Agree to the previous reviews. Awesomeliy simple, install, choose icons, you’re 
done – you don’t even have click a save button because it’s all AJAX I guess.

### 󠀁[Problem solved; world saved!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-solved-world-saved/)󠁿

 [Robert Gadon](https://profiles.wordpress.org/yogaman5020/) September 3, 2016

I installed a custom post type plugin (‘Easy Content Types’ from Pippin’s Plugins),
which prompted for an icon or SVG file upload for the CPT admin menu. Since WP 3.8
+ comes bundled with ‘dashicons’ (vector graphic icons), I wanted to use those instead.
Pippin couldn’t provide an alternative to a file upload, so I used this PI. Worked
right out of of the box. Huzzah! Frustration averted. World Saved! 😉
