<p>Hi Byron,</p>
<p>Sorry for the diversion.</p>
<p>In fact, what do you mean by "import"?</p>
<p>If you want to use one or more symbols from those folders, see
(amongst many other tutorials)
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://geo.rocks/post/qgis-custom-svg-markers/">https://geo.rocks/post/qgis-custom-svg-markers/</a><br>
</p>
Note that by default, on Windows, svg files will have the icon of
your default browser. They are plain xml files.<br>
<p>Hope this helps.</p>
<p>BTW, I've downloaded the files and there is no problem using them
in QGIS once you put them into the SVG path.<br>
</p>
Regards,<br>
Benoit

<p>Hey Benoit,</p>
<p>now all is fine :) Can imagine that it's not so easy to
keep everything up to date . <br>
E.g. the geological stuff from the Resource Sharing Plugin
seems to be mainly non-functional as well at the moment

<p>Thanx a bunch!</p>

<p>Hi Bernd,</p>
<p>You're right the xml's on the repo do point to
non-existent folders.</p>
<p>I've added a FGDC folder to the repo with the
correct folder structure. Copy that folder (FGDC)
into one of QGIS svg path folders and you can then
use the xml files to import the svg symbols.<br>

<p>sorry for the confusion. I specifically refer to
your answer and the linked project. There is a
svg-folder and a folder with the xml-files from
the download.</p>
<p>Setting the path to the svg-folder and then
importing the xml is simply not successful.</p>
<p>As you refered to this project, I assumed that
you successfully imported those styles.</p>
