# Important: #97950 - New "iconIdentifier" option in login providers {#important-97950-1657892101}

See [forge#97950](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/97950)

## Description {#description}

A new option `iconIdentifier` is added to login providers, which accepts
any icon that's available in the Icon Registry.

Example:

```php
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['backend']['loginProviders'][1433416747] = [
    'provider' => UsernamePasswordLoginProvider::class,
    'sorting' => 50,
    'iconIdentifier' => 'actions-key',
    'label' => 'LLL:EXT:backend/Resources/Private/Language/locallang.xlf:login.link',
];
```
