Can the line color of the sensor card be changed?

If the docs don't say you can, then the only way to do that is with a theme/CSS
There is always https://github.com/kalkih/mini-graph-card

pine plinth
can someone point me to the place where custom themes are explained and how to install them? I seem to not find that anywhere other than in an somewhat unhelpful YT video
pine plinth
ugh thanks
polar kelp
But this is probably a better start, actually: https://community.home-assistant.io/c/projects/themes/
Look around, find something you like and start from that. Some link to github pages with installation instructions too, I suppose.
lapis oriole
@polar kelp I posted a message some days ago. Do you have a suggestion for me? Thanks in advance for a reply.

I think it's broken because the style variable names have changed, but the method works.
And don't use mod-card . Use card-mod.
pine plinth
@polar kelp I didn't make it this far. I want to simply install the following: https://github.com/liri/lovelace-themesI added the repo but I fail at activating themes in HA. The discussion refers to a link that is broken and on your link it refers to the the following: ```themes
(map)(Optional)
Allow to define different themes. See below for further details.
[identifier]
(list | map)(Required)
Name to use in the frontend.
[css-identifier]
(list | string)(Required)
The CSS identifier.```
what has to go in CSS identifier for a theme I download via a repository?
or different ask - how do I simply activate themes
polar kelp
There's quite a bit of term confusion going on in that readme...
pine plinth
I figured yes
polar kelp
The simplest way to use themes, it to addyaml frontend: themes: !include_dir_merge_named themes to your configuration.yaml.
Then you create the directory <your config directory>/themes and just dump the theme files in there, e.g. <your configuration directory>/themes/google-home.yaml.
pine plinth
oh great! let me do that and see where I get
polar kelp
I think that once you've made the configuration changes and added the directory, HACS will find out automagically on the next restart that you have themes enabled and give you a new tab.
pine plinth
the google-home.yaml content is also not really mention within the github page or am I missing it?
lapis oriole
@polar kelp
Sorry for my noob-ness. Thanks for your reply! Is this the way to go (not working yet)? And how to integrate card-mod (sorry)?
title: Afvalkalender
type: entities
filter:
exclude: null
include:
- entity_id: sensor.trash_gft
- entity_id: sensor.trash_papier
- entity_id: sensor.trash_restafval
- entity_id: sensor.trash_first_next_in_days
show_header_toggle: false
options:
style: |
{% if state_attr(config.entity, 'friendly_name') == "%" %}
:host {
--paper-item-icon-color:
{% if state_attr(config.entity, 'friendly_name') == "restafval" %}
red
{% elif state_attr(config.entity, 'friendly_name') == "gft" %}
orange
{% else %}
var(--text-light-color)
{% endif %};
}
{% endif %}
sort:
attribute: next_pickup_in_days
method: attribute
numeric: true
type: 'custom:auto-entities'
https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-mod Just follow the installation instructions.
You'll need to add the options to each filter, though. There's no way to add common options.
And your logic seems off. Now you'd get the color red if the friendly name of the entity is exactly "%" while simultaneously exactly "restavfall".
Tip: Start simpler. Do it without the auto-entities card first.
lapis oriole
Yes, I installed your card-mod. Followed your instructions but stuck to integrate several custom cards. Sorry, will read it again and again and try harder/better. Thanks!! I want a different color for the different friendly names. Have to learn a lot.
pine plinth
I'm loving this discord server. Thanks @polar kelp
polar kelp
@lapis oriole if you add the style to each entry in the filter individually, you won’t have to bother with the ifs. Uou can just hard code the color.
pine plinth
when I add an icon to a dashboard to show - why is it invisible? Can I control color at some place?
I use the mdi icons
so they should work

@polar kelp Thanks!! You are the best!

Okay I think I don't understand Icons. I thouth HA can call upon any item from the following website: https://cdn.materialdesignicons.com/4.5.95/ but whenever I use any icon reference it just shows as empty in my interface
do I have to actively include the icon source?
solved. the proper way to call them is mdi:name not mdi-name

Hi everybody, I'm trying to debug a strange issue where I'm using 'custom:config-template-card' to display a local image where the local image changes throughout the day. The image displayed is determined by a sensor, the file location is stored in the sensor. I'm at a strange place where this is 90% working but when the sensor updates the image link 'breaks' and no picture is shown. But if I then refresh the page, the image shows up just fine. Would appreciate some help if poss. I've posted about it here https://community.home-assistant.io/t/100-templatable-lovelace-configurations/105241/351?u=daneboom for full disclosure about potential xposting! 🙂

Question has anyone noticed that the sensor card on lovelace appears to be broken?
What I mean is that my sensor card after a while starts to show a flat line with no fluctuations
but when I refresh the screen suddenly there are many more ups and downs in the previously flat line
sweet cradle
@ivory horizon I have a wall mounted tablet with a sensor on the front page, its updating on its own :/
ivory horizon
strange after some point in time it goes from updating fine to just showing a flat line and when I do a lovelace reload it suddenly redraws the line correctly

Seeking a quick sanity check - is there a frontend for a "web socket" light switch? That is, a dimming slider that updates the dimming value in real-time as it is changing rather than simply submitting the final value.
latent moss
@sweet cradle that's expected for the button card, it doesn't have a UI editor and won't show up in the card picker. Most custom cards do not support that yet. You will have to use YAML code when adding buttons for that card.
digital raven
I'm trying to get an auto-entities card for all the rgb capable lights that are on. How would I need to define that filter?
Currently I have:
filter:
- domain: light
state: "on"
attributes:
supported_features: "|bitwise_and(16) == 16"
I am not sure if I can use templates like that in the filter. The template
{{ state_attr('light.kitchen_table_all','supported_features') | bitwise_and(16) == 16 }}
Evaluates to true at least. I would expect a true or false value would be required here?

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/accessing-homeassistant-front-end-remotely/193867
chilly linden
Please disregard. Turned out the port wasn't opened until I rebooted.
sweet cradle
@latent moss So I must add it into a yaml configuration for it to show right? I guess I was confused because I followed the instructions: https://github.com/custom-cards/button-card#installation But it looks like I need to do manual??? and when it says 'add to ui-lvoelace-card.yaml' I don't have thaf file, is it safe to just create it in the same directory as configuration.yaml?
latent moss
no i meant that it's never going to "show up" in the card picker, ever... because that custom card doesn't support a ui editor
if you mean to install it, after putting the files where it says you can probably go to configuration > lovelace dashboards > resources tab >add and paste in that data
sweet cradle
@latent moss interesting I saw this and whats weird to me is I don't have a "resources" tab I only see Dashboards in the lovelace section....hang on let me imgur this i can't paste....
but I can manually navigate to /resources
latent moss
you wont see it unless you enable Advanced Mode on your profile page (that page is the very last option in the sidebar)
i guess that works too lol
latent moss
if you have it installed via hacs i would just use that
you should already be able to use it i think, you would just add it to a manual card then
sweet cradle
it does not show up in the lovelace + add a new item....if I try and open the code editor as well and do this it says it doesn't exist
https://imgur.com/a/Oqgk0vJ
i've been reading a lot of documentation this doesn't seem possible LOLOL
latent moss
you need to remove the hyphen at the beginning, the line should start withtype and not - type:
latent moss
hah yeah, most documentation uses a yaml way
you just have to remember to remove the hyphen basically
sweet cradle
now it says no visual editor available
so good 😄
tomorrow ....when less whiskey has been consumed....this card may see the light of day!
latent moss
make sure to check the home assistant forums too, there's some good examples and people share cool uses of it in there
definitely not the easiest card to use, more of an advanced one, but there's a big community for it so you can get help at least
sweet cradle
will do! have some decent ideas already in place and just mounted a fire tablet in the kitchen

good day. is it possible on the glance card to have a button with multiple functions? I.e. "Up" sends either the 'Up' command to the receiver (if on) or to the apple tv (if on)?

You could have it call a script, and then use templates in the script to chose the action

okay then I need to learn about templates quicker than thought
calling a script I can do with any type of lovelace card, correct?

Ok here is a different question/bug report maybe? I have noticed my sensor graphs stop updating after a while. The rest of my interface updates fine but the line graph stops fluctuating and just draws a straight line. Has anyone else seen this. I have a static display that is on a monitor and is always showing one page and I notice it all the time on this display. A simple refresh or lovelace reload fixes it but then it happens again afters some time.

https://imgur.com/a/BeLHoCt I am seeing this error in chrome console and don't know how to fix it. I have it installed.
ivory horizon
it can't find mini-graph-card-bundle.js
probably have the resource listing messed up
ivory horizon
installing with HACS only puts the files in your folder
you still have to add the resource line
gloomy tiger
https://imgur.com/a/00Y5DvT It looks like it does it on its own
wheat current
It does not
it gives you a button you can click to add it, but it does not do it for you
gloomy tiger
I have clicked the add to lovelace button
I'm new to this in case you couldn't tell...
ivory horizon
I would verify the file location listed in resources is actually there
gloomy tiger
okay
ivory horizon
if it is not then you might have to fix the link in resources
gloomy tiger
It's not there. Thank you
ivory horizon
uninstall and install it again should probably fix it
gloomy tiger
when I left it as hacsfiles it still didn't show the graph and the same message cam up in console
ivory horizon
You probably have to reinstall the mini-graph-plugin
just uninstall it and then reinstall
ivory horizon
do you have samba share or someway to verify file is there?
ivory horizon
should be located at /www/community/mini-graph-card/mini-graph-card-bundle.js
gloomy tiger
it's there
ivory horizon
which should equal to /hacsfiles/mini-graph-card/mini-graph-card-bundle.js in resources
then you have a different issue then
gloomy tiger
oh?
ivory horizon
if it is there and your getting a 404 in lovelace
gloomy tiger
Could it be related to the fact that it is unable to find my background image at the (correct) specified path?
ivory horizon
something else must be wrong
gloomy tiger
How do you suggest I diagnose that?
ivory horizon
hmm I would open network tab in dev tools for chrome
and look at the request for mini-graph-card-bundle.js
and see where it is trying to request it from
gloomy tiger
ivory horizon
ok are you still getting same error
gloomy tiger
yeah
Well the background gets a different response. https://imgur.com/a/H80CHaw
I fixed the background
ivory horizon
look in the network tab and try to find any 404 requests
I think probably what is happening is that the mini-graph-card can't query the data for the sensor you have attached to it
ivory horizon
what is the url it is trying to call to get all those things
ivory horizon
so http://{IP}/customcards
ivory horizon
in that image where is it looking for the last 4 items in that list
the filter entity ones
your base url may be messed up
gloomy tiger
ivory horizon
which is causing bad linkages
in your configuration.yml under http what is your base_url
or configuration.yaml
ivory horizon
hmm I am not sure
honestly not sure what your issue is but it seems that urls are not evaluating correctly
gloomy tiger
Ill uncomment it and see if it breaks
ivory horizon
did you recently update Home Assistant or HACS
ivory horizon
hmm well there may have been some breaking change at one point that you missed and didn't properly update your configs
wheat current
is your history tab even working?
wheat current
There you go, fix that, and the card will work 😉

Can only access Hassio via IP while on LAN, but via DDNS (I'm using DuckDNS) when remote.
I recently moved, and just got my RaspPI 3 running hassio hooked back up. My internet provider here has me on fiber, and I talked to them to forward port 8123 to my router. My router is an Asus AC-5300, and the big difference here vs my old place is that here the router needed to be reset to auto mode from PPPoE method of getting my internet at the old place. Unlike my last setup where my router showed me the actual WAN IP, here There's a little fiber box that passes the internet to my router, and gives me a WAN IP address of 192.168.2.179 - which is different of course from my actual public IP.
SO... because I can only access hassio using the LAN IP while local but the foo.duckdns.org address while NOT on my network... is my problem that the fiber box isn't letting the duckdns.org pass through to my router?

Quick one - lovelace dashboards - how do I show an Icon AND a title for the tabs - using an icon seems to mean the title is ignored?
marsh wyvern
@wide reef oooo what is CATT, looking it up
i bought two google max hubs or whatever hoping to have lovelace on there and the occasional camera and told my wife thats what they were for
well.. to date there hasnt been any love lace on there lol
shes starting to give me crap about it

does the touch screen work?
wide reef
yes
marsh wyvern
hells yes!
alright looking into it thanks
btw
do you use the "stock love lace"
or you using another dashboard of sorts
wide reef
it does custom cards if that's what your asking
marsh wyvern
been tinkering around with what works best on these screens
yeah there are some alternate dashaboards
like NON love lace..
just wondering what you found worked best
like that for example
wide reef
for the google hub, I use sidebar, CCH for Kiosk mode, stack-in-card so it looks connected and state-switch
i haven't used anything outside of lovelace

alright perfect thanks

What are r.setConfig is not a function and Cannot add property heading_name, object is not extensible and how do I fix them? pls at me
radiant bear
is there a way to change the szie of a certain card to fit with the height of the other cards?
gloomy tiger
@radiant bear height: __
gloomy tiger
yes
radiant bear
If I do that, it says "Expected a value of type undefined for height but received 150."
gloomy tiger
this is what I have for one of my cards ^
I see that error too
I think it may be for only stacks?
You could just put the card in question in a vertical-stack card and adjust the height of that
or put all your cards on that page in a horizontal-stack
radiant bear
I'm actually doing that already but it doesn't seem to work

You have two different conditions. The first condition is missing a state property, and the second one is missing an entity.

conditions:
- entity: sensor.washing_machine_run_time # First condition
- state: 'on' # Second condition
The ~yaml command now includes a link to that primer FYI (as of about... 60 seconds ago)

Hey guys, trying to use the mini graph card from HACS. It says to put resources:
- url: /local/mini-graph-card-bundle.js?v=0.9.3
type: module
in your lovelace configuration. I tried putting it in the configuration.yaml and it didnt seem to like that. Can anyone tell me where this is supposed to go?

configuration -> lovelace dashboards -> resources

Remember to enable your Advanced mode toggle in your user profile if you don't see Resources

ahh ok i have added it there. I assume Type Module and Type JavaScript module in the Lovelace Resources tab are synonymous?

If I add a second tab to my Lovelace overview, how do I tell it one will be the default page? Now, if I click on overview I get a blank page until I click on one of the tabs. Nevermind. Had an extra tab in there that was screwing things up for me.
I'm sure there was a setting for this but I'm missing it.

Still cant get the Mini graph card to work correctly.
No card type found
- type: 'custom:mini-graph-card'
name: Temperature
entities:- entity: sensor.temperature
name: Living Room Temperature - sensor.bedroom_temperature
Cannot read property 'setConfig' of undefined

All i have done is added to HACS and add to the resource tab.
Found a thread in the forums, looks like it didnt need the - before type. Figured it out thanks!

Hey, I really like the custom cards like auto-entities. Is there another card which loops through all my areas and fills a card with the area name and the sensors (filtered)?
Or can I show the area of an entity instead of the name on the entities card (filed by auto-entities)?
faint ruin
i am a noobie here. i have HA setup and running and just notice that when i toggle a switch the light comes on but the mdi icon stays blue and doesn't change states can anyone help with this thanks
honest lake
how is the switch created in your setup
faint ruin
i am not sure i understand the ?
raw brook
I should probably know the answer to this question but... Any reason a Picture Entity Card would show me the live feed on one computer and not another?
mild veldt
@buoyant mango if you have the area name in the entity, auto-entities would work for you
raw brook
Mean I have my HA running on a linux supervised. on that same computer I am running Chrome and the image isn't live...
But on my main desktop using the local address (same as the other computer) it is live

@raw brook Gremlins

Yeah, I'm kind of a big deal now...

@faint ruin what domain is your entity? Light, switch, group?
raw brook
But anyway. I am very confused... No live feed on the same browser (chrome) just different computers... And I believe I had a live feed before on this computer. Maybe I need to update chrome or something
faint ruin
none of them are working
mild veldt
@raw brook seems quite odd

Is it normal for the front end to get laggy and unresponsive? Not seeing any errors on the front end that would be causing it.

@faint ruin check the docs, for non-lights you need to use state_color: true on the card

what's the deal with themes? trying to follow this https://community.home-assistant.io/t/google-light-theme/164227 but the theme doesn't show up in the store.
latent moss
@midnight moon it shows up for me. Are you on the "Themes" tab in HACS? Otherwise if you're on the wrong tab (such as Integrations) it will only search for integrations.
faint ruin
you also have to enable the themes if disable
midnight moon
how can I do that?
latent moss
raw brook
We should change themes to be always enabled...
faint ruin
yeah i haven't had any luck either
faint ruin
themes: !include_dir_merge_named themes
raw brook
Yes. The themes dir should be in the config folder
raw brook
You don't have to have hacs installed to use it like that
latent moss
Not sure if it will help at all, but you can go to Developer Tools > Services tab and call the frontend.reload_themes service.
faint ruin
this is what worked for me
midnight moon
wait is hacs an add-on, I thought it was just the add-on store
midnight moon
hmm, ok I guess I'll do that now
raw brook
There is a hacs discord as well. Should be able to get some good support from there if you need it
latent moss
did you have hacs installed at all @midnight moon ? or were you in the Supervisor > Add-On Store tab cause thats something totally different.
latent moss
lol well there's your problem.
it's a bit difficult to set up at first, but it's worth it, just follow the guide in the link a few posts up
midnight moon
you need it for themes?
latent moss
Not at all, you can add themes directly into your configuration.yaml file or equivalent if you're using includes. But HACS just makes it way easier, one click to install themes. Just takes a lot of the manual work out of it, no need to mess with YAML or reload themes etc.
midnight moon
instructions aren't clear about "Enable AppDaemon" and "Enable NetDaemon" while setting it up. Should I click those?
latent moss
you dont need them imo
midnight moon
ok cool go it set up, thanks
interesting that the theme I was looking for doesn't show up though
ah still loading them...
latent moss
yeah i think it takes a bit for everything to load in the very first time you install hacs, after that it will be faster

If I set another lovelace dashboard as default, is there a way to not hide the default? This one has been cooking my noodle
green raft
Is there a way to specify an "else" for state_filter in picture-elements card? Basically want one CSS filter for home, and another for anywhere else.
half pawn
Not sure which subject to post this under but I wanted to put hassio behind my nginx reverse proxy server. It happens that hassio runs on the same ubuntu machine as nginx. Not sure what settings to put under "server {"
I have put this in place:
proxy_pass_header Authorization;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Connection "";
proxy_buffering off;
client_max_body_size 0;
proxy_read_timeout 36000s;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8123;
}
So I assumed putting in my fully qualified domain name and adding /hassio would take me to port 8123 on my local machine which it does, but no login box is displayed
I get "home automation' as the page name, get a blue bar at the top of the page and a white background...and that's it
green raft
#330944238910963714 or #general-archived @half pawn. #frontend-archived is for Lovelace or other dashboard support.
Personally, I just use the NGINX proxy manager and port forwarding on my Unifi USG for that.
half pawn
I was port forwarding, but then I need to keep letsencrypt up to date in three of my servers behind the router. using nginx reverse proxy means it handles the ssl certificates before passing on requests to the appropriate server.
viral sorrel
if I disable an entity via the frontend how can I get it back?
green raft
-> Entities -> Filter in the top right.
@half pawn - That's why I use NGINX Proxy Manager. It handles all the SSL then routes traffic accordingly. Believe you still need the correct ports forwarded though, but I'm not networking expert.
viral sorrel
ahh! thanks.. now the next problem.. how do I delete said entity? :/
green raft
Click on it and select delete 😛
green raft
Generally, yes. What's why hiding entities is possible.
If you want some entities from an integration, but not all.
viral sorrel
I'm not sure what the purpose of the DELETE button is as it's always ghosted for every entity it seems
well that entity doesn't exist anymore so I want to delete it from HA
and I don't want to hide it because another entity replaced it and I want to delete the old one and rename the new one to the old one
green raft
So rename the hidden one to something you'll never use, then rename the replacement entity to what you actually want to use.
If it's part of an integration that you still use other entities with, not much you can do about it.
loud zephyr
is a multiple button card possible from within the ui?
viral sorrel
seems cleaner to remove the integration and re-add it..
green raft
What integration is it that's not cleaning up its own entities anyway? Seems a bit... off?
viral sorrel
esphome
green raft
Hmm, yeah - might be best to delete the integration then re-add. It auto-detects anyway, so should be quick.
I do vaguely remember dealing with similar when I set up my ESPHome devices.
viral sorrel
I think re-adding automatically requires a restart of the esphome device...
hmm.. maybe it's not going to re-add it until I restart homeassistant..
green raft
Anyone know if there a way to specify an "else" for state_filter in picture-elements card? Basically want one CSS filter for home, and another for anywhere else. Or even just a way to specify a filter for the base image, then specific state-filter for "home"?
viral sorrel
maybe you could have 2 picture element cards and just show one or the other depending on state?
I think I actually use this to show a map when someone leaves the house
green raft
Decent idea. Still can't apply a filter by default though 😦
heavy shoal
Hello there what is the best way to display the time since the entity changed on lovelace in picture entity ? Should I need to go first with sensor template making the state the last_update of my sensor ?
split granite
Doesn't look like picture-entity supports that
So yeah, template sensor, but you'd want to exclude that from recorder and ensure you don't use now() in the template
heavy shoal
I guess I will have at the best the last_updated attribute, otherwise I need to add entity_id: date.time and this look like not nice perf as it means will trigger every minute a change of state.
Good point for the recorder thanks
green raft
You might want to start looking at the picture-element card to start getting more complex fun things.
heavy shoal
Good point thanks
@green raft Can it be that I don't have last_updated in attribute ?
honest lake
last_updated isn't an attribute, it's a property of the state object
~~https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/state_object/~~
but this may not be relevant to picture elements cards because I don't use those
heavy shoal
Was affraid of that so it means not accessible in picture-elements ?
green raft
Probably not directly, but through some clever use of value_template in a sensor (or just using Jinja in general), you should be able to have it output.
heavy shoal
yep ok so what ever solution I need my sensor template, thank you
green raft
A lot of Home Assistant is building helpers off existing entities. Some stuff such as templating isn't quite as ubiquitous/standard throughout it as you'd hope.
split granite
And, generally, the frontend doesn't do templates
heavy shoal
yeah the idea is I have some logic to know when the washing maching ended, then I wanted to have a picture showing the washing mashing is full with the relative time.
but I will adapt, thanks
green raft
I have similar, but not in my UI. I have a TTS announcement over Google Home, a notification, and a lamp that pulses blue when washing is done (plus green when dishes are done, orange when vacuum needs emptying, purple when it's bin day).

@polar kelp Hi, do you have an idea which "tools" to use for my challenge:
Hey, I really like the custom cards like auto-entities. Is there another card which loops through all my areas and fills a card with the area name and the sensors (filtered)?
Or can I show the area of an entity instead of the name on the entities card (filed by auto-entities)?
I like the "auto" part of auto-entities a lot...
A hint which cards or addons to use would be enough, but I am kind of overwhelmed by the amount of addons...
polar kelp
I don't think you can loop through areas, no. Do you add rooms to your home often enough that it's an issue to add one manually?
buoyant mango
Hmm, not to my house, no. But I will add more and more stuff to rooms and then a room gets added to HA.
My point is that I like the automation part. So what I missed was a "group by" option in auto-entities. Which might be a bad explanation...
But I guess there is a limit as to what makes sense to script.
polar kelp
type: custom:auto-entities
card: {type: entities}
filter:
include:
- type: section
label: Kitchen
- area: Kitchen
- type: section
label: Bedroom
- area: Bedroom```That's the best I can do.
Maybe lovelace_gen or template-card or something could remove a few lines of code for you.

@ruby shuttle if you mean in terms of cards, you cannot do that yet. You can restrict access to views using visible: (docs: https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/dashboards-and-views/#visible) if using YAML.

Horizontal stack card

I tried horizontal stack card and it did what I wanted (five buttons next to each other), but I would prefer them to be "in" the card, now I just have 5x cards next to each other
The end result would be one card with five buttons, not five button cards next to each other

Setting up a floor plan with the picture elements card, and I was trying to put an icon element on it that activates a scene, but it's not "making a scene" as expected 🙂 I think my syntax is correct based on the docs, but is it not possible to attach tap_actions using type: icon ?
wide reef
@tight scarab try state-icon https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/#icon-representing-an-entity-state
tight scarab
Ok. I wasn't sure that a state icon would work since it required an entity, but perhaps a scene can be referenced just like a normal entity?
I was passing in a service: scene.turn_on and entity_id: scene.myScene to the action
mild veldt
@ruby shuttle yep, restriction-card will help with that
wide reef
@tight scarab Yes, it's an entity_id
tight scarab
So in this case the action wouldn't be "toggle" though if you always wanted to turn it on.
Would I need a call-service?
wide reef
yes the scene.turn_on
tight scarab
Can't seem to get the syntax right, I guess.
type: state-icon entity: scene.normal tap_action: call-service service: scene.turn_on seems straightforward
hexed bramble
Is there a way to use horizontal stack inside a entities card? I can achieve what I want by using 'custom:stack-in-card' inside entities card, but then the stack has a border around it.

does the standard "active" color come from the theme? can i reference that with a template?
polar kelp
In css you can get the active color with var(--state-icon-active-color).
So you should be able to do something like: ```yaml
type: entities
entities:
- entity: input_select.speed
style: |
:host {
{% if not is_state(config.entity, 'OFF') %}
--paper-item-icon-color: var(--state-icon-active-color);
{% endif %}
}```
With card-mod installed ofc.
stone bolt
delightful. thanks for the help thomas! (and for about a dozen plugins i have installed of yours)
FYI: to match the other icon color I had to use
--paper-item-icon-color: var(--paper-item-icon-active-color);

Hello can some of you post a UI I am interested how it looks like
split granite
The forum has lots of here's my UI threads
kind shellBOT

Reddit too
polar kelp
And of course, there's the interactive demo: https://demo.home-assistant.io/
winter blade
no idea but im curious about the usecase
@lavish solar when you have 2 buttons you can turn something on again, even if it's on already. It's kind of hard to explain but I have 2 light groups. 1 for almost all the lights and one for some nice decoration lights. When all the lights are turned on the decoration light group also turns on. What I wanted is that when I turn the decoration lights group on while everything is on it turns the non-decoration lights off. So I made 2 scenes for the decoration lights, 1 to turn each decoration light on and turn the non-decoration lights off, and another one to just turn off the decoration lights. Then made a switch template that runs the scenes when it gets powered on/off and uses a group with the decoration lights to get the accurate state. I can now ask google or call the switch.turn_on on that template switch even if it's already on, in that case it turn's the non-decorative lights off. But on the frontend it displays as a regular switch, so when it's already on I can't turn it on again. When it's 2 separate buttons you can. (Yes I feel like this could be done way easier but this is what I came up myself, also calling the switch.turn_on on a switch that's allready on doesn't give any event, so an automation wouldn't work.)

@winter blade Set assumed_state to true using customize: https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/customizing-devices/#assumed_state
stone bolt
As a corollary to my earlier question on changing the icon color based on state: Is it possible the change the icon based on state? From googling around I see people having done it using CustomUI templates but I'm reluctant to go that route because I can't find it in HACS. Can I do it with card-mod?
polar kelp
It can not be done with card-mod at this point. And I don't think custom-ui is (currently?) working anymore, perhaps maybe possibly?
Maybe config-template-card
stone bolt
that looks promising. I was excited about the customUI "define once in customize.yaml and it works everywhere" concept but it doesn't appear to be maintained.

has anyone here tried using the "swipe-card"? https://github.com/bramkragten/custom-ui/tree/master/swipe-card
I've put a couple button cards inside the swiper but it always triggers a button accidentally when trying to scroll through them, unless I use hold_action instead of tap_action
wondering if anyone has found a better solution for this. It works fine on my PC using my mouse, but for mobile, accidental clicks always happens

Anyone familiar with whitelist_external_dirs
I can get the above to pass the checks but not

Hi, I don't know if this is right channel to ask, but how to manage cards to display them in order what I want? And also, how to fix issue that when I creating new "page" like "home, lights, etc..."

You can with https://github.com/kalkih/mini-graph-card

You want smoothing, this gives you smoothing. You want the stock card to do it, you get to work on the code to add that, and then submit a PR
History graph isn't really dynamic though, it just shows you the data raw

Any way to hide the legends or hide the data other than the graphs?

Or is there a way to change the port to access home assistant altogether?

that's how you change ip or port

Ok

reverse proxy is having a webserver forward requests to another service transparently. it's commonly used to have one webserver handle all incoming requests and behind the scenes send those requests to multiple internal services that are not directly exposed to the internet themselves.

I am trying to get the radial menu plugin to work
It is correct that i only need to add it via HACS, right?
Tried a very simple test-setup and not even taht works:
- type: 'custom:radial-menu'
icon: 'mdi:home'
name: 'Home'
items:
- entity: light.do_ltak
i get an error box, it is somewhat off to the side, but it seems to say "doesn excist: radial-menu" or something
polar kelp
And if that card isn't the answer you seek, the answer to how cards are ordered is in the link.
@sour crag A tip for the future: "or something" is not a good bug report. You have a much higher chance of someone successfully helping you with an exact error message.
You also need to push the "Add to lovelace" button in hacs.
sour crag
Yeah, i know, but the error box is out on the side
so I can't see it completly
for some reason, it is truncated, so i only see the outer edge of the error box
I have pushed "add to lovelace"
so probably something wrong in my config then..
Tried in on a diofferet page, and now i can see the whole error: Custom element doesn't exist: radial-menu.
"Tried it on a different page"
I don't need to add "resources" manually when i install via HACS, right? (haven't needed that on the other custom cards i use)
polar kelp
The button should handle it instead.
I never went through the code personally though, so I don't know for sure how or when it works.

I'm not actually sure what areas are for, at this point
they seem to not really be usable in the places I'd expect (filtering or grouping for cards or actions), and not everything can be in one
