 ### Icons
 
 openHAB allows a set of icons to be assigned to the different states of an Item and therefore to be presented in a Sitemap.
+This first way of proceeding only considers the current state of the linked item and requires the use of icons provided by openHAB and a particular syntax of icon names.
 Please refer to the documentation on [Item configuration]({{base}}/configuration/items.html#icons) for details.

+There is also a more powerful way to define a dynamic icon based on the states of different items and allowing you to attach any type of icon regardless of its source (not restricted to icons provided by openbHAB).
+
+The `icon` parameter can be used to provide conditional rules.
+
+Extended icon syntax:
+
+```java
+icon=[item_name operator value = icon, item_name operator value AND item_name operator value = icon, ... ]
+```
+
+You can set as many conditions as you want, along with a reference to an icon for each condition.
+
+A condition can be a single comparison or a combination of several comparisons all separated by the AND operator.
+A condition including the AND operator will be considered as true if all individual comparisons are considered as true.
+Of course, it is possible to reference a different item in each comparison.
+
+Note that `item_name` and `operator` are both optional.
+If `item_name` is not provided, the Item name will default to the current Item.
+If an operator is not specified, the operator will default to `==`.
+
+Conditions are evaluated from left to right; the first matching condition determines the icon.
+If only a reference to an icon is specified, that condition is considered as true and that icon will be used.
+It can be used as a last condition to set a default icon that will be used in case any of the other previous conditions is true.
+
+The comparison operators are the same as for the visibility parameter.
+
+**Examples:**
+
+The following three lines are equivalent.
+
+```java
+Text item=TemperatureTrend icon=["UP"=f7:arrowtriangle_up, "DOWN"=f7:arrowtriangle_down, f7:arrowtriangle_right]
+Text item=TemperatureTrend icon=[=="UP"=f7:arrowtriangle_up, =="DOWN"=f7:arrowtriangle_down, f7:arrowtriangle_right]
+Text item=TemperatureTrend icon=[TemperatureTrend=="UP"=f7:arrowtriangle_up, TemperatureTrend=="DOWN"=f7:arrowtriangle_down, f7:arrowtriangle_right]
+```
