The icon shortcode displays icons in your text.

The theme uses the Font Awesome library, allowing you to easily display any icon or logo available in the Font Awesome free collection.

{{% icon exclamation-triangle %}} {{% icon angle-double-up %}} {{% icon skull-crossbones %}}

Usage

While the examples are using shortcodes with positional parameter you are free to also call this shortcode from your own partials.

{{< tabs groupId="shortcode-parameter">}} {{% tab name="shortcode" %}}

{{%/* icon icon="exclamation-triangle" */%}}
{{%/* icon icon="angle-double-up" */%}}
{{%/* icon icon="skull-crossbones" */%}}

{{% /tab %}} {{% tab name="shortcode (positional)" %}}

{{%/* icon exclamation-triangle */%}}
{{%/* icon angle-double-up */%}}
{{%/* icon skull-crossbones */%}}

{{% /tab %}} {{% tab name="partial" %}}

{{ partial "shortcodes/icon.html" (dict
    "context" .
    "icon" "exclamation-triangle"
)}}
{{ partial "shortcodes/icon.html" (dict
    "context" .
    "icon" "angle-double-up"
)}}
{{ partial "shortcodes/icon.html" (dict
    "context" .
    "icon" "skull-crossbones"
)}}

{{% /tab %}} {{< /tabs >}}

Parameter

Name Position Default Notes
icon 1 <empty> [Font Awesome icon name]({{%relref "#finding-an-icon" %}}) to be displayed. It will be displayed in the text color of its according context.

Finding an icon

Browse through the available icons in the Font Awesome Gallery. Notice that the free filter is enabled, as only the free icons are available by default.

Once on the Font Awesome page for a specific icon, for example the page for the heart, copy the icon name and paste into the Markdown content.

Customising Icons

Font Awesome provides many ways to modify the icon

  • Change color (by default the icon will inherit the parent color)
  • Increase or decrease size
  • Rotate
  • Combine with other icons

Advanced HTML Usage

While the shortcode simplyfies using standard icons, the icon customisation and other advanced features of the Font Awesome library requires you to use HTML directly. Just paste the <i> HTML into markup and Font Awesome will load the relevant icon.
