Icon Group Module
One good use for an icon group would be to display the icons for various credit cards. In this example, all of the icons were styled the same color. Another example is using the Icon group to display social media icons with links
The Icon Group Module inserts a group of icons and uniformly space them.
You can add a link to each icon and add adjust the spacing between them. Each icon's settings include a Screen reader text field where you can enter text intended to appear in the HTML output only to assist screen readers for accessibility. See the Icon module section for details.
Unlike the Icon module, you can't add text, but you have the same style options for the icons, and you can style them either individually or as a group.
Click and drag the Icon Group Module onto the page...
Add Icons:

The Advanced tab offers nearly identical settings on all Drag & Drop Editor rows, columns, and modules.
Spacing section
For rows and columns, you can change the default margin and padding values. For modules, you can change the default margin values only.
Visibility section
In the Breakpoint field, you can set the row, column, or module to display or hide based on device size. In the Display field, you can choose to display the row, column, or module always, never, or only to logged-in or logged-out users.
Animation section
You can assign an entrance animation, which activates the first time the page is loaded and the row, column, or module comes into view. The default is None. If you choose an entrance animation, set the delay (how long before the animation starts, in seconds) and a duration (how long the animation lasts, in seconds.).
HTML Element section
You can choose a different HTML container element for the row, column, or module (advanced users only).
For example, for reasons of accessibility you might want to use an HTML container tag that has more semantic value than a <div
tag, such as <section>
.
Add a CSS ID or class value to the row, column, or module.
ID names must be unique on a page, so assign an ID only when you need to reference that unique ID. For example, a link to an anchor on the page requires a unique anchor so it know exactly where to go. Class names are usually intended for reuse and are often used in CSS rules. For example, you might want to assign a different text size to all HTML headings with an fl-heading
class.
