hi – is it possible to upload new icons to the icon library? we have predesigned icons in very similar style which we want to use on the ‘tabs’ on a tabbed content style post but cannot see a way of uploading our own ones to be used for this?

Hello,

The best way to do it is to use https://icomoon.io/app/#/select and create your font file (*.svg) Then put it in the theme files in the icons section: http://screencast.com/t/LYy4BH4v1E and then use css to load the font using font-face like so:
@font-face {
font-family: 'Montserrat';
src: url('fonts/Montserrat-Light.otf') format("opentype");
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
}

Please note that the URL must be an absolute one so the path leads directly to your font file. You can test if the url is correct in your browser. When you access the url, the browser should download the font file.

I hope this helps.
Thank you!

Hey Bogdan,

will the font be available within the Icon library dropdown menu? Or how can I achieve that?

Thanks

Hello,

You can also load the font using the theme panel fosnts section. Upload it using this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/font-customization/

Thank you!

Hello,

yes, I already did that. But the fonts is not selectable within the icon library.

I am trying to add a custom icon via “Add icon next to section title”.

Is that possible?

If it is not possible via the icon library is there a workaround to add custom icons to section titles?

Thanks!

Hello,

The custom icons must be added in with css as there will not be a dropdown for you to select the icons. Please provide more information exactly where you want to add the icons.

Thank you!

Hi,

That is what I suspected 🙂 Those are visual composer elements and they will not pick up any of the theme icons. Visual composer elements have their own icon sets and I cannot provide any solution to change them as changing the plugin code will break our license agreement with the plugin authors.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you Bogdan,

I will ask the team of the vc, then.

Thanks.
