Support For Icomoon with Advanced Custom Fields

50 Quality Score

Active Installs

14/30

Around 1,000 active installs is modest but reasonable for a niche extension that only applies to users of both IcoMoon and ACF, so popularity lands a touch above neutral rather than weak.

Update Freshness

15/25

Last updated on 2025-08-20 and tested against WordPress 6.8.5, the plugin has clear recent activity and a current compatibility range, which is a strong maintenance signal.

User Rating

3/15

A perfect 100 from a single rating is too thin a sample to mean much in practice, so the score reflects low confidence rather than proven quality.

Support Health

8/15

With zero support threads opened or resolved, there is simply no evidence yet of how the developer responds to issues, leaving support health effectively unproven.

WP Compatibility

11/15

It requires PHP 7.2 and WordPress 6.8.2, which is modern but slightly restrictive for older stacks, and being a small ACF add-on limits the surface area where conflicts can occur.

What It Does

This plugin adds a custom field type to Advanced Custom Fields that lets you choose an icon from a selection.json file exported by the Icomoon app. In practice, designers who assemble custom icon sets in Icomoon can drop the JSON file into the plugin and get an ACF field that renders those icons in the WordPress admin and on the front end. It is a thin bridge between Icomoon icon packs and ACF-powered themes.

Who It's For

This is built for designers, agencies, and front-end developers who already use Advanced Custom Fields and IcoMoon to manage a custom icon library. It fits teams running design systems or brand-heavy sites who need content editors to pick from a curated icon set rather than a generic font. Marketing agencies, branding consultancies, and SaaS product teams with bespoke iconography will get the most out of it.

Who Should Skip It

Anyone who does not already use both IcoMoon and ACF should skip this, as the plugin does nothing useful on its own. Sites using a generic icon font like Font Awesome or Material Icons should use a more general ACF field add-on instead. Hobby bloggers or single-developer projects working with only a handful of icons will likely find the setup overhead larger than the benefit.

The Bottom Line

With an overall quality score of 53.42/100, this is a narrowly useful plugin that does one specific job, and nothing in the data suggests it is risky or broken. The lack of ratings, reviews, and support threads means you are betting on a small developer without much public track record. If you use both IcoMoon and ACF, it is worth testing on a staging site, but most teams will be better served by ACF Extended or the Font Awesome field unless custom IcoMoon output is a hard requirement.

Related Plugins

Advanced Custom Fields (ACF®) 94/100

Pick ACF itself instead, as this plugin only functions when ACF is already installed, and ACF's broader field toolkit covers far more than icons.

Advanced Custom Fields: Font Awesome Field 84/100

Choose the Font Awesome field if your icon set comes from Font Awesome rather than IcoMoon, since it ships with a 2,000+ icon library out of the box.

Advanced Custom Fields: Extended 84/100

Use ACF Extended when you want a single plugin with many field types, blocks, and options pages beyond just an icon picker.

Table Field Add-on for ACF and SCF 83/100

This table field is a better match if your gap is structured tabular data inside ACF rather than icon selection.

ACF: Better Search 83/100

Pick the Better Search add-on if your real need is faster, more relevant search across ACF fields rather than front-end icon control.
