How do I insert a custom menu tab in the main menu?

To add a custom menu tab in the main menu, within your AdminCP head to Setup, Public navigation.

From here, you will be able to see and modify all the default navigation tabs. You will also be able to add new navigation tabs.

The following section in the XenForo Docs will help you get started - https://xenforo.com/xf2-docs/manual/navigation/

How can you enable the customed links only visible for logged-in users?

And also, how can you customize the icon infront of the nav button text?

Use $xf.visitor.user_id in the Display condition field.

And also, how can you customize the icon infront of the nav button text?

XF doesn't have icons for nav items out of the box.

If you are using a third party style you can check with the author.
Otherwise, for the default style there are various posts and resources explaining how to do it: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/font-awesome-icons-in-navbar-for-2-1.6817/

But surely you can just put a FA icon in the title field. I did that on my site and it appears to work for my info tab

<i class="fas fa-info" aria-hidden="true"></i>  Info

You can do that with your own custom entries, but you can't with the core entries as dev mode needs to be enabled.
