Similar to a closed idea from two years ago: 

And a broader version of what I’d be looking for in this idea I just submitted: 

 

Ideation Status Labels are fully customizable by color and text. It’d be great to have for topic labels as well. 

The ability to add ad hoc custom labels to a topic is nice, but ideally I’d be able to edit the default labels and/or our custom labels would also show in the label drop-down list. Our taxonomy for labels is a bit different than the defaults, so showing those (and not the custom labels) causes confusion and inconsistency on how labels are applied. 

Hi @DannyPancratz, thanks for sharing the idea. If I understand correctly, you’d like to:

  1. Be able to customize the color and text for topic labels;
  2. Be able to change the default set of labels in the topic creation and moderation page. (Agreed that the default set is quite confusing.)

Could you give some examples of how you’d like to use the labels? e.g. what’s the label text? which content type is it for? When would you use it?

And do you see the labels are shared across different content types?

@xiaoyu-shen , that’s correct. 


Resurrecting this idea (these ideas) as we would love to be able to choose label color as well. We have a few use cases for it, but one key one is with regard to how we use Product Updates for our Roadmap and Release Notes. We have Roadmap Overview articles that detail what’s on each release by date, and it would be nice to adjust label colors to differentiate between Released, Current, and Future releases beyond just the label text itself.
