Primefaces 5.2 - p:selectManyCheckbox rendering unnecessary icons

[nishadkahamed]

We have had this application for many years. But suddenly this issue cropped up. The checkboxes have these unwanted icons out of the blue. Not sure what went wrong. This issue appeared in all DEV/UAT/PROD environments, even without any recent deployments. So I am guessing something to do with CSS/FA Icons which is getting updated live. But I am not sure where to look/start.

Any solutions/suggestions highly appreciated



code snippet below :

Code: Select all

<ul class="list-group filterby">
                    <li class="list-group-item subtitle">By Metal</li>
                    <li class="list-group-item"><p:selectManyCheckbox
                            layout="grid" columns="1"
                            value="#{physicalProductBean.selectedCurrencyPair}"
                            valueChangeListener="#{physicalProductBean.selectedCurrencyChanged}">
                            <f:selectItems
                                value="#{physicalProductBean.availableCurrencyPairsProduct}"
                                var="eachCurrency" itemLabel="#{eachCurrency.symbol}"
                                itemValue="#{eachCurrency.id}" />
                            <p:ajax update=":physicalProductForm:productListing"></p:ajax>
                        </p:selectManyCheckbox></li>
                </ul>

please try a newer version
5.2 is 8 years old

Thank you. But we cannot upgrade just for this issue since this will affect a lot of other dependencies. This is already a finished product that is running in PROD past 7+ years. Only now has this issue occurred.

You didn't provide a runnable reproducer. So it's anyone's guess. Most likely you are loading FA resources from an external host. Try downgrading it to match the version your application was intended to work with.
