SVG Support
1M+ active installs · Rated 4.8/5 · Updated July 25, 2026
SVG Support lets administrators upload SVG files to the media library. It sanitises each upload, can restrict uploads by user role, and can render SVG inline so that CSS and JavaScript can style or animate its parts. It suits designers and developers who work with SVG graphics. One limit: inline rendering and its options sit behind Advanced Mode, so the default setup only uploads and sanitises files.
Pros
- Sanitises SVG uploads and restricts them by user role
- Inline rendering allows CSS and JavaScript styling and animation
- Free, with no account or external service needed
Cons
- Inline rendering and styling options need Advanced Mode to be turned on
- Sanitisation adds processing time to each SVG upload
- Some features need developer knowledge to configure
