When I click the button it goes to my account page, and this icon appears

Is it possible to change the SVGs and where do they reside?
Thanks

Hi @GSS_Social 

Yes, you can change the SVG icons in your Shopify theme.

  1. Go to Online Store > Themes > Edit code.

  2. Look for icon files in the Snippets folder like icon-account.liquid or search for svg in the code.

  3. Replace the SVG code there or upload your custom SVG in Assets and update the reference.

  4. Header icon and account page icon can be in different files (e.g., header.liquid and customers/account.liquid).

I've changed the main account SVG that is on the homepage header bar, but this is different to the SVG for the account profile page.

Hi @GSS_Social 

You're absolutely right  the account icon on the homepage header and the one on the customer account/profile page are usually stored in different places.

Since you've already updated the header icon, now you'll want to locate the SVG used on the account/profile page.

Here’s what you can do:

  1. Go to Online Store > Themes > Edit Code

  2. Open or search for the template:
    customers/account.liquid or customers/login.liquid
    (depending on the page you're seeing the icon on)

  3. Look inside this file or any included snippets for an SVG code or a file like icon-account, icon-user, etc.

  4. If you find a snippet being included (e.g. {% render 'icon-account' %}), go to the Snippets folder and open that file.

  5. Replace the SVG there with your own or update it to point to your custom SVG in the Assets folder.

OK, I just checked the Dawn theme and there is not folder called customer. And there are no files called account.liquid or login.liquid, the only thing that is present is the icon-account.svg, which is the one I changed and appears on the homepage.
