About Icon Box Block

Icon Box is a straightforward block for the Gutenberg editor that lets you place a stylish icon with text inside a fully customizable box.

🤝 See Demos 🤝

Ever find yourself wanting a simple, clean way to showcase features or services on your site? The Icon Box block is just for that. It’s a straightforward block for the Gutenberg editor that lets you pair a stylish icon inside a fully customizable box.

Our goal was to make it incredibly flexible without overwhelming users with options. You can build beautiful, professional-looking sections with the Icon Box that fit your site’s look and feel perfectly.

The Icon Box plugin is for:

  • Showcasing Your Core Services: Instead of a boring bulleted list, you can create a visually engaging grid of your company’s services, each with a relevant icon, making it easier for customers to understand what you do at a glance.

  • Highlighting Key Product Features: On a sales or product page, use icon boxes to break down features (e.g., “Long Battery Life” with a battery icon, “Encrypted” with a shield icon) to make them easily scannable and digestible for potential buyers.

  • Creating a “Why Choose Us?” Section: Quickly communicate your main value propositions. Pair an icon with a benefit like “24/7 Support,” “Free Shipping,” or “Expert Team” to build trust and convince visitors.

  • Illustrating a Step-by-Step Process: Visually guide users through a process, such as a “How it Works” section. For example: (1) Sign Up, (2) Create Your Profile, (3) Go Live! Each step is clearer with its own icon.

  • Making Contact Information More Engaging: Organize your phone number, email, and physical address into clean, separate boxes, each with a recognizable icon. It’s much more user-friendly than a simple line of text.

  • Summarizing Key Takeaways in an Article: Break up long blog posts or articles by using icon boxes to summarize the main points or benefits, helping to improve reader engagement and information retention.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this block slow down my website?

I hate slow websites, so I built this block with performance as a top priority. It’s incredibly lightweight. It’s only load the selected icon as svg, it’s not load the icon library. So no, it won’t bog down your site.

How does this work with my theme or a page builder like Elementor/Divi?

This is a native Gutenberg block, so it’s designed to work perfectly with the standard WordPress editor and any theme that supports it. However, you can use Blocks to Shortcode plugin to work any blocks anywhere.

Is this plugin compatible with my current theme?

This plugin is compatible with the majority of themes. However, if you encounter any issues, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. Our support team is here to assist you in resolving any compatibility concerns.

How can I customize the appearance of the plugin?

After adding the block, you’ll see the appearance of a right sidebar that allows you to customize the selected block.
