    'label' => 'Platform Name',       // Display name shown in the UI
)

array(
    'icon'  => '<svg ...>...</svg>',  // SVG markup for the platform icon
    'label' => 'Platform Name',       // Display name shown in the UI
)

Usage

function mytheme_add_social_platform( $platforms ) {
    $platforms['mastodon'] = array(
        'icon'  => '<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16" height="16" fill="currentColor" viewBox="0 0 16 16"><!-- mastodon icon path --></svg>',
        'label' => 'Mastodon',
    );
    return $platforms;
}

add_filter( 'method_available_social_platforms', 'mytheme_add_social_platform' );

function mytheme_add_social_platform( $platforms ) {
    $platforms['mastodon'] = array(
        'icon'  => '<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="16" height="16" fill="currentColor" viewBox="0 0 16 16"><!-- mastodon icon path --></svg>',
        'label' => 'Mastodon',
    );
    return $platforms;
}

Notes

• Platform slugs are used as the stored value in the social_accounts option group. Changing a slug after links have been configured will break existing entries.
• Icons should use fill="currentColor" to inherit the color set by Method’s color controls.
• The custom platform provides a generic link icon and is intended for platforms not in the default list.
