green icon was embed using HTML coding.
If you cannot see the blue or the green icon, then that means that one or both types of these scripts have been turned off. In order to turn it back on you must log in and go to the profile tab at the top menu. In the preferences there should be an option to turn these two features on. Please make sure you save before leaving the profile menu.
