ZomZom Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 (edited) When I try to add my .svg file as an image block I get an error message that only images are allowed. How can I add a .svg? Edited July 11, 2016 by acalvo retag Link to comment
Nick Scola Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Not 100% sure if it will work, but why not convert the svg to png?

Solution avsmithy Posted November 2, 2012 Solution Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) No. However you can upload the SVG code into a code block. Open the SVG in a text editor and copy everything from <svg... to </svg> (inclusive). Edited November 2, 2012 by Alex alvinroypak, raymorin and WarwickJones 3 Link to comment

SteveCrow Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) I just wanted to comment that this worked very well for me....thanks! BTW, have you tried it copying ALL the code of the SVG? For me it was just one extra line at the very top but I've never tried it myself That line of code was <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> Edited August 1, 2016 by SteveCrow Initial Revision Link to comment

This method worked for me, I've wasted the past 3 hours trying to convert my SVGs into font families and found out SquareSpace doesn't allow users to upload .svgs If you're looking to use custom .svg icons made from illustrator (after image tracing), just right click your .svg file and "open with >" the notepad. After that, just simply copy and paste the entire <svg> text from the notepad and paste it into a code block or markdown block. The <svg> text allows you to control the width and height of the svg image itself. Link to comment
