Timeline Icons

It would be nice if we had different types of icons to choose from for timeline entires. Currently all I am seeing is a star and different color options. It would be nice to have multiple icons to help organize timelines.

Thanks for the suggestion! You can already change the event type to change icons. If you want a custom field to override this, please open another suggestion to see what the community thinks about the idea!

    A way to override the automatically selected icon (based on event type) via a box where one can add a Font Awesome code would be amazing, imho.

    Timeline Icons would be very helpful. There is so much going on in certain times that an Icon for it can make searching for it easier on the writers.

    I would like it if we could change the icon independently from event type (but keep the shape of the shield connected to event type).

    As the roaring Kobold said, you can already change the icon by changing the Event Type. That said, I'm fully in favor of being able to change the icon independent of this.

    I'm all for more icons on Timeline Events. But there are already icons available other than the Star in Timelines. Changing the Event Type (to the left of Importance setting) when editing an event should change the event Icon.

    Would make categorising events a lot easier so people can identify things at first glance
