Plugin Description

Easily add an icon using the [icon] shortcode.

Description

Easily add an icon to a post, page or other post type using the [icon] shortcode.

For example, to display the note icon, shortcode usage is [icon id="note"] (the shorthand [icon=note] is also supported); 1,001 icons from the famfamfam Silk collection are included, as PNGs.

A width attribute can be used to override the default width for that icon, e.g. [icon id="note" width="24px"]; if not specified, width defaults to a value configured separately for PNG and SVG icons on the Settings tab. A border attribute is also supported, e.g. [icon id="note" border="1px solid black"].

Custom icons can be added, as PNG or SVG; if a custom icon has the same name as a standard icon, the custom icon will be used. If both a PNG and an SVG custom icon share the same name, the SVG will be used.

Shortcodes In Comments can be used to allow flags in comments and Shortcodes In Widgets can allow them in widgets.

This plugin is multisite compatible.

Changelog

Version 2.2.2

  • Update plugin list.

Version 2.2.1

  • Update plugin list.

Version 2.2.0

  • Security: custom icon SVG uploads are now sanitised before being saved (previously SVG uploads were not supported at all).
  • Fix: custom icon upload was completely broken (a malformed move_uploaded_file/wp_unslash call caused a fatal error on every upload attempt).
  • Fix: uploaded image height was never actually validated (an index bug meant the height check silently re-checked width instead).
  • Fix: shortcode rendering no longer makes a live HTTP request to check whether an icon exists on every page load; it now checks the local filesystem, matching the Flags plugin.
  • Fix: uninstall.php referenced an undefined constant, so plugin options were never removed on uninstall; uninstall is now also multisite-aware.
  • Fix: prevent direct access to plugin include files that were missing the standard guard.
  • Fix: sanitise the shortcode id attribute to prevent path traversal when resolving an icon’s file.
  • Fix: remove unused/unrelated jQuery admin script; update the shared admin tab script to the current version.
  • New: custom icons can now be uploaded as SVG as well as PNG; the standard icon set can support SVGs in future without further code changes.
  • New: shortcode now supports id, width, and border attributes, matching the Flags plugin. Default width can be set separately for PNG and SVG icons.
  • New: Available Icons tab redesigned as a responsive grid (each icon capped at 48×48, never enlarged past its natural size) with a live filter and click-to-copy of the shortcode.
  • Update: settings save and image upload unified into a single handler (previously two separate forms/nonces/hooks), matching the Flags plugin.
  • Update: Requires PHP raised to 8.2 (7.4 is end-of-life).
  • Update: internal code brought in line with the current azurecurve plugin pattern (constants, guards, admin JS, naming, code style).
