Have you ever wanted to spice up your blog by implementing something that many other blogs don’t have? Well now you can. Here are step-by-step instructions on how to add an icon to your menu items within your WP theme. This is a great little function that will add visibility and style to your blog.
Let’s discuss adding icons to menu items using WP’s standard TwentyTen theme as an example.This is the default theme that WordPress provides you with when you start a new blog, so we wanted to use this theme as our main example.
In more of the themes, the main menu is offered in several types: Mega Drop-down, Classic Drop-down, Inline Drop-down and sometimes, Static Inline Drop-down. All of these menu types are quite complex and are built by user through standard WordPress Menu interface under the Appearance link of the WP admin panel.1
TheThe Fly themes works well with several pre-designed menus.
So, once your theme has been activated, start building your menu at the WP Appearance/Menus screen and attach it to the Main Menu menu position as shown in the screenshot below.
