It says

Adding custom icons is now supported, as of this commit:
When adding a header link in the theme setting, paste in a url to an icon and it should be present in the header.

Hi @danielabc
You simply need to navigate to your components in /admin/customize/themes, find the Icon Header Links component. If it’s not on the latest update, you should see a button to update.
