Description (last modified by )
This is a follow-up to #29444, which ended with @liljimmi listing an inventory of old and new unfulfilled requests for the next ticket:
- "Sticky" icon for posts
- "Move" icon
- Email (using the @ sign)
- Automattic products mini-logos
- LinkedIn and other missing social network icons
- Exclamation mark icon
- Icons for different currencies. Such as $, €, £ etc.
- A loading icon to replace the current gif loading icon (still in debate)
- A table icon for TinyMCE and a dashicon variant for each icon in the TinyMCE icon font.
- A filter icon
- An animal icon (for zoo websites, pet shops, etc.)
- Icon for WordPress Multisite
- Icons to represent CSS ( e.g. {} ) and shortcodes e.g. [] )
- PDF icon
- A page icon that wasn't filled/solid like the Dashicons '\f498' is (something like Noticons '\f443').
- A paperclip
- A light bulb with rays to indicate it's on (this would complement Dashicons '\f339')
Can we divvy these up? I've already made sticky posts. Anyone care to jump in on the others?
Also, what's the flow going to be for submitting new dashicons? We've discussed moving toward SVG sprite, for 4.2. This will hopefully make it easier to submit and discuss new icons.

I had a couple other icons in the last thread which didn't make it into 4.1 (image filter, warning, table, filter, and sticky post). They could use another set of eyes for consistency and style. I'll reattach them here.
For now, let's hold off on making more new icons until we've had a chance to meet and discuss the plans outlined here: https://make.wordpress.org/design/2015/01/04/the-future-of-dashicons/

- Version set to 4.1
There's a dashicon named "visibility", that is an eye. It would be great if there was a dashicon that was something like an eye with a line through it, or a closed eye, or something to imply "hidden" or "not visible".

Please could you add the aircraft icon as it would work perfectly for the aircraft for sale custom post type I am working on.

Suggestion from https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/design/p1431196199000010: Warning
Once we restart Dashicons meetings next week, we can make a better plan for tackling new icons this cycle. In the meantime, I'm switching this ticket to be for 4.3, since we never got around to it for 4.2.

Added "Hidden" icon: dashicons-hidden.ai.
Preview added in dashicons-hidden-preview.png.

dashicons-thumbs.ai contains thumbs up and thumbs down. The icons are adapted from Open Iconic (https://useiconic.com/open/), licensed under the MIT License. I've tweaked the icon sizing and adjusted the points to adapt to Dashicon's 20px grid. Preview in dashicons-thumbs-preview.jpg

There's a couple in here that could likely make it in for this cycle. I'll check in with @empireoflight.

Last night we started working on a Customizer icon for #32678 (https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/design/p1434596260000082). That could use some more eyes, and ideas.
An open lock based on the lock Dashicon could also be good to get in this cycle, since we have the base to work from.
At the end of the cycle, let's audit the list of icons and prune out the ones we don't think are appropriate.

Sounds good, we can figure which ones to prune at one of our Slack meetings.
I can work on the lock :-)

Sorry I haven't been much help on these; let me know what the final vector files are ready and I'll update the font.

See #32733 and 32734.
I think a dashicons-plus-alt needs to exist which has the same thickness as dashicons-no-alt.

@melchoyce, any news? If there is no need for new icons in 4.3, we can just reassign to 4.4.

Based on our chat today (https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/design-dashicons/p1435257113000004), we've decided to add these icons for 4.3:
- https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/30902/dashicons-new_11-10-14.ai
- https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/30902/dashicons-rotate.ai
- https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/30902/dashicons-hidden.ai
- https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/30902/dashicons-thumbs.ai
- https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/30902/dashicons-unlocked.ai
- The icon from #32678
- The updated + icon @empireoflight mentioned previously, can't remember which ticket
@empireoflight, could you add these icons to the font before 4.3 beta 1, and maybe take a look at smoothing a couple of them out before they go in? In particular, I'm unsure about the ones I made in dashicons-new_11-10-14.ai and dashicons-thumbs.ai

https://github.com/melchoyce/dashicons is updated. There are 2 image filter icons. @melchoyce design was losing clarity at actual size, so I did one with three separate circles. I only previewed them in photoshop so the best way to compare them would be actually loading them into the admin. Where will this appear so we can see it in context?

Latest version of Dashicons. Please review and make sure we don't need to add/delete any.

Also, can the thumbs-up be flipped w/CSS for thumbs-down, or do we also need a thumbs-down icon?

CSS transform wont work in IE < 9. Is that a concern?

It feels like enough of a concern, IMO.

Seeing a typo in the patch:
.dashicons-layout:before { content: "\ff538"; }
The second "f" should be removed.
Do you know if .dashicons-exerpt-view:before, /* Misspelled. Use .dashicons-excerpt-view instead. */
was intentionally removed? We should ideally deprecate that eventually, but I figured we'd do that kind of cleanup when we move over to SVG.
.dashicons-admin-filter
should probably just be .dashicons-filter
since it's not specifically going into the admin menu.
Likewise, .dashicons-lock-unlock
should probably just be .dashicons-unlock
.
Sorry, should have caught these earlier. Do you want me to edit your patch, or do you have time to revisit it today? I don't want to take up too much of your time.

I'll make a new patch now.
Do you know if
.dashicons-exerpt-view:before, /* Misspelled. Use .dashicons-excerpt-view instead. */
was intentionally removed?
I think that may have been in trunk, but not in Git?
I'll add that back.

Yeah, nothing really ever moves back to the Github repo from trunk. We should probably just shut it down now that we're using https://developer.wordpress.org/resource/dashicons/ for the demo.

If you guys ever need new icons, we, Icons8, are willing to donate or draw the new ones.
From what I see here, our Material icon pack would work great, providing the missing icons (such as Print) or improving some of the icons like this:
