External Link Icon for Gutenberg adds a new Gutenberg block called Link with Icon.
Each block contains its own link URL, link text, icon choice, and display options — all configured in one place. There are no global settings that affect your whole site.
How to use:
<ol>
<li>In the block editor, click the + button to add a block</li>
<li>Search for “Link with Icon”</li>
<li>Insert the block</li>
<li>Enter your URL in the on-canvas URL field and click Add Link</li>
<li>Open the block sidebar (right panel) to:
<ul>
<li>Set link text</li>
<li>Toggle new tab / nofollow</li>
<li>Pick an icon from the Dashicons or SVG Icons tab</li>
<li>Set icon position (before or after text)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>The live preview updates as you make changes</li>
</ol>
Icon sets:
<ul>
<li>Dashicons — WordPress built-in icon font (32 icons, no extra network request)</li>
<li>SVG Icons — 32 bundled stroke-based SVG icons, rendered inline (no CDN, no webfont)</li>
</ul>
Principles:
<ul>
<li>No global icon settings — each block is fully independent</li>
<li>Image links are not affected (this is a dedicated block, not a link filter)</li>
<li>Server-side PHP rendering — compatible with all caching plugins</li>
<li>No jQuery required</li>
</ul>
