Enhance ACF with GS ACF Icons Plugin
The GS ACF Icons plugin is designed for WordPress users who utilize the Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) framework. It introduces a new field that allows users to select icons from a convenient popup interface. This functionality extends to ACF Repeater fields, making it easier to manage multiple icon selections within custom fields. The plugin supports both font-based icons and scalable vector graphics (SVG), providing flexibility in icon usage. Users can choose how the selected icon is returned, with options including CSS class, SVG URL fragment, SVG file path, or raw SVG markup.
Currently, the plugin does not allow for limiting icon choices or adding new icon providers beyond the existing options. The supported icon libraries include Font Awesome 5 Free, Ionicons, and Elementor Icons. For those using ACF functions with the CSS class return format, it is necessary to enqueue the appropriate CSS. The GS ACF Icons plugin is a free tool that enhances the customization capabilities of ACF in WordPress.
