@joepavitt … I read your comment about using weather icons in this post: [Weather icons used in Dashboard 2.0](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/weather-icons-used-in-dashboard-2-0/86497)

Like the original poster, I am attempting to move my DBv1 flows over to DBv2; specifically, the ones which use Open Weather Map & its icons. I followed your instructions and attempted to use this in a DBv2 Text node:

```auto
<i :class="wi wi-owm-03d"></i>&nbsp;<i :class="fa fa-arrow-up"></i>&nbsp;&nbsp;8:00 am

```

Only the time was displayed, not the OWM icon. I am using OWM icons on the NR server in DBv1, so I know they are available. Am I formatting the string correctly, so the icon is inserted into the text?
