How can I add a different Google Material icon to the CMS in Webflow?
To add a different Google Material icon to the CMS in Webflow, you can follow these steps:
Find the Google Material icon you want to use: Go to the Google Material Design Icons website (https://material.io/resources/icons/) and browse through the available icons. Once you find the one you want to use, make a note of its name or copy the SVG code.
Add a new field to your CMS collection: In your Webflow project, go to the CMS Collections panel and open the collection you want to add the icon to. Click on the "+" button to add a new field to the collection.
Choose the right field type: Select the appropriate field type for your icon. If the icon is a single character, you can use the Text or Rich Text field type. If the icon is an SVG code, choose the Embed field type.
Add the icon to your CMS entries: When you add or edit an entry in your CMS collection, you will now see the new field where you can add the icon. Enter the icon's name or paste the SVG code into the field.
Display the icon in your Webflow project: To display the icon in your design, you can use the Field element in the Webflow Designer. Drag and drop a Field element onto your page, and select the corresponding CMS collection and field. Customize the styling of the Field element to match your design.
Apply the Material icon font: By default, Webflow uses the Material Icons font to render Google Material icons. Make sure you have included this font in your project's font settings. You can find the font settings under the Project Settings tab in the Webflow Designer. If you haven't added the Material Icons font yet, click on the "+" button next to the Fonts section and search for "Material Icons" in the Google Fonts list. Once added, the font will be available for use.
By following these steps, you can add a different Google Material icon to the CMS in Webflow and display it in your design using the Field element.
