Overview
This SVG block allows you to display SVG images as inline HTML markup. You can either choose an icon from the icon library with more than 3000 icons or you can upload or input your custom SVG images directly in the block’s setting.
It also allows you to upload SVG images to the WordPress media library, and load them into the icon library. Only SVG files that have XML declaration at the top like <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> can be uploaded to the WordPress media library.
Key Features
- Accessibility ready with ‘img’ role, automatically generates title and description from settings.
- Automatically sanitize SVG markup to make it safe and lightweight.
- Include almost all settings to customize the SVG image.

Indispensable

Intégration parfaite du SVG : on peut modifier la couleur de ses icones, et on les retrouve dans la librairie média standard. Ce devrait être intégré dans WordPress. Tous les plugins de cet auteur sont excellents.

Best SVG Plugin

I have tested several SVG plugins, and this one seems to be the best of them all. Animations are even displayed directly in the block editor. It offers many customization options and optimal scaling. Top-notch!

This plugin adds some missing functionality that Gutenberg should have by default. It’s great. The developer is also very receptive and quick in adding features.
