Is there any way to associate an icon with a specific template?

Brent Knowles

i.e., if meeting notes had a different icon than normal pages than they would stand out better when doing a search.

 

Right now if you do a search you and get multiple matches, visually being able to see that a page is a meeting note versus a decision versus a standard note, would improve the search efficiency / user experience.

Hello Brent and welcome to the Community!

This is a great idea, and you’re not the first to ask about this either. We had a question similar to this which @Shannon S provided a great answer for. The answer Shannon put together is as follows:

This would require a bit of development knowledge. You can start by reviewing the pages here:

• Confluence Icons
• How to Customize Confluence Icons

Personally, I'm not sure how you would specify different icons for different page templates, since Confluence currently sees them as either a page or a blog post. There's no additional categories here, so I would imagine it would require quite a bit more of development.

I would encourage you to also visit our Developer Resources if that's something you'd be interested in.
