Using own entry icons with X - Renew Stack

[Jeckll]

Hi everyone.
I started using Wordpress and the X theme yesterday, so I might have searched in the wrong places but I couldn’t come up with a solution. I hope its okay to ask here.

I tried to include a own icon for a entry. The settings only allow to change the color of predefined icons as far as I can see.
I googled and found out how to change the icon in general

.format-standard .entry-title:before
{
content: “\f118”;
}

This works but with this way, I seem to be limited to the icon set provided by this site: http://fontawesome.io/cheatsheet/

Is it possible to upload a own icon or image and use this icon/image as entry icon for my website?
Lets say I want this entry icon: http://timelash-event.de/images/h1_hg.png

If you need further info, please let me know. I cant link my beta page as I’m working on xampp currently.
Thanks in advance

Hey there,

Yeah that’s fine to ask here - we’re here to help!

To achieve this, you would be using roughly the same custom CSS code, but instead of “\f118”; you will need to use url(“image.jpg”); like follows:

.format-standard .entry-title:before{
content: url("http://timelash-event.de/images/h1_hg.png");
}

I hope this helps
