Using the template

Bootstrap icons

Important!BlueSpice does not always include the latest version of bootstrap icons. See the list of currently supported icons.

1. Find a bootstrap icon from the Bootstrap website at https://icons.getbootstrap.com/Click on the icon you would like to use. The icon page shows you the class-name of the icon on the right side of the page:
   

   Bootstrap icon css-class
2. Highlight the class name (it has the format bi bi-myicon) and copy it to your clipboard (ctrl+c).
3. Go back to your wiki page.
4. Enter {{ in visual editing mode at the cursor position where you want to insert the icon. The template editor opens.
5. Copy the icon class from your clipboard:
   

   Template editor
6. Change the font size (optional) if you want the size to be different from the text surrounding it (e.g., from the size of a heading if the icon is placed in the heading or of the paragraph text if the icon is placed in the flow-text. Smaller than text icons are usually sized no smaller than 0.85em and larger icons up to 2.5em.
7. Color: If you want the color to be different from the surrounding text, you can specify any web color (e.g., a color name like blue or a hex-valuesuch as #0059b3 for a more specific blue). A list of web colors can be found at https://www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_picker.asp
8. Vertical alignment: It should not be necessary to provide an alignment value. The standard is set to text-top and usually works in headings and in flow-text. If it looks a little off, you can try other vertical-alignment values, such as text-bottom. For a full list of possible values, see https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_pos_vertical-align.asp.
9. Click Apply changes.

The icon is now displayed on the page.
