Adding Icons to Articles
Pro tip: Fancy using your own icon? On our latest templates (and custom ones) you can upload your own icon. We recommend using an SVG or an image around 100px by 100px.
- Head to the editor page for the article you'd like to add an icon to
- In the ⋮ menu in the top navigation, choose Edit slug, tags, etc.
- Under Icon choose Set Icon
- Choose your icon
- You can pick from the Icon dropdown menu
- ...or click the upload icon to add a custom icon
- Hit Apply changes and close
You'll also want to Save and Publish changes in the article editor before your icon will appear
