Anyone know how I can get my account icon back on mobile in the dawn theme?

Topic summary

Account icon missing on mobile in Shopify’s Dawn theme header; it still appears on desktop.

Proposed solutions:

  • Edit CSS files (theme.css/base.css) to force the account icon to display on mobile by adding a rule targeting .header__icons .header__icon–account with display set to inline and marked !important. A screenshot shows the icon reappearing after this change.
  • Alternatively, add a mobile-only CSS block in theme.liquid above using a media query for max-width: 767px. The shared snippet only shows the opening @media rule, so the exact CSS inside it wasn’t included. A screenshot indicates where to paste it.

Notes:

  • Dawn theme is Shopify’s default storefront theme; theme.liquid is the main layout file; a CSS media query applies styles for specific screen sizes (e.g., mobile).
  • Images are used to illustrate the expected result and code placement.

It’s visible on desktop but somehow went missing on mobile.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
