Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
This may be difficult to implement, but it would be wonderful if you could color-code items on the timeline based on taxonomy. In addition, different content types could be represented with different colors (based simply on node-type-- this could already be in place but I didn't see documentation for it). Maybe these options could be configured separately within the settings for each timeline.

Arto CreditAttribution: Arto commentedChad, this could indeed be a useful feature. Unfortunately, I don't personally have the possibility to tackle it in the foreseeable future - perhaps one of the other developers could be interested? Leaving this open, patches welcome.
Note that it could make sense to implement #104890 and this at the same time, given that different content types might be represented by different icons.

recidive CreditAttribution: recidive commentedI've roughed a patch that implements this feature. The patch is kinda hackish and needs improvement.
To test this you need to:
Currently colors are limited to 16.
Ideas to improve the patch are welcome :)

spython CreditAttribution: spython commentedThis is great!
Does somebody know how to use different bullets for "instant" events? I want them to look similar to events with different start/end date.

Is it possible to attach one color with one term, and then make a legend ?

spython CreditAttribution: spython commentedWould be nice if someone could implement the same functionality for drupal 6 version.

emersonlenon CreditAttribution: emersonlenon commentedThe calendar module for views does this color coding and legend thing already, may be that would provide an easy method?

xamanu CreditAttribution: xamanu commentedThis feature has been added to the 2.x version of the timeline module by using views "group by" option.
