Dashicons is the official icon font of the WordPress admin as of 3.8. Some of you have requested that we add a feature to remove Dashicons. Some themes and developers utilize this (dashicons.min.css
) on the front-end of their sites.
Remove Dashicons
Follow the steps below to remove Dashicons.
Step 1
Click into the Perfmatters plugin settings.

Step 2
Under the “Options” tab and “General” sub-navigation menu, toggle on “Disable Dashicons.”

Step 3
Scroll down and click “Save Changes.”
Note: This doesn’t affect the back-end because the WordPress admin dashboard uses Dashicons. This purposely only removes Dashicons on the front-end when not logged in.
