program go to: wp-content/plugins/ditty-news-ticker/assets/fontastic and set the permissions (chmod) of the styles.css file to 755
Let me know if you need any more instruction or are unable to resolve this issue with this modification.

Thanks for the incredibly fast response!
Unfortunately, though, my permissions are already set to 755.
Could you point me to your site so I can check out what you’re seeing?

Unfortunately not, as it’s my localhost development site, where I test everything before deciding what to use live.
Ok. Do you see any errors in your Developer Tools > Console of your site?
The only issue I’ve seen on this has been due to permissions on the stylesheet of the fontastic font, which you’d see in the console… but, if there’s something else I’d be interested to know.
Also, are you referring to the SVG icons supplied by Ditty News Ticker, or are existing icons from your theme acting strange?

I have no errors in the Console (nor any reported by Query Monitor). The SVG icons are supplied by the WordPress Icons – SVG plugin
Ok, I see what is going on. Both plugins are setting css that control the “[data-icon]:before” display. I’m actually not using the data-icon portion of my plugin so you could just delete that from the fontastic/styles.css file. Just delete this whole chunk:
[data-icon]:before {
font-family: "ditty-news-ticker" !important;
content: attr(data-icon);
font-style: normal !important;
font-weight: normal !important;
font-variant: normal !important;
text-transform: none !important;
speak: none;
line-height: 1;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
}
I’ll probably due this in the next update of the plugin as well since it’s not being used.

Yes, that has fixed it! Thanks very much!
