## Description

Adds an **Inline icon** format to the block editor toolbar. It works anywhere Rich
Text allows formats (paragraphs, headings, buttons, lists, and more).

Icons come from the WordPress Icons API (the same library as the `core/icon` block),
including collections registered by themes and plugins via `wp_register_icon()`.
An optional Phosphor icon collection ships with the plugin and can be disabled from
Settings or via a filter.

The format stores an icon name. On the front end, WordPress renders the SVG with`
wp_get_icon()` so the icon inherits the surrounding text color.

#### Features

 * Inline icon Rich Text format in the block editor toolbar
 * Works in paragraphs, headings, buttons, and other Rich Text fields
 * Uses the WordPress Icons API (`wp_get_icon`, `wp_register_icon`)
 * Ships with a Phosphor icon collection under icon-collections/
 * Toggle built-in collections via Settings or a filter
 * Front-end SVG rendering that inherits text color
 * Accessible labels via alt / aria-label (empty means decorative)

### Credits

This plugin ships SVG icons from [Phosphor Icons](https://phosphoricons.com), distributed
via the [`@phosphor-icons/core`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@phosphor-icons/core)
package.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/mosne-button-icons` directory,
    or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
 3. In the block editor, place the cursor in Rich Text and choose Inline icon from 
    the format toolbar.

## FAQ

### Which WordPress version do I need?

WordPress 7.1 or later is required because the plugin relies on the Icons API.

### Can I use icons from other collections?

Yes. Any collection registered with `wp_register_icon()` / `wp_register_icon_collection()`
is available in the picker.

### How do I disable a built-in collection?

Go to Settings  Mosne Button Icons and uncheck the collection, or use the `mosne_button_icons_collection_enabled`
filter in code. Collections are enabled by default.

### How do icons look on the front end?

Placeholders are replaced with SVG markup from `wp_get_icon()`, so icons inherit
the surrounding text color.
