Re: [Zope] [Zope product] How to register an icon for an abstract superclass ?

I aim to have a ZMI icon shared by many classes who inherit from the same superclass.

As I didn't want those class appear in the ZMI "add object" choice list, I didn't register them in the .init file.

You can register the class but with the "visible=0" paramter. Alternatively, you can use the old "misc" feature: "misc" is a dictionary mapping ids to objects (e.g. "ImageFile" objects). When the product initialization code find a "misc" variable in the module, it publishes its content under: /misc_/<product_name>/id You can then define "icon= '/misc_/<product_name>/id'" in your class.
