About Easy Symbols & Icons

„Easy Symbols & Icons“ is a WordPress plugin for centralized, performance-oriented management of icon fonts. Instead of leaving each font in its own format, the plugin bundles all fonts in one place: icons are automatically extracted and scaled down to the actually used symbols via dynamic subsetting.

Ideal for developers, designers, and agencies looking for a scalable and efficient icon system in WordPress.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this plugin differ from other icon plugins?

„Easy Symbols & Icons“ focuses on performance and flexibility:

  • Uses icon fonts instead of SVG libraries or PNG files
  • Supports dynamic subsetting (only loads the icons actually being used)
  • Offers centralised font management
  • Works natively with the Gutenberg block editor and with shortcodes

Which font formats are supported?

Only TrueType (.ttf) and OpenType (.otf) fonts are supported.

What is dynamic font subsetting?

Only the icons used on the website are loaded, which reduces file size and improves performance.

Can I manage multiple icon fonts?

Yes. You can upload, enable, disable and organise multiple icon fonts all in one place.

Does this plugin support SVG icons?

No. This plugin focuses on icon fonts (webfonts) as a lightweight and scalable alternative.
