Some examples of images used as choices

Adding Icons to Your Choices

Similar to how you’d go about adding an image, open the Styles Pro: Icon / Image Selector for the option by clicking on the icon next to the option when editing the field. You should see all the icon sets you’ve enabled for your form; and a live search option on the top, which you can use to quickly find icons from icon names.

Once you’ve selected an iconĀ  for the choice, you may give it a unique color. This isn’t necessary, but can be useful to make the icon more distinguished. If no color is set, font color set in your theme settings will be inherited by the icon.

With the icon-sets included, there are over 2,000+ icons to choose from with many some of the most used icon-sets already included, like Font Awesome and Material Icons. It is also possible to use the Style Selector to add icons from other icon-sets than the ones included with Styles Pro. You can learn more about it here.

To remove an icon from the option, choose No Icon option (first option in all the icon sets.)

  1. I’m not seeing the select image or icon when I look at the style selector. My only options are “Placement” and Size”

    1. I’ve sent you new screenshots in reply to your ticket. Screenshots all over the website will be changed soon to be more precise with the GF 2.5 editor.

Have a thought? We're all ears!
