SVG image is blank

Hello @maxranq

Have you uploaded the SVG properly in your media library?

I have a simple solution for you – Just copy and paste the following code in the functions.php file of your active theme. I always recommend putting the code in the child theme.

function allow_svg_upload($mimes) {
    $mimes['svg'] = 'image/svg+xml';
    return $mimes;
}
add_filter('upload_mimes', 'allow_svg_upload');

Here is a simple video too – https://www.loom.com/share/35f11571300d4bf99c9a6246788aee4e?sid=64a71834-4620-47ad-888d-2524e4e057b3

I hope this will solve your problem. After using the code, you can upload and add svg file anywhere inside your Website.

Thank You

Or you can use a plugin

Hey @radaevich so I have the following code using the WPcode plugin. That SVG plugin breaks my site for some reason. I don’t have an issues with allowing SVG uploads but when the image is uploaded its just blank.

/**
 * Allow SVG uploads for administrator users.
 *
 * @param array $upload_mimes Allowed mime types.
 *
 * @return mixed
 */
add_filter(
	'upload_mimes',
	function ( $upload_mimes ) {
		// By default, only administrator users are allowed to add SVGs.
		// To enable more user types edit or comment the lines below but beware of
		// the security risks if you allow any user to upload SVG files.
		if ( ! current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ) {
			return $upload_mimes;
		}

		$upload_mimes['svg']  = 'image/svg+xml';
		$upload_mimes['svgz'] = 'image/svg+xml';

		return $upload_mimes;
	}
);

/**
 * Add SVG files mime check.
 *
 * @param array        $wp_check_filetype_and_ext Values for the extension, mime type, and corrected filename.
 * @param string       $file Full path to the file.
 * @param string       $filename The name of the file (may differ from $file due to $file being in a tmp directory).
 * @param string[]     $mimes Array of mime types keyed by their file extension regex.
 * @param string|false $real_mime The actual mime type or false if the type cannot be determined.
 */
add_filter(
	'wp_check_filetype_and_ext',
	function ( $wp_check_filetype_and_ext, $file, $filename, $mimes, $real_mime ) {

		if ( ! $wp_check_filetype_and_ext['type'] ) {

			$check_filetype  = wp_check_filetype( $filename, $mimes );
			$ext             = $check_filetype['ext'];
			$type            = $check_filetype['type'];
			$proper_filename = $filename;

			if ( $type && 0 === strpos( $type, 'image/' ) && 'svg' !== $ext ) {
				$ext  = false;
				$type = false;
			}

			$wp_check_filetype_and_ext = compact( 'ext', 'type', 'proper_filename' );
		}

		return $wp_check_filetype_and_ext;

	},
	10,
	5
);
