Can’t skip cropping on SVG site icon

  • Hello, apologies if this has been covered already, but none of the solutions around the web seem to work for me. Title explains it really: I have a site icon I would like to upload in svg format. I have no problem uploading it in png. I am able to upload other svg’s and “skip cropping”, but not for the site icon.

    I have svg support plugin installed so no problem there.

    I have php v.7.4.30 and php-gd is already newest version according to apt-get

    I’m running on apache2 server on localhost at the moment (in testing).

    Any suggestions?

    PS, my base theme (although much modified) is quite old so maybe I need something in my functions.php that isn’t covered by the ‘svg support’ plugin?

    Hi there! It sound like you want to eliminate portions of your SVG image.

    Unfortunately, SVG is not a bitmap image, like JPG/GIF/etc. It is a vector map with all shapes determined by code.

    I would recommend using a graphics program if you wish to modify an SVG, or an online editor like this:
