Help Users Distinguish Content Sources on Results Page with Icons or Thumbnails

Help users skim through search results faster by appending thumbnails or icons for each content type. A common use involves visually distinguishing your official and community content sources. To demonstrate how it works, we will link a  icon to the content source "Developers Stack" on a content source "Salesforce Communities."

Link an Icon to a Content Type

1. Go to Search Clients and select one for editing.

   

2. In Content Sources, select a content source and then a content type.

   

3. Click Choose Icon.

   

4. Select one of the existing icons or upload a new one and check it, then click .

   

5. If Choose Icon changes from to , then you have successfully linked the icon with the content type and can save your settings.

   

The new icons should now be visible alongside each search result from the content type selected in step 2.
