Use color and icon helpers
Color helpers
| Helper | Public purpose |
|---|---|
pom_get_custom_color_from_theme_options( $value ) |
Resolve a palette number; pass through a valid hex color or non-numeric custom value |
pom_get_color_palette_array() |
Return the current numbered palette as entries containing hex |
pom_color_convert( $operation, $value, $alpha = 1 ) |
Convert supported color representations |
pom_hex_color_mod( string $hex, int $diff ) |
Lighten or darken a hexadecimal color by the supplied difference |
Example:
$accent = pom_get_custom_color_from_theme_options( 3 );
if ( '' !== $accent ) {
printf(
'<span class="integration-label" style="--integration-accent:%s">%s</span>',
esc_attr( $accent ),
esc_html__( 'Featured', 'my-plugin' )
);
}Do not assume a palette always contains 15 user-defined values or embed the returned value into raw CSS without validation/escaping.
Icon code
POM identifies an icon as library/name, for example feather/arrow-right.
| Helper | Result |
|---|---|
pom_normalize_icon_code_from_picker( $value ) |
Convert a picker URL or slug into the normalized code |
pom_normalize_svg_icon_code( $code ) |
Validate and normalize library/name |
pom_get_icon( $code, $with_i_tag = false ) |
Return the resolved inline SVG, optionally wrapped in POM's icon <i> |
pom_get_svg_symbol_icon( $code, $with_i_tag = true ) |
Use the shared frontend SVG sprite where safe, with inline fallback for AJAX/REST/admin contexts |
pom_get_icon_svg_markup( $code ) |
Return raw resolved SVG markup for a trusted renderer |
pom_get_icons_libraries() |
Return libraries available to selectors |
pom_get_icons_dir( $library ) |
Resolve the library paths used by POM |
Preferred rendering:
if ( function_exists( 'pom_get_svg_symbol_icon' ) ) {
echo pom_get_svg_symbol_icon( 'feather/arrow-right' ); // Trusted POM-rendered SVG.
}Treat icon markup as trusted renderer output; do not concatenate untrusted attributes into it. Provide adjacent readable text or an accessible name when the icon conveys meaning. Decorative icons should remain hidden from assistive technology.
