    Is there any way to add a custom icon to a button, instead of using one already in the icon options?

    Hey arch2030,

    Could you please attach a mockup of what you’re trying to achieve?

    Best regards,

    Hi Victoria – thanks for the reply!

    My site’s in a dev environment right now, but I’ll add a link below. Essentially, I’d like to be able to upload custom icons to be used with the buttons but I’m not finding a solution on how to do that. On this page, I’d like the “Big Buildings” icon to be different than the one I found (currently being used) but there are no good options in the icon list. Ideally, I’d like to upload my own icon design.

    Best,
    Lindsay

    Hi,
    Please try going to Enfold Theme Options > Import/Export > Iconfont Manager and follow the link next to it for the Fontello website Then download the icons you like and install them with the Iconfont Manager.
    They will then show in the icon list and you can use them.
    Please read more about it here.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Thanks, I had read about that solution before. I found a few icons that way but when I try to change the icon in the Button, those don’t appear as options still (just displaying Font: entypo-fontello, not the icon zip I added – Font: fontello). Why is that?

    My question was about creating my own icons. Is there no way to create and upload icons that I have created?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    At the top of the Fontello website is the option to upload icons that you have created, the site will then create the correct font file and package it in the correct format for the theme.

    Thanks, but the issue I’m running into is on the wordpress side. I created the zip file, uploaded it to the site (via imports/exports) and it shows as a font under imports/exports. However, when I go to add one of those icons to a button, they don’t show up. Any ideas?

    Best,

    Hi,
    I see, so you did create the zip file with the Fontello website?
    Please link to your zip file via dropbox or Google Drive, in the Private Content area, I would like to examine and test it on my localhost.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Hi,
    Thanks, I was able to import the icon file and use the icons, even in a button:
    2019-02-04-175900
    2019-02-04-180212
    Please include a admin login in the private content area so we can see why it’s not working on your site.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    I tried deleting the zip file and re-uploading, now that the website it live and no longer in a dev environment, and it seems to be working. I’m not sure why, but thanks for your help!
