Tip/Discussion: Using Unicode icons as "page type" Edited
I ran into a problem while documenting where I wanted two pages with the same name, so I came up with this solution which has added benefits. I'm prepending a Unicode icon to each page of different "types". For instance, for all my server pages I'm using 🖥. Now, if I have a server named "🖥api.mysite.com" and have another page that needs to be called "api.mysite.com" I have no conflict. This also has the added benefit of looking nice when referencing a page inline and it doesn't interfere with searching or tagging in any way I've found.
I'm curious if anyone has done anything similar and has any related tips?
Personally, I wish Confluence had a concept of "types" for pages, each with its own icon and no naming collisions. Check out the hierarchy under "Reorder pages". Why even have icons if they're all the same?
