What needs to be done:

Icons are stored here: core/img/filetypes

A mapping for mimetypes: https://github.com/nextcloud/server/blob/master/resources/config/mimetypealiases.dist.json

You either change the existing mapping (e.g. "application/font-woff": "image" to "application/font-woff": "font") or remove the aliases (to fallback to the default resolving).

server/lib/private/Files/Type/Detection.php

Line 348 in fda6ffc

public function mimeTypeIcon($mimetype): string {

Code to resolve a mime type to an icon. It first checks if there is an alias for the mimetype and looks for a file with the mime type name then.

Hi @kesselb ,

I'm trying to attempt this by updating the entry in mimetypealiases.dist.json. However, I got a message in the terminal when running ./occ maintenance:mimetype:update-js:

So I tried to omit the rest after "maintenance" and rerun the command, and I got this:

I thought maybe it's not worth it to do trial and error after the last question that the terminal returned, so I terminated the terminal. Which direction should I take this?

@Mikescops Did you get this too when attempting to solve this issue?

Install nextcloud to use the command maintenance:mimetype:update-js.
