[polar kelp]

And select.select_option shoudl be the correct service indeed.

[viscid oyster]

then final version that should work

[polar kelp]

Still the wrong service

[viscid oyster]

yeah not the is state

so which one should i put instead

[blazing wren]

You do need it in the is state

[blazing wren]

I spy... 👀🕵️‍♀️

[polar kelp]

And before you let this scare you away from Home Assistant; Generic Thermostat is as legacy integration and one of few that still require yaml intervention. In many cases you never need to know the entity id at all, and that's why it's been given less focus in the frontend and may be hard to find sometimes. It will likely be ported over to a fully GUI configuration without yaml at all at some point.

[polar kelp]

s/shoudl/should/ ?

[viscid oyster]

and i think it's still really good tbh i just didn't had the time to look at this alot (yet)

[blazing wren]

Nope. I spy the needed service!

[polar kelp]

[viscid oyster]

i am tired xd

close your eyes

[dawn acorn]

defuck

[polar kelp]

Try again and I'll pretend I didn't see that.
<#frontend-archived message>

But that's the last I'll say. It's late over here too and I just got back from a bussines trip to Manchester.

[viscid oyster]

Good luck with that !

yikes the more the night is going the less focused i am

[blazing wren]

You may need to put the word "off" in quotes like I have done.

[polar kelp]

Just put "s around "off" too because YAML and I can sleep well tonight.

[viscid oyster]

me too ! at least i will have the heater working

[polar kelp]

Wait

You had the value_template before

Now you don't.

[blazing wren]

Yeah. You lost the template part

[viscid oyster]

without the is_state -> switch goes off directly after turned on and reported as always off

with the is_state -> looks like it reports the status correctly but dosen't control anything

[blazing wren]

So you probably need to actually do something better with the is_state

But it's midnight here. Try the templates channel and share the template using Pastie, not a screenshot 😉

[viscid oyster]

and it's 1 here 💤

i will check that tomorrow for sure

Thanks again for the help !

[cedar breach]

Hi like-wise! I'm trying to beautify my 'sidebar.yaml' in HomeAssistant Lovelace UI (from Matt8707's Github). What I'm trying to achieve is something like this;
If, for example, binary_sensor.lumi_kontorsfonstret_contact = on, then the text says "Kontorsfonstret open". If more than 1 contact states "on", say "2 windows open", and split sensors for doors and windows, so doors should say "X door is open" "Y doors are open"

https://pastebin.com/GzzQsZ2m

Is this possible to achieve?

[signal bloom]

hey gents

I have a pellet stove and I'm searching for the best card to cotrol its fan

control

so, it basically have a sensor that reports the fan mode : sensor.fan_mode

and states goes from 0 to 5

I'd like to allow my family to be able to switch states using a slider or something

what card should I use ?

thing is, it's not reported as a fan, should I create a fan entity out of it ?

[signal bloom]

thing is, if I select the stove entity, and uses a climate card, everything orks, I can see all the fan modes

so what I want, is simply to dedicate a card to change the fan mode, so my family doesn't have to go in deeper menus

[blazing wren]

The fan mode is a select, right?

[fickle peak]

Hi all, quick question - is there/what's the best resource for different HA themes? Is HACs the main place to go or is there somewhere else that has a collection of themes?

[blazing wren]

HACS is a very popular place to search, not everything is in it so the forums are another good resource too

[fickle peak]

Thanks, I'll check them both out 👍

[fiery ledge]

any DOM path wizard around that can help me with https://community.home-assistant.io/t/card-mod-super-charge-your-themes/212176/1273?u=mariusthvdb ? I need the unique identifier of a mwc-list-item, and not the ordered number, because that changes depending on the layout...

[plush shadow]

How do I uncheck energy sidebar?

[blazing wren]

In the sidebar you can choose which dashboards to hide on your machine

Click your name in the bottom left, and then "edit sidebar"

[viscid oyster]

Finally finished my dashboard ! Mushroom is so good 🙂

I am using double tap to access to secret menus with all the entities per room

I still need to make it responsive and show the temp per room but for now it’s good enough

[blazing wren]

Nice, you should share it in the forums, there's a section there for showing off and I'm sure lots of folks would like the inspiration

https://community.home-assistant.io/c/projects/frontend/34

You can share the YAML as well as screenshots too. And then post the thread back here 😄

[plush shadow]

Thank you

[kindred anchor]

Does anyone have a good article/resource for how to get started with editing lovelace cards (ie. the size of icons, adding/removing attributes, etc)? This really is my first foray into messing with dashboards now that i've finally gotten enough devices in there to want to display them properly

[viscid oyster]

i would like to show a random entity as secondary information on a template_card (in this case the temperature)

how can i make it not showing in a dumb way the entity name but the entity data (temperature) instead ?

[blazing wren]

Well you need to actually call the states() function 😉

You're just printing the name of the entity right now

And please, share YAML as text, not screenshots

type: custom:mushroom-template-card
primary: Bedroom
secondary: "{{ states('sensor.kitchen_something') }}"
entity: sensor.kitchen_something

[viscid oyster]

Thanks a lot ! i thought the image was more explicit with the widget view :/

is there a page where i can find all the home assistant yaml functions ?

[blazing wren]

Yes, check the pins in #templates-archived for the Jinja templating functions

[devout charm]

Can you customize an entities attributes as they appear in the frontend?

{{state_attr('climate.study','hvac_modes')}} returns [<HVACMode.OFF: 'off'>, <HVACMode.FAN_ONLY: 'fan_only'>, <HVACMode.HEAT_COOL: 'heat_cool'>]

I'd like to change the 'friendly' state of those modes to my own wording for use in lovelave.
For my use case heat_cool shows as "Heat/Cool" but I'd like it to show "Climate". Likewise the fan and off modes would be "Open" and "Closed".

[dark dirge]

You'd have to do it as part of whatever card that is, and it may not be possible

[vapid rose]

@dark dirge here's a screenshot of what I'm trying to do, continuing the subject of #automations-archived

[dark dirge]

so you're already using {{ user }} earlier, which is presumably the name of the logged in user

you want the person entity_id that corresponds to that user name?

[vapid rose]

yes and no, because I tried to do it with {{user}} but it didn't work, maybe I must have done it grammatically wrong in the code because I don't know how to put it to work, I'm in trial and error

[dark dirge]

so...

you want the person entity_id that corresponds to that user name?

that part of your template is quite broken, so I assume that's what you're trying to fix

[vapid rose]

What I want to do with this code is: when I log in with the user Dazzlly the card appears my entity with my information like photo and status and in the future if it works I will put the status of my phone, and when I log in with other users for example Renato, that his data appear instead, and so on

[dark dirge]

does that card do all of that if you just give it a person entity_id?

that is all well outside of what the template itself can do

[vapid rose]

theoretically yes if I can get the first part to work, the rest will be complement by default

[vapid rose]

if this condition of the entity works, logically the body of the card corresponds to the entity do logically I imagine that it works, the problem is to make it work lol

[dark dirge]

alright, so back to the actual request. you want the template to output person.renato if {{ user }} says Renato?

{% set user = 'Rob' %}
{{ states.person|selectattr('attributes.friendly_name', 'eq', user)|map(attribute='entity_id')|join }}
``` -> `person.rob`

[vapid rose]

exactly

[vapid rose]

how do i put this on the line?

[dark dirge]

entity: "{{ states.person|selectattr('attributes.friendly_name', 'eq', user)|map(attribute='entity_id')|join }}"

[vapid rose]

would this be an example?

[dark dirge]

no, use what I gave you

you stuck it in the middle of other stuff

and your name isn't "Rob"

(I suspect)

I gave you an example that I tested, then exactly what you should type

get rid of the stuff that you tried, put my thing there

[vapid rose]

ok I'll adjust and test, I just put exactly what you wrote to understand if it was in the right place but I'll test it here lol

[devout charm]

it's a bunch of mushroom climate cards. I wasn't succesful trying that approach.

[dark dirge]

well, they don't claim to be the most customizable cards out there

[vapid rose]

got this error testing now, does this indicate anything?

The entity ('{% set user = 'renato' %} {{ states.person|selectattr('attributes.friendly_name', 'eq', user)|map(attribute='entity_id')|join }}') does not has a unique ID, so its settings cannot be managed from the UI. See the documentation for more details.

[dark dirge]

you have added {% set user = 'renato' %}

[devout charm]

true. I'll put it in the too hard basket.

[dark dirge]

please, please just use exactly, precisely what I gave you

the rest of it I can't read

#frontend-archived message

[vapid rose]

yes

[vapid rose]

thus?

or that way?

[dark dirge]

you keep not typing exactly what I gave you 🤷

I don't know why you keep adding stuff and not just copying and pasting what I gave you

see the link, do that

[vapid rose]

I made it

but when I saved it was like this
and it still didn't work

[vapid rose]

stopping to think, putting it that way you gave me an idea of code order

@dark dirge maybe it's something close to this code?

[dark dirge]

it is most definitely not

if you would just use what I gave you, you would have been done an hour ago

[vapid rose]

but i tried, here #frontend-archived message

I also opened a topic on the forum to see if anyone else has any ideas.

[late torrent]

I'm a big fan of the design of Mushroom slider cards. However, how does one use it to control a fan that has steps instead of just a percentage? Or use it for any other entuty than a fan. (my solution now is reflecting an input number percentage to the fan status)

[outer gulch]

how can i limit a user to a specific dashboard?

[vapid rose]

I know this one, go to edit panel

go to visibility option

💡 this gave me an idea but i found a bug 👾
🤔

when selecting the edit with YAML option it does not present the code as it should

Does anyone know who or where I report this bug?

[lofty remnant]

Hi, is there any way to put the side buttons? In the sense that there are arrows but pointing to the right or left. Be that icon.

[zenith ether]

I'm going crazy, is there a css and/or card-mod magician here?

I don't understand why aren't all of the buttons are green

I think I've tried everything, all kinds of selectors and stuff, but those three buttons won't budge

ah I see it's the multiple depth of shadow-roots that are the problem

[zenith ether]

I'm trying to setup a monitor like this on my dashboard but I can't seem to get a line graph like in the photo. I followed his instructions and I'm only getting number statistics. Can anyone assist? https://community.home-assistant.io/t/bathroom-humidity-exhaust-fan/509992/12

[frigid axle]

custom:mini-graph-card

[mortal zealot]

Sorry, new guy here, where would I put that?

[vast crane]

Can you elaborate a bit what you mean "only getting statistics"? You shouldn't need to go to custom cards to display basic charts.

[vast crane]

Ah that's an entities card. You want a history graph card

When you click "add new card" on the dashboard, you picked the wrong type.

[mortal zealot]

Yes, I see that now. Thank you for the help.

[wet palm]

Hey, is it possible to open that menu in the screenshot for example via a mushroom chip? I cannot find any action or whatever to call that menu for editing the dashboard

I only want to see logs during 10pm-8am

[lean imp]

Having difficulty trying to use card mod to remove the margin in between these three cards. I'm not able to use stack in card in this instance but need these three cards to appear as one. What do I need to do in card mod to have them "join" with no space between?

[quaint snow]

i vaguely remember seeing an official dashboard card released that allowed like click of a button and that card would completely change, like a room view or something, if thats right whats the name of it?

Area Card?

[umbral harness]

I think you mean the dashboard config options

"subview"

[quaint snow]

ah the 'hideable' dasboard?

or tab rather

[umbral harness]

https://www.home-assistant.io/dashboards/views/#subview

that right?

[quaint snow]

yeah i think so?

would that be the best way to do rooms, or am i better off with something like the Custom Pop Up Card?

[umbral harness]

so you could have area cards used in a dashboard and then have rooms in subviews

but idk if that is best or w/e just play with it i guess

[quaint snow]

thats what its all about 😄

[umbral harness]

It’s not about the journey it’s about the friends you make along the way

I'm trying to create a button card template but says button card template is missing - the button_card_templates: is in the ui-lovelace.yaml - in config file lovelace mode: storage - what am I missing ?

[dark dirge]

If you're using storage mode, you aren't using ui-lovelace.yaml

[outer gulch]

That doesn't limit a user to that dashboard, that just excludes the user from that pane in that dashboard. It's not the same question

[cerulean iron]

Hello! 🙂 I made a mistake and deleted a whole lovelace tab. But lucky me, I did a backup! Where can I find the file to restore a lovelace tab in my backup?

(of my main dashboard)

Ah I think I found it! It was the lovelace file!

[vapid rose]

...?

[nova bloom]

Is there anyway to get the View to automatically change based on the state of an entity?

[simple grotto]

hi, is there a better way to do this in lovelace's entities card:

        conditions:
          - entity: binary_sensor.front_gate
            state: 'off'
        row:
          entity: binary_sensor.front_gate
          icon: mdi:gate
      - type: conditional
        conditions:
          - entity: binary_sensor.front_gate
            state: 'on'
        row:
          entity: binary_sensor.front_gate
          icon: mdi:gate-open```

[modest frost]

I'm looking for a card to adjust an input number, I'd like one that looks like the thermostat card. Is anyone aware of one?

[timid beacon]

Is there a way to force a dashboard layout to be 2 columns?

I am using Fully Kiosk on my TV and most of the time it displays fine in two columns. However, sometimes for whatever reason it doesn't think that the width is enough, and it ends up shifting everything over the be a single column with a huge (basically half the screen) gap on the right side where the column normally would be

I guess I could put everything into a horizontal and vertical stack. This dashboard is only ever displayed on my TV

Are there layout specific techniques to do this though? Or is someone familiar with this issue and know how to fix the underlying problem?

[atomic glacier]

@timid beacon the best https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card

[mortal compass]

I've also experienced that issue happening "randomly" when I first open up my dashboard on desktop, and it fixes itself if I refresh

[outer gulch]

That doesn't mean that the user is locked to one dashboard, that means that that user is excluded from a view in a dashboard. Whenever I add a new view and a dashboard, I have to constantly keep re-excluding.

[fading otter]

Mini-media question. Im trying to add the shortcuts into this grouped card without luck 😦 any ideas?

Does anyone have any ideas what's causing my videos to not go full screen? It appears that card mod or mushroom or both when used together prevent the videos from going full screen. If I remove either of them then it works. I am using the latest version of both, 2023.1.1-full companion app and 2023.2b3 It out of nowhere became an issue and no updates were done to cards, dashboard code or core updates before it became an issue.

Also important to note it works in Google chrome just not android companion app. It stopped working on a Samsung s21 a few weeks before my s22.

can some help an idiot understand how all this is working, i can never get thing som HACS to work, trying to Xiaomi Cloud Map Extractor. but all i get is error all the time.

[simple scroll]

Why I get only the triangle but no actual temperature from the working sensor?

[mortal compass]

Hovering over the warning triangle should give you the error message

[simple scroll]

I must have missed some important definition in the card yaml . How to get temperature reading from the otherwise working sensor and present it on my floor plan image using picture elements card? The working example would be much appreciated.

[mortal compass]

Remove the line that says attribute:, since you just want the state of the sensor

[simple scroll]

!!! done !! and it works. Thank you so much.

[hollow otter]

Anyone have a recommendation for if I want the mushroom chips card to show the attribute for the entity instead of the value itself? I'd like it to show the battery percentage as shown, but when I click on it I want to open up the device_tracker.88_c9_e8_01_e7_4d entity for it.

Right now I'm working around it by using an automation to make a number helper based on the battery state, and just displaying that in the chip instead. but it's getting that decimal place I can't get rid of, and also I can't click it to get the location like I'd like.

[tough hamlet]

Hello everyone, I'm looking for a solution to render something like the cover button, but for a remote script: I have several remote-activated roller shutters. I bought a broadlink rm4 and created commands and right now I use buttons with a script to trigger them

Cover button only works for cover entities, but I don't have any since i only got one broadlink remote entity

Suggestions?

Hi all, is there a way to just download/import existing dashboards made by other users, also Is there a link to view dashboard made by other users?

You can copy the YAML if they share it.

But no, there is no built in "blueprints" for dashboards.

Gotcha.

[copper isle]

Really want to know if there is a way to minimize the distance between icon and entity name in Entities Card. Issue I am facing is when I use 2 cards in Grid Card, Entities card has too much distance between icon and name of entity. When I try to view it on small screen(phone screen) name of the entity does not show up completely. Screenshot of the distance marked in red is attached.

[fiery ledge]

you should configure the tap_action with the action: call-service and your script in the service: field. See: https://github.com/custom-cards/button-card#Action

[mystic timber]

but the entity id on the top has action built in it, should I add the action at the bottom of the button?

[fiery ledge]

you can try: card_mod: style: hui-generic-entity-row: $: | state-badge .info { margin-left: 1px; } but it night interfere with the entities below too. Also, did you check https://community.home-assistant.io/t/card-mod-add-css-styles-to-any-lovelace-card/120744/1188, it might be hidden there too 😉

[fiery ledge]

order doesnt matter in this case.

[mystic timber]

Like that?
http://pastie.org/p/4XXkiGQ77jvvkfrMRqMqtN

[fiery ledge]

no. did you read the documentation I linked you?

[mystic timber]

I did.

[copper isle]

Tried on default Entities card but it's not working. This is how I have used the code.

type: entities
entities:

• entity: sensor.disk_use_percent_config
  card_mod:
  style:
  hui-generic-entity-row:
  $: |
  state-badge .info {
  margin-left: 1px;
  }

[fiery ledge]

you missed the correct syntax: tap_action: action: call-service service: script.xxx

[fiery ledge]

sorry about that, I had it set in Inspector, and forgot to copy the correct path. try```
entities:

• entity: device_tracker.udmpro
  secondary_info: last-changed
  card_mod:
  style:
  hui-generic-entity-row:
  $: |
  .info.pointer {
  margin-left: 1px;
  }

it should show like:

Didnt test it on various layouts though, so I dont know if this is what you want using responsive browser layout

[copper isle]

now it's working. Thanks
Is there a way as well to decrease the distance before icon?

[hollow shell]

Anyone know how to get a straight horizontal line on y-axis in a apex chart? It supposed to be a upper limit.

[lyric prairie]

As in a line with a fixed value?

  - entity: sensor.dummy
    # change 50 to desired value
    transform: "return 50"
    type: line

[hollow shell]

Yes indeed as fixed value

Hi guys. Im a beginner wanting a button to wol my LGOS TV. I have made the wol code in my yaml, i also have created an input button. But i cant figure out how to rund wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet when my input button is pressed? any tips for this? so i really want how do i make a button press trigger a WOL call as stated in my configuration.yaml

[shadow vessel]

Can you modify theme variables at the card level?

[fiery ledge]

yes, try:```
type: entities
card_mod:
style: |
.card-content {
padding-left: 0px;
}
entities:

• entity: device_tracker.udmpro
  card_mod:
  style:
  hui-generic-entity-row:
  $: |
  .info.pointer {
  margin-left: 1px;
  }```

that removes the padding in the full entities card

you might be able to remove it for the single entity too, you need to check the inspector for the correct property to style/mod

[copper isle]

@fiery ledge Thank you. It is working flawless.

[fiery ledge]

great, thanks for the feedback

[fiery ledge]

you can make the button to run any service you want. First be sure to have that correct, and then simple add it to a call-service

I've made that into a switch btw:```
switch:

https://www.home-assistant.io/components/switch.wake_on_lan/

• platform: wake_on_lan
  name: Wake Synology Nas
  mac: !secret synology_mac
  host: !secret synology_host
  turn_off:
  service: button.press
  target:
  entity_id: button.diskstation_shutdown``` so I can effectively toggle it

[final forge]

I did it thx :]

[final forge]

Could i pm for private help on such a toggle xD

[fiery ledge]

no need for PM, just ask here, unless its the #integrations-archived part of it you want info on

[rustic hazel]

from an add-on's backend, how can one fetch data from HASS os?

[karmic tendon]

Wanna share a bit more ... like it

in fact...this would be also nice on the forum...easier to read

[final forge]

that code, do you write it in the yaml file, or, do you create it via the user interface?

[fiery ledge]

I write it all in Yaml, though, if you have the script/switch available, you could write the Button card in the UI

[final forge]

button card in ui was what i did first time. now im trying a switch. ill try something like your code. but after adding in in the yaml, how do i get it showing in the interface? (n00b question) and the turn off commando has an entity_id: button diskstation shutdown" (a separate button) do i need to do two buttons prior to making a switch? (both a turn on button and a turn off button)?

[fiery ledge]

no, the yaml I showed above is all required. Its the wake on lan command (if your server supports that), and a button created by the Diskstation integration used for the turn_off configuration option. this will create an entity in your system switch.whatever_you_namedit Next, you can use that switch entity in any Dahsboard card you choose. for startes, use it in an entities card, so you are sure all works correctly. If yes, then turn it into a button if you want that.

as an example, this I what I use, as a guarded switch in an entities card

[final forge]

Ok so i have to do a power off card separatley first then so i can call that entity in your yaml file example. I forgot how i did a buton tho. I can make a button appear in the ui but how do i tell tha button to use the lgos integration power off? How to make that connection to a button?

[fiery ledge]

maybe I wasn't clear, I didnt create the button, it's provided by the Synology integration directly, it's the Shutdown (button entity) here. You should check if the integration for your server has something like that

[final forge]

aha how to easily search what entity ids i have? i probably have a LG-turn off enity since its in a button in a mediaplayer card

in "developer tools" + "services" i can set up a media player toggle power state and when i test "call service" it works flawlessly. i just really dont know how to get that service upon pressing a toggle button then i guess? (getting closer)

[fiery ledge]

uhm, a media_player is a totally different beast compared to a NAS server I figure. If your talking about a media_player toggle, you should probably be looking to different services/entities. That really is an #integrations-archived topic though

[final forge]

ok im just fiddling around trying to learn. its really really damn hard. is there any easy way to learn more about diffrent card types and how to connect these ui cards to real things? (generally speaking) where should i begin reading up on it all? (last question for now) PS in "developer tools" i can create a service, but only one service, cant i create more services there?

[fiery ledge]

in all honesty, start at the beginning 😉 just open the dashboard documentation and dive in. Although I am a yaml user, I do have a testing UI configured dashboard, and experiment in that. Mostly only to find out tht the core cards are not configurabe enough, and again need modding. or replacing with custom-cards. Yet, there is no way of finding what you need without starting as simple as can be

and, in dev tools, (developer-tools/service) you can not 'create' a service, only select one that is already available? So I am not sure what you're on about there

[icy patrol]

Hello, I have an odd issue on hand. I am using an input bol to allow a hold temp to be selected that has a lock option. This works ok but you will also notice the entity above has a lock option. So when I try to select for example 70, it thinks I want to unlock the entity in the middle as well.

[charred nebula]

hey all, I am presently using the climate card, is there a way to add an extra option onto this to show the room temp from another temp sensor?

bascially is there a way to take that climate card and create a copy and add stuff to it ?

[balmy wolf]

Where is data stored that is shown on the statistics graph card located?

[polar kelp]

In your database of choice https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/recorder/

guys

I try to find the best card to do the following

I'd like to have one "switch" to enable all the lights of an area + a detail of all the lights, one by one, in the same card, and the ability to pick one light, and select its brightness, color, etc.

can you please let me know what I should use ?

mushroom seems to have it but I'm missing the "grouping" of all the lights in a single card that has a general switch

i accidentally added two lovelace integrations. they both appear on myleft side pandel. can i an if so ho uninstall the second lovelace integration? even if i hide one of them,, upon restart they get visible again. Running HAOS really annoied. Would appriciape any help i could on this. and it looks like this.

[sly minnow]

yeah that looks to be the same issue, cheers

[lyric prairie]

Check the configuration settings of the UI Lovelace Minimalist integration. There you can deselect one of the two.

[final forge]

Hmm where is that located exactly?

[final forge]

Ok

[modest frost]

I can't seem to find a card to suit my needs, so maybe someone can direct on how to create my own.

I would like to be able to adjust an input_number using a curved slider similar to the thermostat card. Can anyone advise on where to start or better yet, point out an existing solution I was unable to find?

oh, just found the appropriate docs.

Has the Resources tab moved? I can't seem to find it and I have advanced mode enabled.

This documentation: https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/frontend/custom-ui/registering-resources/ appears to be incorrect.

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/where-are-dashboard-resources-tab-in-the-new-ui/435822

Stupid question: What variable do I need to call for the friendly name of the device currently being used is shown in a title card?

[gritty loom]

Ok, so i have a honeywell portable AC, to get it to work with home assistant i had to add it to SmartLife app and route it through Tuya. and im guessing Tuya defines it as a generic AC. Which means some of the buttons that are on the dashboard card dont work, or arent supported by the AC itself. How can i remove the unused buttons from the AC card and change the api call of the buttons that arent working

[charred pebble]

Is it possible to change the color of the secondary text in a Mushroom Template card ?

[vast crane]

You could create generic_thermostat with the features that you want to support, and then automate changes in that into service calls to your honeywell. But you can't really modify what the climate entity from tuya claims to support.

[gritty loom]

hmm, that sucks. the SmartLife app supports the changes. and the attributes show in a debug output.

[vast crane]

What specifically is wrong with the thermostat?

[gritty loom]

So I found a card that lets me remove the none functioning buttons. Like heating. But what do snt work is changing the fan speeds. I can do that through smart life, but the card has the button and won't actually change it. @vast crane

[vast crane]

I guess you could file a github core issue against the integration, maybe see if someone can fix it.

[stuck saddle]

Is it somehow possible to have OR in a conditional card?
Like entity: sensor.xx state: 1 OR entity: sensor.xx state: on

[vast crane]

Doesn't look like it in the docs, but you could create a template that is true whenever your arbitrary conditions are satisfied, and use that as the condition.

[stuck saddle]

I see, thx.

[devout charm]

Anyone know of a card that supports tap_action that I can nest another card in?
I've got a nice summary weather card that I want to navigate to a separate weather page when clicked on. The weather card doesn't support tap_action

[dusk crown]

hi all. can you help me understand what type of card is it?
can I take temperature or some other data and combine it with on/off data to make a graph like this myself?

I want these 2 data sources to combine like that too - blue color fill on the temperature graph when this is on

[vast crane]

That's just the basic history graph card. The blue color fill is a hardcoded special behavior of the climate entity, you can't reproduce it with anything else.

the fill means the climate entity is cooling.

Maybe you can get it if you can munge your data somehow to fit into a climate entity via generic thermostat.

[vast crane]

forgot to ping - see message above

[signal bloom]

gents, is there a way for me to use these mushroom light cards, AND display the lights of the group if I make, eg, a long press ?

when I tap the card, it lights the light group I created

but for the sake of adapting each light one by one, it would be super nice to have the possibility to make a long press on the card, and end up on another card that would list all the lights of the group, anyone knows how I could do that ?

Hello, two simple questions:
Is there any way to simplify this line

background: rgba(255, 191, 0, 0.075);``` to be like "Amber" instead of the whole RGBA code, and keep the transparency?

Also, how would the same if is state but that keeps the state light color INSTEAD of a specific one like in that instance (for smart lightstrips)

I see the use_light_color but idk how to integrate it lol

[wooden stream]

https://pastebin.com/yDCphhzg
First one works, second is the one I'm trying to make work but can't.

Pretty sure this is what I'm messing up: background: rgb({% states('light.candeeiro_hall') %});

Also tried background: 'rgb[[ entity_HERE ]]' but also didn't work

@polar kelp I'm having an issue with cardmod or Lovelace card tools (upstream) blocking this element which prevents videos from becoming full screen

:root:-webkit-full-screen-ancestor {
    overflow: hidden !important;
}

Is this something I can use the browser mod JavaScript service commands to fix? Or apply this style through card mod? These are both workarounds but this is the element that's missing when it should become full screen.

[polar kelp]

I don't really see how that could happen. And anything still using my ancient card-tools should probably be considered obsolete by default.

[shadow vessel]

I made an issue here with videos https://github.com/home-assistant/android/issues/3268

Once card mod is uninstalled it works. (Evidenced by the missing card mod card) My entire dashboard uses cardmod heavily. Almost 5,000 lines. Each card likely uses it with the exception of frigate card.
Here is it working when I uninstall cardmod
https://github.com/home-assistant/android/issues/3268#issuecomment-1407628011

I confirmed with WebView debugging that the element appears when cardmod is uninstalled and the video becomes full screen. With cardmod installed it doesn't appear and the video doesn't become full screen. Something in cardmod blocks the element. It's not an issue for me on Google chrome with or without cardmod installed probably because this element is WebView related?

It also appears when I do the workarounds that seems to make it full screen. Such as changing panel views, minimizing the app and reopening, using picture in picture when minimized or clicking edit dashboard after staring the stream. It's that initial event that requests full screen that is being blocked somehow when cardmod is installed.

Is it easier to just fire a browser mod JavaScript command on tap action for the frigate card to force full screen? I just don't know the browser mod service call syntax for making the video full screen

[vapid field]

Hi, I am sure that I have just missed something obvious entirely but how does one get the profile picture like statuses shown on the phone on the frontpage of the home assistant webpage

No, I have got that part figured out, I am talking about the part that seems to dynamically change around the icon, Away/Home

I'm pretty sure that's a specific card. Google some cards for "person card". I've seen it somewhere but I don't remember it's name.

Having a weird issue where Firefox never remembers the login next day ( with remember my login checkbox ticked). Chrome on the other hand stays logged in for months.

Any ideas where I can look to try and troubleshoot this?

[dawn acorn]

make sure your firefox doesn't delete cookies once closed

it's probably something around cookies, look into all of the fancy privacy features firefox has

[viscid inlet]

it doesn't do it for other sites, but i'll check.

setting not enabled. checking cookie policies and all looks... ok

[dawn acorn]

Are you using standard tracking protection or strict?

[viscid inlet]

standard

i added domain as exception too previously

[dawn acorn]

you don't have any cookie exceptions set to block, do you?

[viscid inlet]

double checked, nothign

in fact HA domain i have added as "allow"

from last time i tried to troubleshoot this issue

[dawn acorn]

you're not on a super old version of HA, are you? I found and an old bug on git but it's very old.

[viscid inlet]

no, it's up to date.

my inovelli switch icons on the dashboard (belonging to light domain) are now black while on, whereas the rest of my light icons remained yellow. does anyone know why that may be the case? i presume it is related to the entity state color change in today's release

anyone know how to get full access to add-on logs? I can see recent ones e.g. for appdaemon in the UI but would like to see older ones when a problem hits. Running appdaemon in the HA add-on within HaOS so don't think I can get direct access to files in its container, but might be wrong?

[dark dirge]

nope. There was a backend feature in the beta to set the precision for an entity, but it was pulled before the 2023.2 release

you would have to create a template sensor to do that now

I can access everything on a different iPhone thats on 15.7.3. I can also access it normally from a PC/Mac browser. Has support for ios 13.5 been removed? Is it possible that the update broke it for older versions?

[vast crane]

I'm sure it wasn't intentionally removed (devs are pretty strict about supporting really old browsers), but something could have broken it by accident.

[warm bolt]

Do I need to manually add resources of I'm in storage mode?

For me it just added them automaticly after i did a HASS restart and then force refreshed my browser

[cyan bobcat]

Yes always been in storage mode (didnt even know that was the name xD)

Yeah storage/yaml etc.... I have like half my stuff in yaml. I just noticed that when I added some new stuff it's not being added to resources any more. Not sure why. I can add it manually. The js files are there. Hacs just isn't adding them automatically if I install something any more. Wasn't sure if that changed

How can I get the start option entity id to change the call-service that already exist in my card?

Is vacuum card a custom card? You may want to file an issue in whatever repository you downloaded it from. Or are you saying that the more-info popup does not work correctly (that would be a frontend issue)?

[mystic timber]

just the script it's using is not correct, I'm trying to extract the start action from the actual robot vacuum button

Then you may have debug logging enabled systemwide

but where, i dont remember do did that 😄

I think maybe "m²" . AFAIK you can use any string you want.

oh wait maybe I'm thinking of unit_of_measurement. I'm not sure what unit: is

by the way, you know how can I extract the start option from the info popup of the vacuum?

[mystic timber]

I'm trying wait

I can't even guess what you mean by "extract".

The more-info will just be rendering stuff based on all the attributes of the vacuum. entity

full brightness it's white

[fallow patrol]

let's see if it will change in 2023.2.1 😀

[cinder mango]

at least the humidity in statsgraf is fixed. yay 🙂

[wind tulip]

Hi, my blank cards show a line now. How to get rid of this?

I mean the two light lines at the top

[fiery ledge]

well, there is no way we could tell.... might as well ask ChatGPT sorry, that is not allowed

[wind tulip]

Urgh. I dont like it...

[fiery ledge]

no seriously, how would you suppose we could help you, if you dont privide the details to begin with

[dawn acorn]

https://share.busheezy.dev/i/Y7w3mR look, I stubbed my toe

[wind tulip]

I am looking for a blank card. Blank card was blank, now there are this lines

[fiery ledge]

what changed? and, what is your definition of a blank card?

custom:button-card? or gap card? or something else.

type: custom:button-card
color_type: blank-card``` works just fine

as would https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card#gap-card

[wind tulip]

I use exactly this. Today, I did some updates and now I have this lines

[kindred anchor]

even if you remove the card and re-add it?

[wind tulip]

same

[magic lodge]

I want to Change the entity name so it displays my own Word

how can i do that?

(Want to replace every "Buienradar" With a separate thing

[vast crane]

https://www.home-assistant.io/dashboards/glance/#name

entities:
  - entity: sensor.b...
    name: Word
  - entity: sensor.b...
    name: Word2

etc

[dark dirge]

#devs_frontend-archived would be better

[willow berry]

Hi, i download the battery card on HACK but i cant see it into my card. What i need to do ?

[silent bloom]

Thanks! That definitely displays lists of players cleanly. One side effect though is that if the count is 0, it breaks the whole markdown card.

[dark dirge]

it depends on what that attribute actually says when there are no players, or if it exists at all

[fallow patrol]

under 2023.2.1 is the same

[dark dirge]

some version of |default([], True) or similar will probably help

[fiery ledge]

Still no idea what you did, or what your config is

[hollow stratus]

why do the configuration editors sometimes switch to right-to-left writing mode while I'm the middle of typing? Is that something I'm accidentally pressing? It's really annoying, I don't know how to turn it off and I have to reload the whole page to fix it

[vast crane]

https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues/10458

been a pretty hot issue for a while. nobody seems to figure it out i think

[hollow stratus]

a firefox issue huh...

I see there's a lot of hot arguing in that issue

[magic lodge]

Is there any way to make a button that you need to press for a couple of seconds?

[silent bloom]

This did work, but only if it came before the join, interestingly. Thanks again!

[dark dirge]

the join is expecting a list, so yeah

[tender mural]

is there a way to switch between these by swiping left or right?

it's really tiring having to put my finger all the way up there

My hands are too small for this lmao

[charred shale]

Hi everyone , does someone know how to implement a fixed footer that would be maintained on all pages? like a tab-bar in a mobile app

[tardy aspen]

On my 3d floorpanel, when i click anywhere on the screen it opens the setting for this lamp, how can i fix this ?

[tawny cloak]

One of the main reasons to use an external editor for YAML maintenance. The other is that the YAML window is ususally too small (and narrow) for a good overview.

[tawny cloak]

I've done several attempts... It takes just a couple of lines in HTML/CSS but it cannot be done from HA since HA already uses these HTML/CSS settings for its own purposes.

[wicked bone]

How do i get the statistics card to show the consumption for each day? (Not the accumulated value) https://quad.pe/e/vkSk9TD32l.png

[tidal dirge]

  - change

I believe

[wicked bone]

thanks!

[jagged cliff]

Any solutions on light state color changed after the 2023.2 update. On state earlier it was yellow now it’s white.

[sudden lotus]

is there a graph card that can display less than an hour?

built in or HACS

[vast crane]

The default history graph card actually now supports any time amount, I think this went in to 2023.01 or 2023.02, not sure.
The field says "hours_to_show", but you can enter something like 0.1. The box will turn red and angry, but it still works.

[frank ocean]

How do you enable pinch zoom for the camera card?

[sudden lotus]

cool thanks

[frank ocean]

It's in the companion app settings.

hey cool people! i'm working on a lovelace dashboard at the moment in a grid card in panel mode, does anyone know if there's a way to buffer the edges so the cards aren't shoved up against the edge of the screen please? thanks in advance!

[charred pollen]

easy question I hope, how can I make a wide card above like on this dashboard (not the presence cards, but just a full width card) https://external-preview.redd.it/7bg3MQcyMycUAHbszZL7c6KGMke4OM0TjwKFkJDeynA.png?auto=webp&v=enabled&s=0dec2acace3cdbd1292560eb3ece416a4144b7e6

[charred pollen]

yes

[lyric wedge]

Morning; anyone know or heard of a native Linux HA client to display a dashboard, that is not a web browser?

[swift crystal]

if i was doing that I would have something like:
Vertical stack (in panel mode)

• Badges (i think that's what the circle things are called)
• Grid
  • within that grid you can put other stacks and cards in to your heart's contempt

[charred pollen]

ok thank you for your help, will try that way!

[limpid carbon]

Having an issue using Dwains Dashboard. I have it installed, and I am attempting to add a card with a blueprint. When I click to add a card, it brings up this menu with no option to add the yaml code to it. I've tried clearing my browser cache, tried restarting HA, and tried disabling and enablding Dwains again. Am I missing something?

[fading otter]

Using the banner card, the switch on light doesn’t show up. Any ideas why? Just using the basic example

[low vapor]

So this is the best dashboard that I have created and want to make something better but am clueless in yaml so any ideas where I can start

[fading otter]

This helped me a lot https://youtu.be/gouMnPxYHDc

[low vapor]

Want something more than that

Already tried that and didn't like it

Want something like the adaptive dashboard that's available but have no idea on how to use it

[sleek grove]

how can i change where the ui minimalist cards are? i know that its yaml and they are stacked on top of each other or whatever you call it but mines just spacing out weird

[final forge]

ok so im doing the HA floor plan. where should the files be? images is in www right but what name of yaml files and where does the yaml files go?

[sleek grove]

can someone help me? the spacing is so weird everywhere

this is the yaml for that page

[sour widget]

Is it possible to use a template which returns a list of entities in dashboards entities-card ( type: entities entities: {{template | list}} ) <- Documentation says: A list of entity IDs or entity objects or special row objects (see below).

maybe there is an third party alternative ?

[azure canopy]

the custom card auto-entities can do that

[slim pelican]

Anyone know why when I customize the sidebar to remove a couple items then I logout and back it it resets it?

[dark dirge]

It's stored with your login session

[slim pelican]

so theres no way to persist a custom sidebar? I'll always lose it when I logout and back in?

[sour widget]

works great, thx

[dark dirge]

yes. do you do that a lot?

[slim pelican]

I want to setup a HA instance for someone else to use under their own login and they dont need to see all the sidebar entries

[final forge]

I cannot get a toggle to work in picture elements. ive created the picture overlays. now i did the toggle , positioned it right. press done. i cant click on it, nothing happends?

[final forge]

would be endlessly helpful if anyone could help me out. i get it to it changes the image when i light up or light down the lamp. but i cant get it to trigger the toggle action when i press in the image.

[faint vortex]

Hey, is it possible to modify the sidebar to add an iframe using the docker version how the OS version adds them for the addons?

Any tutorial or something on how to use matt8707 homekit inspired dashboard?

Is there a way to get the Lovelace dashboard page shown when the iOS app opens to reset to the main dashboard after an amount of time?

Every time I open the app I have to navigate back to my “home” main dashboard from whatever sub menu / entity etc I was last adjusting.

[lyric prairie]

You can put everything in one vertical-stack to create just 1 column or look for layout-card in HACS for even better spacing control

[vapid field]

Is it possible to create a shortcut on my iOS desktop to a specific tab in one of my dashboards? When I create a shortcut from Safari, and put it on my desktop, HA always opens the first tab from the first dashboard, and not the one I was trying to shortcut to

what does this mean am trying to configure a dashboard

Is there a way to make the markdown card on the bottom take up a half width just like the button cards above?

something with stacks could do it

I'll have to try that out. Thanks

Hi all. Could anyone explain how to get yellow icons when the light is on? Changed from yellow to white with 2023.2.. thanks...

[sleek grove]

could someone help me?

[solemn field]

Hi, whats the exact problem you're having?

From what I'm seeing you need to use horizontal cards, but I'm not sure if that's what ur taling about

[sleek grove]

id like the cards to be centered but they are spacing of them is rather odd

it makes no sense

[sleek grove]

.

[lucid merlin]

is there a card that i can have like tabs or something in that has my lights for each room that i can control from that tab. i would like to switch between the rooms and turn liights on and off with that card. \

[solemn field]

hmm thats weird, not sure how to do that

could you send me the top bar code thing tho :D

[solemn field]

i'd suggest just using the home assistant tabs and adding buttons to navigate

[solemn field]

this video might help you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gouMnPxYHDc

[idle current]

after clicking a navigate button, is it possible to embed a gif or a short video before navigating to a subview

[solemn field]

you could try to navigate to a different page which shows the gif, not sure how to make it navigate away again

google it ig lol

[idle current]

lol

belivr me I did but thanks anyway

this was my past hope

last*

maybe can trigger a navigate automation if there is such a thing 🙂

[simple grotto]

Is there to have Less than for Conditional Card? There's only state_not and state: which doesn't help when I need '< 10'

[solemn field]

hmm yea maybe

[solemn field]

not sure if this will help you, but you can try using templates: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/template/

this video explains it quite well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQqfxunEbow

[simple grotto]

yeah I figureed I could do that - just seems unnecessary. I've had a google and seen people trying to do a PR to get 'above' and 'below' states in 2021 but it fizzled out

[solemn field]

Hmm yea it might, but i cant think of another option if you dont want to completely customcode it

there might be something im forgetting tho

[simple grotto]

thanks Paul .. I mean Danny 😉

[solemn field]

hehe

[graceful ether]

does somebody know a graph card like mini-graph-card but that can add entities value instead of averaging them ? I would like to have a power consumption card, showing stacked consumption

[stuck saddle]

Tried apex charts?

[graceful ether]

https://github.com/RomRider/apexcharts-card
no but i will

[solemn field]

https://i.imgur.com/qxB42L5.png

something like this

my power stuff is offline so its empty, but you get the idea :P

[graceful ether]

yea :)
Right now it's showing ~500w instead of ~1000w because it's not adding the 2.
hopefully there is an option for it on this custom card

[solemn field]

there are infinite options so probably

[graceful ether]

got it, the stacked option look to do what i wanted

[solemn field]

welp there ya go

[graceful ether]

Thank you :)
My ui is an horrible mess, but at least it's usefull
I will need to clean it up at some point, watch some guide on good ui/ux practice :D

[solemn field]

this video really helped me design a beutiful dashboard fpr mobile: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gouMnPxYHDc

https://i.imgur.com/HgOuzPe.png

this is my personal end-result

[graceful ether]

i've seen it, but i have a hard time not showing everything XD

[solemn field]

(dont look at desktop view tho, we dont talk about that)

[graceful ether]

i have a wall tablet ... i need to make one for it to ><

[solemn field]

you can use it as a baseplate

this especially is a very good recommendation: https://github.com/piitaya/lovelace-mushroom

they have all sorts of cards and other jazz

[graceful ether]

i over-use popup to have less button on the screen but still allow me to control each light ... but for the main room that's 10 light, it take so much space

using it already :D

[solemn field]

you could make some scripts to have quick actions ig

but eh if it aint broke dont fix it

[graceful ether]

can't easily send a screenshot sadly, no account on anything, but i'll upload one later tomorow

[solemn field]

you can upload stuff on here if you want: https://imgbb.com/

otherwise i can wait :P

[graceful ether]

that's the issue
I don't want quick action (lie, i already have some XD) but i want to control each one individualy if i "need" to

which i will never

but i "need" to have the option XD

i'm really not a ui personne

https://ibb.co/C8xZkrZ

[stuck saddle]

How you do the popups just wondering

[graceful ether]

https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-browser_mod

[stuck saddle]

Yeah nvm then i know 🤪

I hate the touch the screen image after a while

[graceful ether]

https://ibb.co/BN7nWBZ

[solemn field]

looks good!

[solemn field]

looks a bit wonky tbh lol

not centered

[graceful ether]

that's my screenshoot

i'm on a ultra wide

so ... i crop

[solemn field]

aha

[stuck saddle]

Look fine, what about you inactivity? With browsermod..

Your*

[graceful ether]

what do you mean ?

[solemn field]

oh i wish we had more smart heaters that actually worked

[graceful ether]

mine don't, i need to try several addon that claim to fix thermostat because those Daikin heatpump are WAAAAAY off

[stuck saddle]

When your screen has been off for a while and then theres a logo in the corner...

[graceful ether]

like 10°c some time

[solemn field]

mine are from some random chinese company with an app noone understands

and cant be linked with anything

[graceful ether]

i am sorry, i have no idea what you are talking about :(

[solemn field]

we have some other ones from eurom in the back tho, and they work great

well.. untill the wifi killed itself

[graceful ether]

what are you using ? water based ? toaster ? AC unit ?

[stuck saddle]

https://ibb.co/KVZbyBd

[solemn field]

just like some thing that warms the air

[solemn field]

tape it off

[faint vortex]

how do you get the online players?

[solemn field]

nah there must be something in the config to turn it off right?

[stuck saddle]

Yes only to hide it

Then its just invisible

So when screen goes off and theres no activitie for a while that logo comes when screen goes back on. 🥴

[graceful ether]

i have NEVER seen that @stuck saddle

[silent bloom]

Attribute on the players online but it's null if it's empty. {{ state_attr("sensor.minecraft_server_players_online", "players_list") | default([], True) | join(' ') }}

[stuck saddle]

Youre using a wall mounted tablet right?

[graceful ether]

yup

[stuck saddle]

Screen always on? 🤔

[graceful ether]

not using the app but a web browser under fully kiosk

the screen goes to an always on lock screen, but not hass by itself

[stuck saddle]

Kiosk browser or kiosk single app?

[graceful ether]

browser

[stuck saddle]

Hmm maybe ill try that, i use single app

[graceful ether]

i don't see why it would change a thing tho ...

[stuck saddle]

Yeah me neither 😅

Just weird, somehow my tablet goes inactif

[graceful ether]

but what break when it does ?

only browser mod ?

[stuck saddle]

Browser mod wont work then

Yeah

[graceful ether]

what are you using it for ?

[stuck saddle]

Door bell popup

Tablet back to home screen

[graceful ether]

i only use local popup with action: fire-dom-event, so maybe i also get disconected if i used remote triggered popup

i use the fully kiosk api to change url and what not

[stuck saddle]

Ahh firedom yeah i use it diffrent

[graceful ether]

i have 0 regitered entity in browsermod, no id or anything, not using that section

so that's probably why

[stuck saddle]

Yeah probably

Must be

Little wiser now 🫡

[small lichen]

Does anyone know how to bring up this Browse Media dialog. This one specifically is for an Xbox one and it's accessed by the more-info media player dialog

[graceful ether]

should not be the issue

According to the Browser Mod Settings page, the interaction requirement (clicking on the screen from time to time) is needed for privacy reasons from many browsers before allowing audio playback or video capture
https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-browser_mod/issues/462
Make sure you don't use the media player on the tablet maybe

[stuck saddle]

Yea ive seen it too, just thougt there was no other way, might take a look on how i call those popups

[livid folio]

Evening all!
I don't know the exact terminology for it but I'm looking to remove the 'button press shadow' as seen in the screenshot attached (Scenes)? It occurs when you press/click on an element within Home Assistant. In this case I've used a 'custom:button-card' for the three labels (Scenes, Devices, Floorplan) but it happens on any/all elements.

[stuck saddle]

Look in your theme.yaml

[dusky oyster]

Is it possible to nest a conditional card in a entities card?

So only certain entities appear upon conditions?

[errant plover]

Yes using this https://community.home-assistant.io/t/hui-element-use-built-in-elements-in-the-wrong-place/192154 but there's a better way if you only want the entities to appear rather than a whole conditional card: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities#examples

[silent belfry]

I was trying to add this sensor directly in yaml to the picture card without the camera entity so it will just keeps grabbing the URL from that sensor?
sensor.3d_printer_object_thumbnails contains: http://ip:7125/server/files/gcodes/some/directory1/directory2/.thumbs/SpringNutxyz005-400x300.png
Is there any way to set this @dark dirge said that image field doesn't accept template code is there any other way?

  - show_state: false
    show_name: false
    camera_view: auto
    type: picture-entity
    image: '{{ states("sensor.3d_printer_object_thumbnails") }}'
    entity: sensor.3d_printer_object_thumbnails

[broken marsh]

If I add style: 'video {transform: rotate(-90deg); aspect-ratio: 1}' to a custom:webrtc-camera card, all webrtc-camera cards are rotated, not just the ones with 'style'. Why is that?

[fiery ledge]

hey Tom recognize this: [[[ return (['off','armed_away','armed_home','armed_night','not_home'].includes(entity.state));]]] 😉 made me want to shorten that to a regex checking for the substring 'armed_'. I can make that work however, using any of the techniques on https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_regexp.asp, compare binary template sensor: - unique_id: alarm_armed name: Alarm armed state: > {{'armed_' in states('alarm_control_panel.ha_main_alarm')}} device_class: problem

[fiery ledge]

although this seems to work: [[[ let regex = /armed_/; return ['off','not_home'].includes(entity.state) || regex.test(entity.state); ]]]

[loud glen]

What is the best way to have a switch (on/off) shown in a mini graph card? I want to show humidity combined with the switch (ventilator).

[vast crane]

You can have conditional rows in a stock entities card:
https://www.home-assistant.io/dashboards/entities/#conditional

[tacit cave]

you're all about speed right? If yes, keep it a single collection, don't use regex

regex is slow.

it's always a last resort

[fiery ledge]

ok, good to know. Was merely looking for a way to have that jinja template easily transcoded to javascript, and I couldn't find any other way than using that regex test.

[velvet minnow]

I have a list of entities ['button.samplea', 'button.sampleb'] coming from a sensor template. Is it possible to display those entities dynamincly in the entity card this way?

[fiery ledge]

display dynamically always sounds like custom:auto-entities

[velvet minnow]

https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities 😄 ?

That does like what i need, thanks!

i made a helper to combine the state of several sensors reporting energy usage, now i want a card to display it. The statistics card just accumulates the value, id like to see daily, weekly and monthly consumption. I tried adding the entity to the Individual devices in the energy dashboard but get this error ```The following entities have state class 'measurement' but 'last_reset' is missing````

what are my options?

example of one of the combined entities ``` - name: "IVT Compr cons heating"
device_class: "energy"
state_class: "total_increasing"
state_topic: "xxx/HP/5C55"
unit_of_measurement: "kWh"
icon: mdi:flash`````

can i just add last_reset to none or something

Is there a way to have the history tab always show the last ~day? I guess I could add a history enttity card to a dashboard?

[rancid vortex]

hi, I'm looking to make a button to trigger an input_boolean that would activate the corresponding automation. But every time I get an error.
Here is the code:

              template:
                - card_children
              variables:

[visual basalt]

hi, still need to starting making my own dashboard and been collecting some samples that I like.
I do like the Minimalist UI but if I look at the github repo it doesn't seem very active. commits are a year old. so bit afraid that it will break or will miss out on features/new cards quickly

any thoughts on that?

[fiery ledge]

I'd start doingentity_id: input_boolean.presence_ulysse

though I confess using tap_action: action: call-service service: input_boolean.toggle service_data: entity_id: input_boolean.motion_detection its a bit (terribly) confusing with all of these different syntax options/requirements

[fiery ledge]

minimalist is 'just' a pretty collection of button-card templates really. and yes, its a custom resource. so you'll risk something going astray when HA Frontend updates something. but, you're not alone 😉 it's core custom:button-card is even less frequently updated

[willow berry]

Hi, im using that card but when i try to add a second entity or binary i have a error type: custom:battery-entity entity: '-vacuum.fraz_robot -sensor.front_camera_battery'

this.stateObf is null

[fiery ledge]

thats probably because you dont follow the cards usage instruction. Seems to be a single row card? this is? https://github.com/cbulock/lovelace-battery-entity

[dark dirge]

I can't imagine that entity: '-vacuum.fraz_robot -sensor.front_camera_battery' is correct

[fiery ledge]

you should not make a single string ('. ') out of multiple entities. the card is desinged to use per entity: ```

• type: custom:battery-entity
  entity: sensor.front_door_lock_battery```

[willow berry]

This one i was not able to add it. I cant figure out where to put the ressource config line

[fiery ledge]

eh, so what card Are you using then?

[willow berry]

oups

Battery State Card / Entity Row

[fiery ledge]

well, I dont use it, but it states why it wont work like you do: its an entity row, so single entity per card

https://github.com/benct/lovelace-battery-entity-row has all info on how to configure that

[willow berry]

Well i cant find where to put this code ```resources:

• url: /local/battery-entity.js?v=0.1
  type: module```

[fiery ledge]

using yaml mode? or UI

[willow berry]

in configuration.yaml ?

[fiery ledge]

yes, what is your way of configuring the Dashboard, it says so under lovelace:

would be something like:

lovelace:
  mode: yaml
  resources: !include /config/dashboard/resources.yaml
  dashboards:```

[dark dirge]

are you actually managing your dashboard in YAML mode?

this whole discussion makes me think "no"

[willow berry]

I create a brand new dashboard so yes !

[dark dirge]

only if you configured it in YAML mode

[fiery ledge]

did you add other resources (custom cards) before?

no, we are trying ti figure out if you need to manually add the resource to the resources file (if you use mode: yaml) or, whether you can add it via the UI, because you use UI mode.

what is showing on /config/lovelace/dashboards

if you go there, you can also click the top right 3-dots, to reveal Resources

[willow berry]

Ok so there i have 4 entry

[fiery ledge]

what does it say under configurationmethod for those?

[willow berry]

/local/battery-entity.js?v=0.1 JavaScript Module

So i have my battery thing

[fiery ledge]

you're 1 step ahead 😉 but thats ok, because now we can check if you can add a resource there. Click Add resource,

is that allowed, or do you get a notification stating you use yaml mode

[willow berry]

N so when they asking me for a URL and Ressource Type but i doesnt have the yaml mode option like other place in HA

[fiery ledge]

that means you are not using mode: yaml. which is fine, we just needed to know.. My guess is that path to the resource is not correct. How did you download that? using HACS? or manually

[willow berry]

Manually and put the JS file on my www folder like they said

[fiery ledge]

my advice: create a dedicated /resources folder in you /www folder. Inside that /resources folder, create a dedicated folder per custom card. If anyting goes astray, this will help you keep things tidy. so that would become /config/www/resources/battery-entity/battery-entity.js

ofc, Home Asisistant needs to know of its whereabouts, so you configure that with the line in configuration.yaml, under the lovelace: key. just like I did here #frontend-archived message

make sure the path you use is exactly the same as the path you set in configuration.yaml

[dark dirge]

you only configure the resource there if you're using YAML mode

[willow berry]

Ok so i did the change and create the folder like you recommand. i type that in my configuration.yaml file lovelace: mode: yaml resources: !include /config/www/resources/battery-entity/battery-entity.js dashboards: but i get a Incorrect type. Expected Object

[fiery ledge]

yes, because that is not what I meant, there, you should point to the actual resources.yaml file you use, so, like resources: !include /config/dashboard/resources.yaml

in that resources.yaml file, you list all resources you install, like:```

https://github.com/custom-cards/button-card

#- url: /local/resources/button-card/button-card.js?v=3.5.0-dev.1

• url: /hacsfiles/button-card/button-card.js
  type: module

https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-mod

• url: /local/resources/card-mod/card-mod.js?v=3.1.4

- url: /hacsfiles/lovelace-card-mod/card-mod.js

type: module```

note, the HACS files get downloaded to another folder than your own manual downloads. Ive used both methods in that paste to illustrate that.

So, we can download via HACS, and we can download manually

[willow berry]

Ok i will try to figure out and read again what you said because im confused ! Sorry for my newbiesss on that thing

[fiery ledge]

To be perfectly clear, this is not a must. It is way easier if you Dont use yaml mode, and let the UI take card of everything. Ultimately it is a choice between easy and comfortable (which for starters might be best), and full customization options on the other hand, (which more seasoned users like)

[fiery ledge]

also read https://www.home-assistant.io/dashboards/dashboards/ its a bit hard to find if you dont exactly know what to look for 😉 it explains the yaml mode and resources

[willow berry]

hanks agato your patience and answer !

[fiery ledge]

most welcome, dont hesitate to get back

[green raft]

How do you reference a defined template entity (the selected entity at the top that says "Entity (Used in templates and actions)") in a Mushroom template chip? Have tried this, self and entity.

Also, is it possible to get the icon of the entity? I know there's state.attributes.icon, but that appears to only populate if it's a custom/overridden icon - not when it's using the default device_class icon.

[ancient dome]

Not entirely sure if it's UI or zigbee itself, but when i use the build-in thermostat card with a zigbee controlled fan-coil controller it sometimes glitches when i adjust it and goes all the way to a set temp of 5000 degrees

oh hey, i can post pictures here, this is what i mean

this happens to be better_thermostat, but the issue is the same

[empty owl]

Hello, I'm searching a way to have an automatic slide between dashboards views if there is no touch on the screen for a couple a minutes. Someone have may be already a solution ?

In this way, the tablet is not displaying always the latest dashboard but have a routine to display each views for a minute for instance then switch to the second view etc

I don't find anything already available in HACS or in HA natively. It's a bit a surprise for me 🙂

[runic rune]

Heyo! When i use Stack in card and Dual gauge card in one card, the states on the right gets a dark bouble around them. Is this possible to get rid of? https://imgur.io/KXid7hb

[fiery ledge]

probably by setting background: transparent on those cards. Dont know the Dual gauge card, but does it have its own css settings? If not, you can try card-mod for that

or, stack-in-card itself has some background option in the keep object. Did you check those yet?

[runic rune]

Tried this but did not work

[runic rune]

Tried the keep options too but I could not get this to work either

[fiery ledge]

if you'd share the yaml, we might be able to assist,

[rancid vortex]

thanks, it's ok now ! I thought I had done that!

[runic rune]

What page other than pastebin can i use?

[fiery ledge]

make it as short as possible, like: - type: custom:stack-in-card mode: horizontal cards: - type: gauge entity: sensor.laundry_sensor_temperature - type: entity entity: sensor.laundry_sensor_temperature and it will fit here 😉

btw, I have this in my test now, and dont see any individual border at all...

[wicked bone]

How do i break out the daily increase of an entity that accumulates its value ?

i have an entity that measures consumption i want to see the daily usage of

weekly and monthly too for that matter

[fiery ledge]

go to #integrations-archived and ask about utility 😉 https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/utility_meter/

[wicked bone]

thanks!

@runic rune I converted your message into a file since it's above 15 lines :+1:

[runic rune]

Fine?:)

[runic rune]

Oh. Is it my theme maybe?

https://imgur.io/i4T5rkO

This is without the theme

[fiery ledge]

showing like this here

there is a border in your card, caused by changes in the default theme some time ago. I take those out in my theme, setting ha-card-border-width: 0px

[runic rune]

That is the same here

[fiery ledge]

default theme shows those cards like. so yes, your theme is important. However, you started out with a question on the background....

[runic rune]

Yea its the dark box that appears that is the problem. Looks like the dual gauge card makes a background for the whole card

[fiery ledge]

try a simplified setup like

[runic rune]

Same for my other themes. The two sensors lies on top of the whole card when i use Stack in card

Ill try

[fiery ledge]

can even leave out the background: transparent from that top right button

dark theme:

[runic rune]

This did not help

[runic rune]

How do i use this? Just type it in the code?

[fiery ledge]

yes? just like you do with all your cards?

[runic rune]

Does not do anything for me

cards:
      - type: custom:dual-gauge-card
        title: Strøm
      - type: custom:gap-card
      - square: false
        columns: 1
        type: grid
        cards:
          - show_name: true
            show_icon: false
background: transparent
            type: custom:button-card
            entity: sensor.monthly_cost_leiligheten
            show_state: true
            background: transparent
            name: Kostnad til nå

Like this?

[fiery ledge]

no, that is using the dual gauge card again. try the full card I posted, only change the entities to match yours

[runic rune]

Ill try

Yea that worked fine. Its the dual gauge card that bugs it up

[fiery ledge]

yes, thats my conclusion too: it even overflows the grid

[runic rune]

But the background: transparent could fix it?

[fiery ledge]

or the stack (-in-card or not)

[runic rune]

Even if the sensors are below the dual gauge card, this happens. As long as the dual-gauge-card and stack-in-card is combined, the sensors have the dark box around them

[fiery ledge]

this works for me

[runic rune]

Got it with this:

styles:
card:

• background-color: transparent

Ill check yours too

[runic rune]

That did not do it for me. Maybe because of the theme, but all i needed was to get rid of the background for the two sensors and its good now

Thanks for the help!;)

[fiery ledge]

hmm, without the background: transparent on those custom:button-card s and sliding the dashoard to a very small width, we get this

[runic rune]

https://imgur.io/Wisrixb

[fiery ledge]

which can be fixed indeed by adding that to the button. making this my final suggestion. note I took out some superfluous mods and grid settings

[runic rune]

Got this by adding only this

styles:
card:

• background-color: transparent

[fiery ledge]

background: transparent should be the same

[runic rune]

Strange. Nothing happened here when i used that

Ill save your code tho, just in case I change the layout so it bugs or something

[raw stream]

Hi. I would like to have a view with something like the energy dashboard's choice of time period that would replace the content of cards. In particular, I have sensors which track 30-day and 90-day use differing only by the suffix of their entity_ids: sensor.*_l30d vs _l90d. So I would like to be able to click a 30 vs 90 day button/selector at the top and have all my cards int he view swap the two families of sensors. Is this possible?

[broken marsh]

8 C sounds cold. But could be basement of course.

I was hoping for something more exciting. 🙂

[fiery ledge]

yeah, it's cold .... but, its a Hue sensor, and they're way off 😉 in fact it is a whopping 13.1 degrees.

[mystic timber]

hi, I got reolink Integration with 2 cams installed, when I click on the entity of the camera the stream is smooth and working great. but whenever I add the entity as a card (picture glance) It's not running at all and just showing up a snapshot.

eg will brands icons be bundled wiuth frontend or will they keep some depracated icons for compatibility, ect.

maybe I'm worrying about it too soon

[tawny cloak]

I assume it will be bundled with a different prefix, e.g. ha:home-assistant.

Hi, i have an issue with apexcharts. I use two yaxis which works fine only two little problems occur: please take a look at the highlighted value "Netzbezug" with 10kW. The line in the graph don´t show this value, probably only 2kW. If i switch the order of my entities "Netzbezug" will be OK, but another graph-line has this issue. I don´t find any inconvenience in the config.
Second, the yaxis disappears, if i hide the first series of the related yaxis. Where do i loose the relation between series-entity and yaxis?

[sage pasture]

I don´t understand your question but i could provide you a link: https://smarthomescene.com/guides/apexcharts-card-advanced-graphs-for-your-home-assistant-ui/ This helps me in many cases with apex-charts, unfortunately not in my question in this channel

[real ermine]

I mean I would like to define these limits with helper entities instead of hardcoded values.

[sage pasture]

Sorry, i missed the start of your thread. But if you take look at my link, there is an example with entity values and color_threshold. Using entities for the values itself doesn´t work in my opinion.

Help increasing icon size in Glance card with card mod. This increases the size, but it expands from top left to bottom right rather than expanding radially from the center

I'd have to install the theme first... Right?

[green raft]

Ohh, thought some of those were mushroom cards. Yes you would. It's in the Frontend section in HACS.

As for your other questions - not sure why your climate entity is showing a range. Mine just has a single temperature. And getting the other entity to display the temperature, you probably need a template sensor with the temperature attribute from that entity.

[molten cipher]

Yeah it seems to be default on the ecobee when it's on auto. But the actual Thermostat doesn't show the range... Well it does like deep in the menus.

I guess I don't need it on auto. Because it basically already is.

[timid beacon]

Does anyone else have reliability issues with state switch and auto-entities? I mainly see this on my phone or in fully kiosk, so it's hard to troubleshoot

hi! anyone familiar with custom button-card here? looking for help on how to let it use the default template's stiles for custom button cards...

[fiery ledge]

only if its related to the channel topic.... otherwise go #add-ons-archived

[fiery ledge]

you question is a but cryptic, so please go ahead and describe your issue, and things you tried already

[ripe bison]

Let me try: how can I create a custom button card that uses all colors from active the lovelace template (e.g. background, text, on/off icon color etc.)

[fiery ledge]

what is 'active the lovelace template'? do you mean the active theme? also, what ws the result of your button-card config. Some styling not ok?

[upbeat geyser]

Thanks for the link. I can get the chart to show the entity, but I'd like to use a entity state for the Label part of this:

now:
  show: true
  label: Now

[ripe bison]

yes, active theme is, what I mean. the colors for a switch are for example different from a normal button card. I am looking for an easy way to let it use the same colors

[mystic timber]

hi, what aspect radio should I use if I want to show up picture glances card that showing off my camera in a mobile phone?
thanks!

[fiery ledge]

ok, did you try and set the core state-color vars to the button-card stylings? because that would be the way to go

[ripe bison]

no, I just created a "naked" custom button card and expected it to use the the active theme's colors...

[fiery ledge]

you have to tell custom:button-card what to do. just like it wont use the device_class icon

[silent bloom]

I'm listing the state_attr of an entity in a Markdown Card. How can I make each item a random different color?

[ripe bison]

so by default it does not use any of the existing values and I have to configure every single thing like icon, background color, on/of color etc. etc. etc.?

[fiery ledge]

afraid so yes. Ive got a button_card_template that imports my custom-ui settings for icon and icon_color, but that's of no use for generic cards. It might use the singular icon set in the UI, or entity properties. I does not take anything else into account for those entities.

though it does use the generic card settings. background etc. just give it a try

[ripe bison]

pretty much effort to just maintain the status quo... is there a better way to get cards that can display a secondary info? my use case: i have a switch for my coffee machine. i have a logic that tells me if the coffee machine has finished heating up and then a helper switch gets switched on. i want to use one single card to switch the machine on/off and let this switch also show if the machine is ready or not...

[silent bloom]

I've found a combination of conditional cards and markdown can achieve quite a bit.

Open questions I have:

• center icon with card mod in Glance Card when scaling the image to be larger
• random font colors for each state attr with markdown card or card mod see below
• custom button card: hide row in grid if no elements Turns out you have to not write broken YAML (I dropped "card:")

[atomic canopy]

Is there a way to hide the entities in your energy dashboard, that have a value of 0?

[ripe bison]

i think you have to create a new one in lovelace - there are all elements of the energy dashboard available as separate cards

I try to generalise some stuff with helpers, so I would not need to hard-code some charts values every time I use those (like target humidity, or different boundary values for colouring). Unfortunately, all the charts that I find nice accept min/max and those boundaries as numbers, so there's no way I could use for example a template to get the value from a helper. Do you know any workaround for such situation?

Do the vars no longer start with rgb?

Though I'm not sure why I was using that anyways

Interesting, seems like a lot of device classes don't have a color?

Hi all, I have some custom climate entities created through the smartir integration that seem to work very well and show up in the default entities card with current temp and current humidity displayed, however, when trying a couple of custom cards https://github.com/nervetattoo/simple-thermostat and https://github.com/KartoffelToby/better-thermostat-ui-card the humidity doesn't show up in either and looking at the doco it seems it should just show up? (the default HA thermostat card infamously doesn't support showing humidity....)
Anyone know if there's anything obvious I'm missing?
this is what one of my climate entities looks like in code:

# After BroadLink remotes are configured as new integrations, add them below
smartir:
climate:
  - platform: smartir
    name: Office AC
    unique_id: office_ac
    device_code: 1469
    controller_data: remote.office_rm4_mini
    temperature_sensor: sensor.office_rm4_mini_temperature
    humidity_sensor: sensor.office_rm4_mini_humidity
    # power_sensor: N/A```

Good morning, I have updated my sensors from min/max to the group sensor helper, as recommended on the update.
What's happening now is that instead of having the temperatures showing like 18.5ºC they're showing like 18.588888888888888889ºC.
Is there any general way to fix all sensors at once and make them show with just 2 numbers after the , or do I need to do this individually on the UI, card by card?

I assume to make this work on the UI some sort of |round(2) needs to be added

[gusty glen]

Hey all, my smartmeter sometimes sends glitched values. I have now added some arresting code so the issue wont happen again, however my statistics are ruined by one spiked measurement as you can see in the screenshot.

How would I go to fix this? I certainly never used 2+ MW in my house 😅

Hey there, I apologise in advance for what is probably a very stupid question. I've just started building out a dashboard using minimalist and all is good except I can't find any cards that enable the pressing of a simple button outside of the scenes card.

[vapid field]

Hi there, using mushroom and macosthene since a long time. I really would like to get the cards transparent again, but I can not find where to add it. If I remember there was a general parameter for this. Googled more than 2 hours, and tried different settings, but it is not working. Thanks a lot.

[wooden stream]

Hello, I-m using this so just add this bit per card and you'll hide the background.
Not sure if this is what you want, but likely is:
card_mod: style: | ha-card { box-shadow: none; background: rgba(0,0,0,0); text-align: center; }

I add it right at the end of the car I want to make transparent. And it just works 😄

(Use minimalist and mushroom cards, so it works for both). Likely you'll need the card-mod HACS repository, but I'm assuming you already do.

[wooden stream]

Still needing help with this pls.

[vast crane]

did you look in the statistics tables? There is state table and separate statistics tables.

With a config template card, how do I decide the order of the entities if I have multiple entities in a graph?

sorry on a card.

card:
  type: history-graph
  entities:
    - entity: switch.floor_heating_socket
    - entity: climate.incomfort_1

No matter what order I put the two entities in the code, they are in the same order on the card

[tribal galleon]

Another option for adding date & time is to enable the Time & Date integration which creates sensor entities for the date and time in different formats. https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/time_date/
You can create your own customized sensor in configuration.yaml (similar to what @vast crane mentioned). Check out https://docs.python.org/3/library/time.html#time.strftime for the syntax. I use

sensor:
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      dashboard_date:
        friendly_name: ddd m-d
        value_template: "{{ now().timestamp() | timestamp_custom('%a  %-m-%-d') }}"
        icon_template: mdi:calendar-clock
``` and then use those sensors in a *custom:button-card*s to match the rest of my dashboard.

[warm bolt]

Oh. That's good idea all

I am facing this issue with gauge card in case of power outage I cannot click on the gauge card and view the history as it says Entity is currently unavailable. I have used bar card and this issue does not affect bar card as I can click on bar card and view history even in case of power outage. Such feature with gauge card is needed so I can click and view the history in case of power outage. Screenshot is attached (left screenshot is with power outage).

[vast crane]

You could file a feature request if you want (not sure how it would be received), my other idea is maybe use conditional card to show gauge when it is available, and entity card when it is unavailable?

[small lichen]

I'm using a mushroom title card. Is there any way to center it?

You can either use alignment: center command or edit title card and select Center instead of Default alignment.

Hi all, is there a way how to achieve following scenario on picture element card? tap_action -> more-info of entity 1, hold_action -> more-info of entity 2

Something weird is happening. I've installed some new cards through HACS yesterday, restarted HA, emptied browser cache, but they are still not showing up. Anything else I can do?

Can you share the YAML? Maybe try changing the curve in series and/or chart_type

Anyone know how to fix climate entity. with just icon? I have an icon with climate object tap action is toggle. It works. Turns the climate control from off to cool (or previously selected mode) .. But the icon doesn't change color if it's running or not.

- show_name: true
        show_icon: true
        type: button
        tap_action:
          action: toggle
        entity: climate.midea_ac_141837000057408
        name: AC
        icon: mdi:air-conditioner
        icon_height: 30px

try something like:

        state:
          - color: rgb(255,0,0)
            operator: '=='
            value: 'off'
            icon: mdi:home-outline
          - color: rgb(0,255,0)
            operator: '=='
            value: 'on'
            icon: mdi:home

@sterile smelt I converted your message into a file since it's above 15 lines :+1:

[sterile smelt]

It's using the default icon for both.. instances.. maybe the "value" is different?

[tribal galleon]

might be a true or false? IIRC, HA associates on of the same states ( true = on = yes). sometimes...?

can this kind of thing be used for a cover position as well? I want the custom button card to change if the cover position is > 62 can I replace color with position in your example?
