i am aware of the pihole issue, the other bit confuses me
split granite
I'd say you've configured NGINX to use HTTPS to connect to HA?
split granite
Well, looks like HA isn't configured for SSL 😉
Also it's on a different port
Unless you've got another proxy in the way
kind shellBOT
kind shellBOT
split granite
So... HA should be on 8123, as you had previously shown
If you haven't configured it for SSL, you can't connect to it with SSL 🤦
proper latch
It is currently set up on 443
on both sides
i was testing it on 8123
did not work
so returned to 443
split granite
Well, https: is the problem
proper latch
the last one known to work
split granite
The port isn't your problem 😉
proper latch
sooo
split granite
Move it back to 8123
proper latch
how do i make the nginx conf behave
split granite
proxy_pass http://10.10.80.6:8123;
``` 🎉okay
split granite
Your problem is you've told NGINX to talk SSL, and HA to talk PLAIN
proper latch
can it still have input in ssl?
split granite
Sure, in NGINX
SSL -> NGINX:443 <--PLAIN--> HA:8123
That's a perfectly normal config
proper latch
listen 443 ssl;
listen 10.10.80.6:443 ssl;
server_name homeassistant.leander.media;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/certificates/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/certificates/privkey.pem;
location / {
proxy_pass https://10.10.80.6:443;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
so i change that ssl out from the 2nd row
split granite
YES
proper latch
but if ha speaks in clear?
shoud i not take the ssl out
as it currently is?
or am i understanding something super wrong
proper latch
okay
split granite
You speak Federation (plain)
Your friend speaks Klingon (SSL)
To communicate you need a translator (NGINX)
proper latch
okay
server {
listen 443 ssl;
listen 10.10.80.6:443 ssl;
server_name homeassistant.leander.media;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/certificates/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/certificates/privkey.pem;
location / {
proxy_pass http://10.10.80.6:8123;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
}
}
so this
is now good
split granite
assuming you move HA back to 8123 yes
proper latch
and HA is now set to be listening to 8123
and xforwardedtrue
I still get a bad gateway
from nginx
Ha log no longer has issues
it's just inaccessible
split granite
Now you can check both logs to see what's going on
Check that you can connect directly to HA
proper latch
I can not
split granite
Well, then you need to fix that 😉
split granite
http://10.10.80.6:8123
``` should be workingBasically means that NGINX isn't able to talk to HA
Double check your proxy_pass line
Restart NGINX
proper latch
I didn't do that
thank you
but i also didn't realise what else needed to be done
that being only the proxy line changed
thank you
I have been struggling for 3 hours
no wait what
I get the login screen
but then it says unable to connect
split granite

homeassistant log has nothing

no new errors in error log
it creates a token every time i log in
but i can't connect using it
and it sees my gateway as the connecting party

Anyone able to add a custom card via the UI manual card config without any raw editing?

That is only possible if the dev added it to the selector, and provides an ediror for all the options.

Hi all. i'm trying to lovelace back to auto. I went and added lovelace:
mode: yaml as it says to here: https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/yaml-mode/ I also added the ui-lovelace.yaml and I'm getting an error in startup saying Invalid config
The following integrations and platforms could not be set up:

Please check your config.
i think the instructions are outdated
anyone know how to do this?
split granite
That's not how you get it to auto mode 😉
hollow urchin
well i was doing that to do the opposite..
it says if you want to undo it then delete all that.. i figured if i did it the interface would pop back to defaults
split granite
Removing .storage/lovelace should do what you want
hollow urchin
yes
split granite
Then SSH on and look in /config/ - ls -a
hollow urchin
is that really the only way.. not through ftp or smb
split granite
It's there on SMB too
You may just have to fix your Windows Explorer settings to show "hidden" files
FTP, same deal
hollow urchin
great i cant get smb to work only ftp
hollow urchin
lol
well ive had a hell of a time trying to get SMB working and i finally bit the bullet and install the ftp addon and its working.. figures i cant do everything via ftp
as it seems im really going to need SMB to work.. so let me ask you

Open the raw editor, remove everything, save

Then you haven't yet configured HTTPS

Did you port forward 443?

Odds are:
- You didn't run a config check

Has anyone here any hands on experience with the mini-graph-card plugin? I have noticed an issue with multiple entities and wanted to see if anyone had overcome it.
gilded thicket
Anyone utilizing the card-layout plugin? I'm trying to figure out how to better design the interface using the grid layout, but having it be responsive at the same time. I tried using vertical layout, horizontal, and the auto layout, but when I want things specifically placed on a bigger screen, it's hard to do with what I'm trying to accomplish. (i posted on the community as well) https://community.home-assistant.io/t/layout-card-take-control-of-where-your-cards-end-up/147805/83?u=ndcallahan
fleet barn
I am just now getting into it. I am having similar trouble. If I fix it ill let you know.
gilded thicket
Yeah, The other layout formats would be fine for most things, but not when it comes to a "dashboard" type system. I like the ability to be able to specify where things go, but collapse too.
fleet barn
What I have done, is just created different screens and have them open with different devices lol
Its a work around, nothing more.
gilded thicket
different screens?
fleet barn
Different Lovelace views. I have the main view as the one that launches with my phone. Its built to be a mobile view, and what displays changes based on context cues. Such as if I am home or if its after sunset.
Then I have one that is meant for large views. (TV monitors) and another one for my tablets on the walls.
gilded thicket
Ohhh. yeahh!!!
I see what you're saying.
Sorry, it took me a minute
That's what I'm oing currently.
fleet barn
I understand what you want, and I would like that too, but for now that gets me by lol
gilded thicket
yep yep.
I have a desktop/phone view
and now, i'm working on a tablet view
we have a tablet we're putting on the wall, so, lol. this layout-card sounded like a good option, but I just can't get it to work like i wanted to. I wanted it to be my "default"
for tablet / mobile

@fleet barn , do you know much about the gridcol and gridrows? Like what all does it accept?
fleet barn
I am playing with it right now actually. I don't know much yet.
I am just messing with an example, ill send a screenshot soon.
gilded thicket
Great. I'm ending up setting each of them to auto because I am not fully getting the functionality of them. I see it's based of css grids, but as a web developer we hardly use those anymore. we end up using bootstrap. lol.
like. i'm wondering if there's a number for each row/column or if it's a max of three parameters
vapid field
hello i have been unable to connect to the frontend for almost two weeks now. I have researched a ton so I have learned bits and pieces of things but I cannot nail down the issue here. Is there a command that will show me the errors. I'm brand new and love the idea of having a local server and one app communicate with everything. But Im a little over my head here. This is my last go round before I start over from scratch all around. Oh and its an Ubuntu 18.04 with Docker install of Homeassistant 108.1...thank you in advance for any advice.
gilded thicket
@fleet barn , it actually appears that those two allow many. like if there are 4 rows, you can have a set width for each row, same for columns. that's a little more helpful. definitely doesn't help the responsive layout issue though. 🙂
fleet barn
Thanks bud. I think I have a pretty good handle of it. But its going to take some playing around. Here is a snip of something more or less working.

Hey I've always wondered - why do lovelace cards jump around all over the place when ordering? My first card is only taking up about 1/3 of the first column, with nothing underneath...if I move the top card from the second column up, I'd expect now the first column to consist of two cards...nope!
cards from column 2 all shit over to the first column and my 1st card is now in position 4
*shift. But sort of a freudian slip.

I cant get the map history up and running. And yes I have configured the "hours_to_show". It is just not shown. What can I do or check? Any other setting which prevents this feature, like history includes/excludes or so?
split granite
You're configuring the map card not the map: integration?
worthy kiln
yes
split granite
You're not excluding the device trackers from history/recorder?
worthy kiln
I excluded it yes
split granite
Well... there's your problem
worthy kiln
so that is the reason probably
split granite
How can it show the history of something that has no history?
vapid field
you can configure recorder, so it will purge a specified amount of data on certain times
split granite
Just configure it to purge the data after ... 3 days 🤷
But, if you want a history of something, you need the history of it

When trying to add js resources to a Lovelace card in the raw config, I get a message saying Resources should no longer be added to the Lovelace configuration but can be added in the Lovelace config panel.. Does it mean adding in the card configuration code editor?
I'm trying to implement https://github.com/bokub/rgb-light-card, but the Installation says to add the resources bit to the Lovelace config, but Lovelace says not to.
wheat current
Lovelace is correct
split granite
Almost like the docs for that custom card are outdated...
thin mist
So where is the "Lovelace config panel" that is not the "Lovelace configuration"?
thin mist
Advanced is on, yet no Resources section in the Configuration section
wheat current
"Lovelace dashboards" -> "Resources"
thin mist
I'm looking there too, no dice
wheat current
or just use HACS 🤷♂️
thin mist
I do have HACS, that's how I got that RBG Light Card
So it handles setting the resources itself?

Ok, so Add to Lovelace will add the resources correctly?

Hi Folks, I just updated my ha from my RP3 to a docker container. I hadnt updated in a while and I didnt just copy paste my entire .homeassistant folder to overwrite the new one. I figured it may be worth while trying to do a smart migration.

Hey guys! I'm trying to move my ui-lovelace.yaml to dashboards. I copied my ui-lovelace.yaml configuration to a overview.yaml in config/frontend/dashboards/overview.yaml and added this dashboards: lovelace-overview: # Needs to contain a hyphen (-) mode: yaml filename: ../frontend/dashboards/overview.yaml title: Overview icon: mdi:view-dashboard show_in_sidebar: true require_admin: false to my config/integrations/lovelace.yaml file. The new dashboard shows up in the http://hassio.local:8123/lovelace but it is a generated dashboard that looks exactly like my HA generated ui. In configuration>Lovelace Dashboards/Dashboards I can see the filename it is looking for is frontenddashboardsoverview.yaml whick make me think that the issue is in getting to the overview.yaml from the lovelace.yaml file. Any advice or something that I can try to get it working?

Ensure the path is actually valid - I'd be shocked if that path worked
That directs it to something outside of your config folder

@tired quail only idea I have for a picture frame (assuming you have the files local) is to use https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/local_file/ and periodically update the file

@worldly seal What if you just make it overview.yaml in the config folder?

For that, I would probably just create a custom panel
mild veldt
can you activate a panel via automation?

automation wouldn't be the right way to activate it though, it would be different for the tablets based on when the last tap was

nothing like that in ll

My yaml ui is displayed correctly if I move my overview.yaml into my config/ folder. So it seems like the dashboard>filename does not support file navigation

how would I show all unavailable entities in the light domain as long as they have the strings lap or light in the entity_id using auto-entities.. none of what I can get to work quite does that because it would have to work without the exclude filter I think
it seems like you can only filter out entities one at a time as they pop up and they don't match those criteria rather than creating a broad rule
filter:
include:
- domain: light
state: "unavailable"
exclude:
- entity_id: "*led*"
- entity_id: "*range*"
- entity_id: "*router*"
as far as I can tell there's no way to have essentially an AND for the includes rather than an OR

Any ideas why http://localhost:8123 resolves but using my domain.duckdns:8123 doesnt work, nor does my internal ip work, nor does accessing from a different computer work
it allows me to login, but then just says unable to connect to home assistant
never gets passed the login screen
WebSocket connection to 'wss://mydomainname.duckdns.org:8123/api/websocket' failed: Error in connection establishment: net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT

that's what i get if i inspect
i can access it if i go to https://192.168.1.237:8123 and log in

Hey< i guess this is a frontend question... I've searched and searched for custom cards that show the secondary pages of fans and color lights in the card, in stead of having to click twice to set the speed of a fan. What am I missing?
Does this have to be done with an automation somehow? I guess that would take creating a custom card with a .js from some where. I did this back in teh day in tasker on my phone.
But I am really brand new at this lovelace and I don't want to go reinventing the wheel
@warm eagle Isn't thre a trusted domain setting?
homeassistant:
auth_providers:
- type: trusted_networks
trusted_networks:
- 192.168.0.0/24
- fd00::/8
I use a buttons row for fan speeds

If I use yaml mode in my default homeview, and I create a new dashboard from configuration ->lovelace dashboards. Can I take control of just that dashboard to try UI-edit. Or is my default view is affected too?

You can mix YAML and non-YAML

Hi guys. I have some custom components. They working well, but take time to load when I refresh my HA page. It doesn't matther if I'm on home page or any tab, it takes some millisecons to load every time I refresh page (it happen on computer and mobile and different browsers), and you can see the "original" styles, before the custom components shows. If you take a look at the GIF, you can see that before they load, you see original settings. If you take a look at header, it's red and show hours (custom header component), but when I refresh, it show original title "Tests" and the original blue color. It happen with every custom component. It happen with you guys too? its very annoying 😦

Hi all,
Just dipping my feet into home assistant and Lovelace and setting up my first cards.
Trying to make a simple horizontal stack that has my Tado radiator temps listed, so have done the below card config:
https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/PYz73KbTVQ/
Can anyone explain why the secondary_info item is returning:
Expected a value of type undefinedforsecondary_infobut received"current.temperature".
I know it’ll be stupidly obvious, just banging my head a bit!
PS know there’s a thermostat card that does a lot of this, just keen to understand the mechanics, hence playing around!

So I am using mini music player, and really like it, but I have one issue. I want the album art to be displayed like this (https://i.renami.xyz/nfUsb), not like this (https://i.renami.xyz/lUwak). Can anyone help me with that?
The first image is of the lovelace default music player, and the second is of mini music player.

Im trying to install a theme from HACS. the docs say add this to the yaml frontend: themes: !include_dir_merge_named ../themes
woven jasper
@candid lintel are you on supervised or something else?
candid lintel
I dont know what that means, i just have regular HA
woven jasper
so on docker?
candid lintel
RaspberryPi4 no docker
woven jasper
okay
so you have the supervisor icon in the bottom left corner of the website, right?
woven jasper
yeah
candid lintel
ah had no idea
woven jasper
HACS will be storing your themes in the 'themes' folder inside config
candid lintel
okay cool so create a golder called themes in the cofig folder, yea?
woven jasper
so open your configuration.yaml and add the following:
frontend:
themes: !include_dir_merge_named themes
I believe that hacs should have made one automatically when you installed the theme
candid lintel
cool restarting now

Nice
candid lintel
Hot Dog! that did it thank you RenAmi!!!

Do i have to add a component if i want a custom header?
because i added this to my yaml and it said Component error: custom_header - Integration 'custom_header' not found. custom_header: compact_mode: true background: var(--app-header-background-color) elements_color: var(--app-header-text-color) active_tab_color: var(--state-icon-active-color) tab_indicator_color: var(--state-icon-active-color)
woven jasper
So if you have custom-header installed, it would be recommended to add it to the top of your lovelace.
woven jasper
Yeah
candid lintel
sweet
woven jasper
It is useful if you are using something like a tablet for a smart display, and want a kiosk mode where you can only access lovelace.
It is also just great to customise.
candid lintel
i think i installed it

ok
candid lintel
it looks like I installed it, what's the next step - to go to lovelace and mess with the cards, or should i see a change immediately?

those gaps aren't 'unknown'
they are simply without a value at all
Should I make a template sensor to replace having no value with having 'Unknown'?
Or is there a more elegant way?

Moved my ui-lovelace.yaml to a "dashboard" in 0.108.4 as ui-default.yaml.
- The file is only found if it lives in /config. Pathnames fail. According to the Lovelace Configuration page, the file path is lovelaceui-default.yaml, not lovelace/ui-default.yaml. Hence I get a default badges page.

what would you call a room with a closed door? if the door was locked it would be a "locked room", but "closed room" sounds weird to me...
zinc gorge
door_state != occupancy_state @viral sorrel. Probably why it sounds weird
what about "available" and "unavailable"? @viral sorrel
viral sorrel
@zinc gorge I never said it did. but movement inside a room with a closed door does indicate occupancy
zinc gorge
you're asking what the "room state" is based on a door. That's why I'm pointing out why those terms might sound odd
split granite
A room with a closed door is a room with a closed door, the overall status of the room is no different IMO
viral sorrel
I don't think I even mentioned occupancy until you did 😛
zinc gorge
fair
viral sorrel
@split granite that was what I was thinking.. but there is the concept of a locked room
split granite
Because at that point the room is "special"
viral sorrel
hmm.. that's fair.
split granite
Simply closing a door doesn't change the state of the room, you can trivially open the door
Locking it, that makes it "secure" (except for the open window)
Of course, a "locked room" implies it's secured, not simply that one door is locked
viral sorrel
I have that problem with doors in general.. closed vs locked.. but that's because it's damn hard to sense locked 😛
split granite
Nah, you just need a sensor inside the frame, where the lock barrel goes
viral sorrel
that's not trivial 😛
and with most internal doors the locking mechanism is in the handle
split granite
Yeah, those require more effort
viral sorrel
I though a positional sensor would work.. but it would have to be very small and wireless... one day...
does the frontend have any special way of indicating occupancy? there are motion and closed/open icons.. anything for occupancy?
seems like a difficult concept to illustrate with an icon
viral sorrel
changing the colour works for a house.. but a room icon is a little harder 😛 googling I haven't found anything.. possibly the "opening" icons but reversed would make the most sense. I guess that's the least of my problems until I get something actually working..
split granite
Maybe it's time to change how you're displaying things then 😉
For that kind of thing, something like Floorplan makes more sense
viral sorrel
I know.. I've been wanting to try that for ages... but it's a huge time investment to get something usable.. a project for June/July
well.. whenever I have a bit of a break
split granite
Huge time investment... a few hours 🤔

a few hours is a lot for me.. but it would be more like a dozen hours..

Hi all, I have installed some custom themes in HA 0.108.6, I notice that some of the variables have either changed or are new. For instance, my sidebar background would not update. I found that "sidebar-background-color:" line was not present in the themes.yaml file. I am now noticing that other items are also not updating. Is there a master list of all of the items that can be adjusted (say for the default theme) so that I can compare my theme and update the missing/changed lines as needed?

never really done anything with templates also
split granite
You'd have to create something
The point is, you appear to be wanting something that looks like a cover
So, you have to wrap the whatever that is with a template cover
This though is more #integrations-archived territory

Hi. I have one server who is controling my tv. If i put in a browser for example http://server.ip:port/hdmi2 tv changes to source hdmi2. Can some one write me a button that would send this url to server. I tried webpage, but because it refreshes when you open dashboard, command always applies. But i want to execute just on tap. Thx

Hi All, currently trying to hide my default "overview" lovelace dashboard as I'd only like to use a new one I have created. I cant find how to set the new dashboard as default on all devices to hide overview. Any help would be greatly appreciated
basically I have a user for my family created with a dashboard for devices I want them to be able to control
but I cant hide the overview dash containing all devices

In the end Tinkerer, I used the multiple-entity row. I wonder if there is a way to enlarge the text space for the input_number entity_row. I tried with style but looks like it does not follow my instructions 🙂

i have a garage door sensor that is normally open or closed. If i use entity card it shows on or off instead. If i click on the entity card it shows correctly as open or closed. Is this a card error or do i need add something to make it work?

The actual state of a binary sensor is on or off. The displayed state can differ. Think of it as the friendly name for the state

@polar kelp are there any other transitions that will work with state-switch, aside from the ones listed in repo? 🤔
FInally got around to test it out and the results were really impressive. Started overhauling my tablet UI to include the feature swapping layout cards inside of other layouts and switch-cards inside of other switch-cards, (think I'm like 3 or 4 deep), glad you made them that way😎 ...Thanks sir!!!
polar kelp
No. They're handcrafted, so right now it's only them.
atomic glacier
Okay, flip looked the best, That'll do👍🏻
polar kelp
If you have any ideas I could look at implementing them.
atomic glacier
After I get a few more of these sections up and going, I'll shoot you note with what I had in mind. Much appreciated! 🥳
Actually, a vertical flip and forward and reverse option for both vert & horizontal flips would look pretty cool. Fade in/out ? ...a few ideas that popped up as I was testing...
This is really changing everything here 👀 ...more places to call popups from 😜
polar kelp
I got the idea for the transitions when I was working on more-info-card, and was thinking you could have like an entities card, and when you click an entity it flips over to display the more info dialog...
Turned out to look weird, though.
atomic glacier
Nice...setting up buttons here to change states for the input_selects to swap out the layout-cards...can't believe how smooth it is...dang, wish I had tried it out earlier...

Hi! I got input_datetime and a automation (switch) for setting an alarm, in a Glances card.
How can I setup to only show the automation element and when I hold it, it shows the information from the input_datetime entity instead of the selected one?
action: more-info
entity_id: input_datetime.despertador_jose
Hello Guys, given a timestamp, how do i convert it to date_time object in templates?
split granite
polar kelp
@sterile violet That's how the more-info action works. It shows the more-info dialog for the entity used for the thing. Can't be changed.
sterile violet
i'll guess i can do it the reverse way, tap to swich automation (other entity) and hold for showing the information for the same entity, input_datetime
yup, that works

Hi, I would like to visualise a tree of energy consumption in a house. I though about a think like.
- ground floor: xxx W
- kitchen: xxx W
- radiator: xxx W
- other : xxx W
+ first floor: xxx W
+ exteriors: xxx W
All values are already entities (sensors or calculated)
I had a look on different lovelace cards and the closest I could get is using an html card like https://github.com/PiotrMachowski/lovelace-html-card with <ul>
Any better way to do it ?

fold-entity-row perhaps?
Or a custom one: https://gist.github.com/thomasloven/1de8c62d691e754f95b023105fe4b74b

I'm having a bit of a nightmare with the streaming component for the front end. I have a number of cameras working in the front end using ffmpeg but two don't work for video on the front end. Pictures are visible using the camera_proxy url but I don't get the video playing in the pop up. I seem to have narrowed down that ffmpeg is set up - has anyone seen this before?

Is there a way to make custom cards show up in the card browser when you go to add them? I must have missed a step. I am trying to use the UI as much as possibel now

@vapid field no, those are generally going to be a matter of choosing the "manual" card and filling in based on the custom card's provided docs

dang.. I've been doing it that way and I keep forgetting names and exact formatting... it might as well be manual heheh
atomic glacier
@polar kelp Thought of another enhancement to possibly consider. The ability to assign a different transition for each state that is matched, that would allow a different effect for each swap. Not sure if that is possible. I may be able to just apply animation to the layout that is changing if not ??? Either way, thanks for your time👍🏻

Was using RPI3B+ with version 0.99.2. This worked very well but wanted something a little more robust so installed on a HP desktop w/SSD runing 0.108.5. I am running the same yamls on both versions. On the 0.99.2 version all my status icons (lightning bolts) changed to yellow when a switch is on (Auto config of Lovelace UI). On the 0.108.5 version they did not change color but the switch did indicate the change. Tried changing to card based lovelace UI but had same issue. On another RPI3B+ I installed version 0.108.6 and it does the same as the 0.108.5 version. Is this a change in HA that I am not able to find while searching, or am I missing some command required by the newer versions? I would appreciate any help.
atomic glacier
@fervent inlet was in the release notes..a few versions back, but I think I found it here: https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2020/02/05/release-105/#icons-no-longer-change-color-based-on-state Too many changes to skip that many versions without having crossed a breaking change or 2 IMO, I just keep everything currently to avoid that

@atomic glacier Thanks

@plush dune You have an accelerometer on the garage door? Cool. But, thinking out loud here, you could perhaps use a custom:button-card (look in hacs community) and base the icon (or its color) on the accelerometer sensor's state (not sure if you can do it with basic button. I only use the custom:button-card). https://github.com/custom-cards/button-card

How can I list the members of a group instead of the group itself? Example snippet:
card:
title: Who is home?
type: glance
entities:
- group.family
state_filter:
- home
type: entity-filter
I would like each member of group.family to be printed instead of group.family. Is this supported?
limpid remnant
I've not tried it, but here's how to expand groups:
Unless the groups changes frequently ... maybe just enumerate the group members under entities.
tranquil nest
Is there currently no way to change the color of the sensor card line graph?
The default seems to be orange but doesn't seem like there's a property to change it.
vernal grail
@limpid remnant thanks. I'm comfortable with templating; do you still think enumerating might be better in simple cases like this?
limpid remnant
I would, especially if you just want to know who's home from a static bunch. That's a straightforward list. Its tougher if you wanted to list who isn't home, but exclude some who may be away at college for an extended period, for example.
otoh, it would be fun to try the expand() function and see if it actually populates your entities. You might need to add the custom lovelace-card-templater to let you template entities: though. Don't know.
vernal grail
I'm curious, how would you deal with someone on extended leave like a college student? (Obviously not now, but eventually) expanding will be useful for things like listing which lights in the house are on anyway, so I will play with it somewhere if not here.
also fwiw I found a premade card which I think does which I'm looking for generally at this point: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities. Maybe I should'be looked first.
vapid field
@limpid remnant Is theer anywhere to browse all these custom cards in use some place? has someone done that work? In hacs, most of the cards don't have much of a description or a picture so it's a burden to go to each repository individually, and HOPE there are pics and an explanation. I can't understand all the jargon yet, so pics are kinda neccesary for my poor brain

Does anyone know how to edit the single entity when using a panel card?
I have some custom cards that I am trying to mess with the formatting on, and I am using "panel mode" as is recommended, but each time I want to make a tweak, I have to change it out of panel mode, then back to see if my changes worked.

If a specific card is becoming quite big, is there a way to create a yaml-file for just that card and reference that in the main view.yaml-file?

I've done it for sensors, switches and lights etc, but I don't see anything regarding Lovelace-cards 😦

Ah, but like DiCaprio, I wanted to go deeper. My file also looks like that and I have seperate yaml-files for each view. But I'm currently making a Markdown-card with a lot of if/else statements, so I want this card in its own file

@stoic rain I do lots of that. I also use lovelace-gen that way I can define a ‘card’ in a yaml file, often these will be several cards in some kind of stack or in the layout-card. Then I can call them from different dashboards and views with different variables if I want. It makes for a lot of reuse and is much more DRY so easier to modify.

Lovelace-gen looks like a scary rabbit hole
