How do you change the Store Icon for a Chrome Extension?


How do you change the Store Icon for a Chrome Extension in the Chrome Web Store?

The field I'm looking to change is found under 'Chrome Web Store Developer Dashboard' -> 'Store Listing' -> 'Graphic Assets'. When I first created the extension, I could upload an image there. In fact, I had to in order to submit the extension. But after that initial upload I have not found any way to change it, either in the manifest or through the dashboard.

Is it really set forever? Is there no way to change it?

BTW, the icons section of manifest.json lists the following icons, but with a different graphical asset than the initial upload. And the default action icon is correct. It is just the web store listing I can't seem to change.

  "icons": {
    "128": "icon-128.png",
    "64": "icon-64.png",
    "48": "icon-48.png",
    "32": "icon-32.png",
    "16": "icon-16.png"
  },

Solution

  • I just stumbled upon this, as well. Hover on the icon in the dev dashboard, there will be a trashcan that appears on the top right that you can click to delete the image.
