Icon Size Customization

2 min read

Icon Size Customization #

Control the display size of pet attribute icons, overlay icons, and label icons in both search and detail contexts. Available to Junior license and above.

Admin Settings #

Icon size controls are located in General > Display Options > Icon Sizes. Six dropdown fields are available, one per icon type and context:

Setting Context
Search Pet Icon Size Pet attribute icons in search results
Search Overlay Icon Size Photo overlay icons in search results
Search Label Icon Size Field label icons in search results
Detail Pet Icon Size Pet attribute icons on detail pages
Detail Overlay Icon Size Photo overlay icons on detail pages
Detail Label Icon Size Field label icons on detail pages

When a dropdown is left at Default, the template’s built-in CSS size is used. The other three options apply a fixed pixel size:

Option Pixel Size Effect
Default (none) Uses the template’s built-in size (no override)
Small 20px Smaller icons
Large 40px Larger icons
Extra Large 56px Largest icons

Shortcode Override #

The icon_size parameter overrides all icon sizes on that page. It accepts named presets or a numeric pixel value:

Named preset:

[pmp-search type="adopt" icon="enable" icon_size="large"]
[pmp-details icon="enable" icon_size="xl"]

Numeric pixel value:

[pmp-details icon="enable" icon_size="48"]

When using the shortcode parameter, all six icon types (pet, overlay, label in both search and detail) are set to the same value.

Priority Chain #

  1. Shortcode parameter icon_size (highest priority, per-page)
  2. Admin setting per icon type (site-wide default)
  3. Template default (built-in CSS value)

Template-Specific Sizes #

Some templates define their own icon sizes (e.g., the compact template uses smaller overlays). Admin and shortcode overrides take precedence over these template-specific values.

Next Steps #

  • Customizing Icon Display — Enable/disable and configure icons
  • Understanding Overlays — Overlay configuration and positioning
  • Font Size Customization — Control text element sizes
  • Color Customization — Customize icon and overlay colors
