Use custom icons

[rustic rapids]

I downloaded these icons https://www.cinnamon-look.org/p/1493433

How can i now set and use them?

Heard of .icons?

Go into home folder, CTRL + H, then create a .icons, extract the icon zip folder

And then put the extracted folder in there, then later Themes, after that advanced theming

And choose it from the icons

[rustic rapids]

I extracted it in the .icon folder

but nothing had changed

[uncut relic]

.icons

[rustic rapids]

yeah

still does not work

[uncut relic]

Well shit

What is the system you are using?

[rustic rapids]

Linux Mint latest

[uncut relic]

The icons you are using are made for KDE

As its based on Breeze

[fiery charm]

those icons are for plasma, not cinnamon

that's why it doesn't work

[rustic rapids]

bruh

[fiery charm]

im new to linux, but why are plasma (kde) stuff uploaded on a website called "cinnamon look" which would indicate that the focus is on the cinnamon DE?

this is where the confusion originates from

[fiery charm]

Probably the one posting it at fault

[drifting crest]

icons are icons for linux. it should work regardless

Damian, gp tp Themes, click Advanced button, then click the icons category
