Specifying custom icons for content items in a content template

You can specify custom icons for content items that are displayed in the web content authoring interface by deploying the image file or multi-scale ZIP file directly into a content template.

  • Supported image file formats are PNG, JPG, and SVG.

  • If you are using multi-scale icons, the collection of images must be compressed into a ZIP file.

  • Click the Applications menu icon in the site toolbar.

  • Click Content > Web Content Authoring.

  • Create a content template, or edit an existing content template.

  • Go to the Form Properties section of the Content Template tab.

  • Click Upload under Preview Image Icon.

  • Upload or select a file component that contains an image, or a multi-scale ZIP file that contains images of various sizes and locales.

  • Click Save and Close.

  • The preview image is used instead of the standard content item icon within the web content authoring interface and within the Site Manager.
