You can add icons in Shopify by following these steps:

  1. Choose the icon you want to use: There are various websites and platforms where you can find free or paid icon sets like Flaticon, FontAwesome, or Iconfinder. Browse through the available options and select the icon you want to use on your Shopify store.
  2. Download the icon: Once you have found the desired icon, download the icon file or save it to your computer. Icons are usually available in different file formats such as SVG, PNG, or ICO.
  3. Upload the icon to your Shopify store: Log in to your Shopify admin panel and navigate to "Online Store" > "Themes." Find the current theme you're using and click the "Actions" dropdown, and then select "Edit code."
  4. Locate the HTML or Liquid file where you want to add the icon: Depending on where you want to place the icon on your Shopify store (e.g., header, footer, product page), find the appropriate HTML or Liquid file. For example, if you want to add an icon to your header, locate the header.liquid file.
  5. Insert the icon code: Open the HTML or Liquid file and insert the HTML code or Liquid code for your chosen icon. If you're using an SVG icon, you can directly embed the SVG code. If you're using a PNG icon, you can use an HTML tag and specify the URL location of the PNG file.
  6. Customize the icon: You may need to modify the icon code or add CSS styles to adjust the size, color, or position of the icon. Shopify's Theme Editor allows you to modify the styles and appearance of your icons using CSS.
  7. Save and preview your changes: After adding and customizing the icon, save the changes in the theme editor. Then, preview your Shopify store to see how the icon appears on the frontend. Make further adjustments if necessary.


By following these steps, you can successfully add icons to your Shopify store and enhance its visual appeal.
