How can I add a custom icon beyond the limited set offered natively for different CPTs to shop up to the left of the name in the admin menu?

Thanks.

Hey there,

Thank you for contacting our support.

As of now, in order to use custom icons you need to do it with some custom code. Please check this example:

add_filter( 'wpcf_type', 'toolset_add_custom_icon', 10, 2 );
 
function toolset_add_custom_icon( $params, $post_type ) {
 
    // adjust to your needs
    $cpt_slug   = 'toolset-post-type';
 
     
    if( $post_type != $cpt_slug ) {
        return $params;
    }
 
  $params['menu_icon']='any_image_url'; 
 
    return $params;
 
}

Please see some threads where this was done so you can base on to make your own code:

Currently, there's no estimate on this feature to be added to the GUI.

Feel free to reply back here if you need further assistance and I'll be happy to help.

Ok thanks.
I ended up doing it with the third party plugin "Admin Editor Pro" which makes it really easy.

Thanks.
