    Do you have the all of that data already output on your page? If so, you can add classes in the HTML markup, add the relevant image icons inside the Child Theme folder and then write CSS that pulls those icons in for each class.

    If you haven’t got that data yet, you still need to do the above but you also need to decide how you want to manage that data first in the CMS. Then output it onto your template.

    Which stage are you at?

    I have nothing, I do not know how to do it. 🙁

    I’m afraid this’ll take about 3 hours work, which might not be an issue for you but it’s a lot of time for a volunteer to dedicate (as we’re helping out of our spare time).

    Hopefully someone has enough time to support you, otherwise you have to hire someone. When it comes to that, please try https://jobs.wordpress.net/ or https://jetpack.pro/ and do not accept any hire offers posted to these forums.

    That’s a pity but I understand you. :/

    Here’s a brief outline of what’s necessary:

    1. Decide on how you want to manage the data
    2. Install a relevant plugin for managing that data, such as a custom post types plugin
    3. Add the functionality to manage the data through the relevant plugin
    4. Working in your Child Theme, edit the ‘template’ file that you want the data to be output at
    5. Using the plugin’s documentation, output the data onto the template
    6. Add relevant classes to the output so that you can target individual elements for styling later
    7. Find the images you want to use for the icons; make sure you have permission to use them
    8. Put those images inside the Child Theme
    9. In the Child Theme style.css file add some CSS that targets the classes (added to the template) and adds CSS background images to them (pointing to the new images you put in the Child Theme)
