How can I update this legacy glyphicons to work with Bootstrap 5's FontAwesome?

June 15, 2023

The following code works well using Bootstrap 3, but when I update to Bootstrap 5, the glyphicon doesn’t work.

The following is the HTML, which renders nice radio buttons. When an option is checked, it should show a nice glyphicon, but this doesn’t work in Bootstrap 5. How can I update this code to work with Bootstrap 5?

<ul class="chec-radio">
    <li class="pz">
        <label class="radio-inline">
            <input type="radio" checked="" id="pro-chx-residential" name="property_type" class="pro-chx" value="constructed">
            <div class="clab">Beginner</div>
        </label>
    </li>
    <li class="pz">
        <label class="radio-inline">
            <input type="radio" id="pro-chx-commercial" name="property_type" class="pro-chx" value="unconstructed" checked>
            <div class="clab">Intermediate</div>
        </label>
    </li>
    <li class="pz">
        <label class="radio-inline">
            <input type="radio" id="pro-chx-open" name="property_type" class="pro-chx" value="open_land">
            <div class="clab">Advanced</div>
        </label>
    </li>
</ul>

This is the CSS:

ul.chec-radio {
    margin: 15px;
}
ul.chec-radio li.pz {
    display: inline;
}
.chec-radio label.radio-inline input[type="checkbox"] {
    display: none;
}
.chec-radio label.radio-inline input[type="checkbox"]:checked+div {
    color: #fff;
    background-color: #000;
}
.chec-radio .radio-inline .clab {
    cursor: pointer;
    background: #e7e7e7;
    padding: 7px 20px;
    text-align: center;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    color: #333;
    position: relative;
    height: 34px;
    float: left;
    margin: 0;
    margin-bottom: 5px;
}
.chec-radio label.radio-inline input[type="checkbox"]:checked+div:before {
    content: "\e013";
    margin-right: 5px;
    font-family: 'Glyphicons Halflings';
}
.chec-radio label.radio-inline input[type="radio"] {
    display: none;
}
.chec-radio label.radio-inline input[type="radio"]:checked+div {
    color: #fff;
    background-color: #000;
}
.chec-radio label.radio-inline input[type="radio"]:checked+div:before {
    content: "\e013";
    margin-right: 5px;
    font-family: 'Glyphicons Halflings';
}

Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks.
