What Is Icon in Shopify?

Last updated on January 13, 2023 @ 4:41 am

An icon is a small graphical representation of a software program, file, or function. Icons are often used to represent common actions, such as opening a file or saving it. In Shopify, icons can be used to represent products, collections, pages, and blog posts.

When you add an icon to a product in Shopify, you can choose from a range of different icons that represent different product types. For example, there is an icon for physical products, digital products, and affiliate products. You can also add your own custom icons for products in Shopify.

To add an icon to a product:

    1. From your Shopify admin, go to Products > All products.

    2. Click the name of the product that you want to add an icon to.

    3. In the Product details section, click Edit product.

    4. Under Product image > Add image, click Select file to upload an image of the product from your computer. Alternatively, you can drag and drop an image into the Add image field. To use an existing image from your Shopify admin, click Library at the bottom of the dialog box and then click the image that you want to use. Images must be at least 1024×1024 pixels for products in Shopify.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to use Shopify to sell products online, be aware that the “icon” feature may not be available in all countries. In some cases, Shopify may only allow you to use the “icon” feature in certain countries, and you may not be able to use it in your home country. Additionally, the “icon” feature may not be available in all languages, so be sure to check with Shopify support before using this feature.

After you upload or select an image for your product, you can add an icon that represents the type of product that it is. To do this:

    1. In the Add product dialog box, click Icons under Product image > Add image.

    2. Click the icon that represents the type of product that you are adding.

    3. For example, if you are adding a physical product, click the Physical product icon.

    4. If you are adding a digital product, click the Digital product icon.

    5.If you are adding an affiliate product

    , click the Affiliate product icon.

    6.Click Save.

After you add an icon to a product in Shopify, it appears on theProduct page in your shop’s online storefront. Theicon helps customers identify what type of product they are viewing and makes it easy for them to find similar products in your shop.
