yes

that wouldn't be that hard to do, but you'd probably need to build a macro that builds it to look like the object and have the template parser return the type

shows recently triggered AND currently running, though i'm adapting it from one that didn't show recent
so can probably drop the include: section entirely since current is recent

Hi! Is there any Lovelace card/integration to see upcoming automations? I.e sunset automations, time-based automations etcetera?
hallow mango
ohh that'd be neat
I don't think you could do that though
just spent a couple hours trying to make a card with recently triggered ones and it nearly killed me 🤣
karmic tiger
HA doesn't know when an automation will next trigger. Triggers are events, automations just respond to events.
Everything in HA is based on events that happen... not stuff that might happen.

You'll need to clear the ban list. For that, you need access to that machine.

so it locks up after just one failed login attempt ?
let me try from another pc

I don't think the default is one failed attempt. And now that we know what the problem is, I'm going to suggest you move to a better channel... if you can get access to that machine, head to #integrations-archived to figure out the ban list stuff. If you can't get access, head to your installation channel for suggestions on how to get access.
vapid field
can this be done from control panel from another pc in local network or only directly from the machine ?
karmic tiger
You need to be able to edit files on that machine.

{% endfor %}
]
@fiery ledge I did get a nice complicated template figured out that produces a pretty good looking card
will share later if you're interested
fiery ledge
sure!
still, the include version seems more robust than the filter template version, even though it uses the template-entity-row card. and makes it easier to add the navigate action, so I'll stick with that for now
hallow mango
I agree, mine seems a little slow with all the templating
will see if I can achieve something similar without the template filter

in my Dashboard I have a few motion sensors, like "Basement Motion Clear".... anyway to make it say "Basement Motion Clear for last 25min, " or simular? basically a quick way to sse which places had recent motion
instead of a history of all state changes... I just want each entity to say how long they have been in current state
something like "History Graph CarD" but textual

what kind of card are you using?
an entities card?

Trying to figure out how I can make a single button that can trigger multiple scenes, in this example turn off all the lights by setting each room's scene to "off", I've already defined a set of scenes for every room.
I could define a new "everything off" scene but then when I add a new light to a room, I have to add it to both scenes
dark dirge
you would do that by writing a script
native cairn
I shall go read, thank you
Oh there's a simple GUI option for that.
Guess I was just looking at the wrong area, thanks again!
dark dirge
Yep. You can only call one thing from a button action, so you have to group them together somehow. That’s typically a script
native cairn
Looks like my innovelli LED script that I've imported is causing some problem with the overall script function of HA, will look more at that tomorrow
dark dirge
There are things you can do in YAML that cause the UI to fail to save and parse the file. The easiest solution is splitting the scripts into UI and manual similar to this: #automations-archived message
fiery ledge
would it be considered a bug when entering 'current: 1' in the dev state attributes list, it also shows 'current_temperature: 19', or 'current_position: 100' ?
I expected it to only filter the exact phrase tbh

They use fuzzy matching logic

What is the best way of troubleshooting why a card will not load in Lovelace? I get "Custom element doesn't exist: collapsable-cards." even though I've triple-checked all code, made sure it's loaded and copied the examples from Github.
Is there a log?
polar kelp
ctrl/cmd+shift+j
There's also some helpful tips here https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-config/wiki/Lovelace-Plugins
fiery ledge
They use fuzzy matching logic
yes, but just as (or maybe even more than ) before in the state filter column, that is not very adequate, and results in many 'non hits'. filed an issue to be sure https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues/10041
stoic rain
ctrl/cmd+shift+j
Thanks! The module doesn't even show up as loaded in the Browser console, tried to filter after it as well.
polar kelp
Then you should have a 404 error about it, or need to make sure you put it in the resources list https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/lovelace_resources/
stoic rain
It's in my resources as - url: /hacsfiles/lovelace-collapsable-cards/collapsable-cards.js - this path is identical to all my other cards that load as expected. I've copied and paste the path, and it highlights them as identical.
(and type: module)
It hasn't been updated in a few months (as I see from the github) - could it be something outside my control?
Maybe 'll try State Switch instead. On your animation, thomasloven, you have 1-2-3 on the top. Are those generated from an input_select entity or do you use some other setting to activate "mode 2" and so?
(link for clicks: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-state-switch)
I use an input_boolean which shows a conditional card now: https://streamable.com/pod1yx
I'd love for a smoother transition and some animations, hence why I'm looking into these cards.
polar kelp
I don't remember how I made that demo. It's probably an input number or so
proven basin
well if you use entities card, you could set `secondary_info: last-changed`

hi, just wondering how I can disable sidebar and title bar in remote displays
using lovelace dashboards
I using Fully Kiosk
I found the user setting to hide the sidebar, but it is still possible to swipe from the left and make the sidebar appear
dark dirge
I don't know if this explicitly prevents access to it: https://github.com/maykar/kiosk-mode
glacial ermine
OK I do have that installed, but it is saying "Not Loaded in lovelace"
hallow mango
reload browser cache
glacial ermine
gives a 404 btw
browser cache in Chrome ?
I siwtched dashboards over to yaml, as I thought it might help with this
bit of a noob here
karmic tiger
Where did you find that link?
This is the correct link: https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/dashboards/
glacial ermine
ah sorry, that was on the kiosk mode github
so I need to add it in the resources: section ?
karmic tiger
Add it via the UI unless you have a good reason not to.
glacial ermine
OK, still unsure how to do that
karmic tiger
The docs you started on tell you:
Non-YAML mode, or Storage Mode, users can find resources in their sidebar under "Configuration" > "Lovelace Dashboards" > "Resources"
glacial ermine
yay it works !
should have read the kiosk-mode documentation better, there is a manual step involved which I missed

Evening All sorry for asking, been digging on the website for ages looking for the variables. I am trying in my frontend configuration, set a colour for a button when that theme is selected. Which is the correct call for a button background ?
glacial ermine
OK, the only I need to find out now is where the dasjboard configs get stored
karmic tiger
They're hidden from you. You don't edit the files, just use the UI.
glacial ermine
if I now click on that dashboard, the header is hidden in HA, so I cant edit it from th GUI
I am going to have to edit the yaml file to disabel kiosk mode first
I found something in config/.storage
guesing it might be that
karmic tiger
If you edit that, you stand a good chance of breaking your dashboards completely.
glacial ermine
well it di workm I just dleted a couple of lines and restarted core
otherwise it seems like there would be no way to get it out of kiosk mode
Ill make sure to do a backup first next time bfore trying this again

I'm getting this error in my system log when I reload home assistant (https://i.imgur.com/2MFkFTD.png), the reason it is even more confusing is that line 14 is an include for my automations directory, line 15 is an include for the scripts directory. The scripts directory only contains the innovelli led script, which apparently contains the entity_id string which it is saying is invalid. Anyone familiar with this situation? I'm unsure what I've done wrong.

I have a card from HACS that won't load - what's the best way to troubleshoot? The path and config.yaml is correct. Is there a log?
karmic tiger
Share what you've done so far.
stoic rain
- Installed the card via HACS.
- Added it to a card in Lovelace - both my own and the github example as a test.
- Added the path to configuration.yaml - copied the relative path of the file to be sure (- url: /hacsfiles/lovelace-collapsable-cards/collapsable-cards.js )
- It shows as Not Loaded in HACS and "custom card does not exist" in Lovelace.
karmic tiger
Add resources via the UI. When you've done that, Ctrl+F5 to force the refresh to skip the browser's cache.
"Configuration" > "Lovelace Dashboards" > "Resources"
stoic rain
I thought that was not possible when using YAML?
karmic tiger
'using YAML'? Have you actually switched to YAML mode for that dashboard?
stoic rain
Or maybe that was just when you tried to edit the dashboard from the GUI. Let me see.
(For some reason my HA went into safe mode)..
stoic rain
'using YAML'? Have you actually switched to YAML mode for that dashboard?
"You are using Lovelace in YAML mode, therefore you cannot manage your resources through the UI. Manage them in configuration.yaml."
Yep.
karmic tiger
Ok, so share what you have in your configuration.yaml for resources.
stoic rain
- url: /hacsfiles/lovelace-collapsable-cards/collapsable-cards.js
type: module
As an example, my favorite card ever, is in the same folder-path-file style.
- type: module
url: /hacsfiles/button-card/button-card.js
is the deal with adding to resources when installing via hacs... that it does it for you if your Lovelace is UI, but not if it's yaml?
my Lovelace is ui, and I've never added anything to resources manually
stoic rain
A strange thing is that "decluttering-card.js" will show in UI-list of loaded resources, but HACS says it's not loaded with a red banner.

Done that a few times - and tried other, clean browsers.

No, there's no trace of that in the browser console. I see banners from most other cards ,though.
karmic tiger
Nothing in the network tab?
stoic rain
No. All the other used .js-files are shown, though. Neat.
Tried a hard refresh as well.
karmic tiger
If the browser isn't attempting to use it, it's like Lovelace doesn't know about it. Did you restart HA after adding it to your resources?

I did, yes.

I guess I'm still not clear on where js vs jinja is used
can js templates be used anywhere in the frontend?
or only where documented, like jinja?
karmic tiger
Yes
tacit cave
can js templates be used anywhere in the frontend?
Js templates are only used in custom cards, and only on the card in specified fields. Jinja can only be used in the backend in template areas and the markdown card. Custom cards exist that accept jinja, and those will only work on specified fields.
trail frigate
i tried my best, but as expected , doesn't work
https://www.hastebin.com/oqimukimuh.lua

turning "null" into "" did work
i just need to get the state in there, when there is one
karmic tiger
What does [[ sensor.lich_5769.attributes.game ]] give?
karmic tiger
entities:
- entity: sun.sun
name: Entity ID with wrapped in tag
type: "custom:secondaryinfo-entity-row"
secondary_info: "<b style='color:red'>[[ sun.sun.entity_id ]]</b>"```Then I don't see why your attempt doesn't work. It's valid JS this time.
Although, upon looking at the docs... it doesn't want JS 😂
And the 'old style' is [[ if(<condition>, <then>, <else>) ]]
trail frigate
and the old style still does work
secondary_info: '[[ if(sun.sun.attributes.elevation < 0, "Below", "Above") ]] the horizon'
karmic tiger
So why not just use that?
trail frigate
this worked for me, but instead of above i need to grab the acutal state, and i don't know how to change "above" to the state

okay thanks mono, helped
i always put the variable in ' ' or " or () and never worked

Probably a caching issue.
The order of the things in the left menu is a per-device setting, though. You'll have to move the stuff around in each device/browser individually.
trail frigate
okay thanks thomas, the menu order is not the real problem, but why is the lovelace broken on my macbook

Probably a caching issue.

karmic tiger
No

its broken on 2 macbooks, ipad and iphone, but on the main Windows PC its working, thats weird
karmic tiger
Caches are local... but that doesn't mean that you don't have the same problem cached in multiple places independently.
polar kelp
It could also be that the bad cache is the working one.
karmic tiger
Imagine if 10 people took a photo of something while it was broken, then it got fixed, and only one person took a new photo.
9 people still have a bad 'cache' of that thing.
The people aren't connected. They don't share photos between themselves.

Hey all, I am trying to apply a double-tap action on a button card that calls the cover.stop_cover service, but am having problems with the syntax to get the entity id in there.. I have the following:
action: call-service
service: cover.stop_cover
service-data:
target: cover.master_bedroom_blinds
But it is not working: TypeError: sequence item 0: expected str instance, Optional found
Any ideas?

and target: doesn't work like that
service_data:
entity_id: cover.master_bedroom_blinds
or maybe, but I don't know why you'd want to:
service_data:
target:
entity_id: cover.master_bedroom_blinds
Thx. Will git it a try..
No, unfortunately that did not work for either case. Thanks though @dark dirge .
quiet tinsel
Thx.
I had already looked at the documentation before I asked here. The documentation is not at all clear what data needs to be put into the 'service-data' portion of the call. If I use the Developer Tools > Service UI I get the following YAML: service: cover.stop_cover target: entity_id: cover.master_bedroom_blinds which does not have a 'data' section, I tried the combination that I showed earlier, as well as the combinations that you sowed @dark dirge , but I still get the same error in the UI when I press double tap the button.. the same error for all 3 cases.
Ahh.. nevermind.. I think i see it now.. service-data vs service_data 🤦♂️

Guess I can fake it with a transparent image over the entire thing.
you can also use an entities card with picture for header and an empty entities list 😉
card_type: entities
entities: []
header:
type: picture
image: /local/weather/weatherbit.png
tap_action:
action: url

I have this entity which gives the data in seconds. How do I put in a custom format to display the value as Hours and Seconds? I mean where should I put the formula? Can I do that directly in lovelace, or should i need to define another entity just for this format?

yes, I followed this a while back and it will list icons and you simply click the icon and it will copy the text to your clipboard and you can customize the icon for any of your entities. https://community.home-assistant.io/t/mdi-icons-for-home-assistant-index/14360

velvet condor
hey, i have got switch as entity. is there a way to make it look like a shutter switch (up/down arrows) in lovelace ? or is there a way to define this on the entity itself?
dark dirge
you can make a template cover
velvet condor
yeah thats what i tried
kind shellBOT
velvet condor
@dark dirge with this config, i get a switch looking correct. but when i press it, i get an error:
sorry its in german, but it says something like: Error when calling service cover/close_cover. not a valid value for dictionary value @ data['entity_id']
dark dirge
how are you making it show up in Lovelace?
velvet condor
its displayed on the default board with this config
hmm i guess i found the error.. restarting
yes, it works!
entity_id: switch.switch.maxi_fenster_links the id was incorrect.. damn
just one switch.
ok just one thing is missing. the cover has 3 buttons: UP/STOP/DOWN
when pressing up, it goes up by sending the ON value, to make it stop, i have to send the ON again. when pressing DOWN i have to send OFF again to make it STOP in that direction.
from the docs "Initially, the state of a switch is unknown. When the switch is turned on or off (via frontend) the state is known and will be shown in the frontend."
is there a way to get the current state (value of the switch ON/OFF)?
velvet condor
stop_cover is of type "action" will it work with this?
sorry, i am new to hassio config scripting
karmic tiger
Well that needs to be a service call.
velvet condor
yeah i thought of a condition
karmic tiger
But the call will depend on the current state... so you'd have to template the service call.
velvet condor
if state ON call service up otherwise down
karmic tiger
Exactly
But what happens if you press stop twice? That would send another 'up' or 'down', wouldn't it?
velvet condor
yes continue
https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/scripts/conditions <-- thats how?
when changing my config for the cover, do i always have to restart the server?
{% if states('sensor.temperature') | float > 15 %}
switch.turn_on
{% else %}
switch.turn_off
{% endif %}
that looks promising
is there a way to test the current entities value with states('sensor.temperature') ?
i mean some kind of debugging, live trying
dark dirge
service: switch.turn_{{ 'on' if states('sensor.temperature')|float > 15 else 'off' }}
and yes, either in 
-> States or -> Templates
velvet condor
ok to understand it: {{ }} is template engine for the config yaml itself its pre-executed?
dark dirge
It's a Jinja Template
and yes, it's evaluated before the script engine executes the step
velvet condor
so when state is on its like:
service: switch.turn_on
dark dirge
yes
velvet condor
ok, since the temperature stuff there is just an example, i have to do it like this i guess
dark dirge
it's just shorthand for the more lengthy option you mentioned
velvet condor
service: switch.turn_{{ 'on' if states('switch.maxi_fenster_links') else 'off' }}
do i have to restart?
or is there some kind of reload mechanism?
i mean /config/server_control and restart
seems not to work, its always sending ON when pressing the STOP button. 😦
i can see the state of the switch goes to OFF when pressing the down button
so i think the statement: states('switch.maxi_fenster_links') seems to return always true
ok i think i found the problem
{{states('switch.maxi_fenster_links')}} returns 'on' or 'off' so the if else doesn't make any sense. instead, i am trying now to append that directly after switch.turn_
YES!
amazing
THX so much, learned a lot
@dark dirge and @karmic tiger thankyou for your help!

you want an extra bar right here? https://i.imgur.com/nN0g0Jq.png
polar kelp
First level is the dashboard, that's to the left. Second level is the view. That's on top.
There are ways to get a third level, such as conditional cards, or state-switch.
hallow mango
what do you mean by third level?
polar kelp
If you want different cards in the view based on some user selection.

Best way is to rethink your layout, though and use the available tools. Kind of like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5y6rhwr5Y8c

controlling input_booleans i guess? so you can automate turning the others off when another is pressed?
polar kelp
Either that or an input_select. You can select an item in those with a service call.
polar kelp
Oh, no wait. That screenshot with the buttons to the left use the URL hash.
hallow mango

hallow mango
ohh, I didn't realize you could do that

I had used state-switch in one of my dashboards a long time ago, but not like this
just to show an entities card vs a glance card depending on user

Hi! not sure if right channel: am new to home assistant, but am an experienced web developer. What would be the best way to create a custom interface for home assistant? (including custom menu/sidebar etc.) I want to write my own (s)css styling and custom js (preferably I integrate something like Vue.JS, but not sure if that would be possible with home assistant).
Have been messing around with ha-floorplan and have a working setup where I can change the color/state of my lights in a 3d floorplan. I want to customize my entire home assistant experience around the 3d floorplan. I saw an example of a custom UI based on picture-elements to style everything (https://community.home-assistant.io/t/floorplan-ui-with-color-synced-lights/169417). However, the way that he styled his custom dashboard is quite hacky, as he built it entirely in picture-elements (having to copy over the code for the sidebar for each and every view for example). What would be a better way of making a custom layout like that, but in a more manageable way (like I said, I have enough experience to make something like that in scss/js, just trying to learn about the best way to set it up with HA)?

No. The examples predates the gui editor, so they won't work exactly that way.

@thorny compass if I understands correctly you go to "edit dashboard" then to the edit pen next to the title for your dashboard, there you can set visibility

how I can do this? 😄
tame shale
in type: custom:state-switch it doesn't work
tacit cave
how I can do this? 😄
You have to use card mod and select the element and display it
if i remember correctly you have to use the mod-card card for card-mod
it's no easy feat for a beginner
requires the custom:card-mod card, and then you have to define the selector for the card
I'm sure someone has done it on the forums, I have not
vapid field
You have to use card mod and select the element and display it
Yeah u are right, sounds complicated 😦 maybe I will find any example
tacit cave
what are you trying to do?
because you can use an entities card to display other cards and it's much easier to change the background. But you still need card mod
vapid field
Trying to add background to code similar to this: https://hastebin.com/oyiponolal
tacit cave
just use entities card
but changing the background still requires card-mod
- type: entities
entities:
- type: custom:button-card
...
- type: horizontal-stack
cards:
- type: custon:button-card
...
entites instead of vertical stack
hallow mango
wait, you can use arbitrary cards inside of an entities card?
tacit cave
yep
hallow mango
I only knew of using different entity rows, button, etc
tacit cave
when there's a will there's a way
it's all high level stuff
so it's not easy for beginners
thats 4 cards: entities, horizontal stack, custom button card, and weather card
however, it's an extremely complicated setup
vapid field
Yes but still there is no background behind them
tacit cave
I was talking to drinernoo
vapid field
Oh 😄 sorry
tacit cave
this is an example of what you're looking for, however I don't adjust the color of the entities background I just leave it as configured in the theme
and i just noticed there a drop shadow that wasn't removed
tacit cave
how are you defining the custom element?
hallow mango
looks nice. I use https://github.com/bokub/rgb-light-card for that type of thing
tacit cave
I attempted to use that card
however it doesn't allow selections
so you'll notice that red is highlighted in my image
that's something you can't do or customize in the rgb-light-card
so all those circle pallets are custom button cards
vapid field
@tacit cave thank u so much for your help, I did it 🙂
hallow mango
so you'll notice that red is highlighted in my image
right
vapid field
card-mod but the biggest issue was how to place all this vertical 'single' cards into one big card with background so hui-element helped a lot 🙂
vivid trout

tame shale
I still can't get that card to work within thie card 😦
low remnant
in fact it looks like in the new instance it's just completely disregarding the grid rows and columns
karmic tiger
Either something was missed/added during the copy/paste or something else is going on.
Hard to say for sure without you sharing anything.
karmic tiger
I still can't get that card to work within thie card 😦
Have you tried adding more sad faces?
low remnant
not really sure what information to share, I have layout-card installed on both and I did these steps.
- On old instance > Overview > Three dots > Raw Configuration Editor
- Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C
- On new instance > Overview > Three dots > Raw Configuration Editor
- Ctrl-A, Ctrl-P
I don't understand how that can result in anything other than an exact duplication
karmic tiger
Identical HA versions? Identical versions for all custom cards in use?
low remnant
Not idential HA no, original was docker, new is HAOS.
As for version of the custom card, I have no way of knowing as it doesn't show a version number in the Resources page
karmic tiger
How did you install the cards?
low remnant
on original it was manual download, on new it was via HACS

HACS will tell you the version. If you did it manually, that will depend on whetherh you copied anything other than just the JS file into your custom components.
Or www, I forget 🤔
low remnant
yeah, I can see a version in HACS for the new one, but no idea what the old instance is running
On old there are no files in "custom_components" there is just layout-card.js" in "www"
karmic tiger
Yeah, I wasn't sure if you'd maybe copied in a package.json or something, so there's no way to compare other than actually checking the JS files against each other.
I'm not sure why you're seeing different results. If you're sure the contents you pasted are the same, it's going to be a case of finding the other variable(s) that are different.
tame shale
oh thats interesting
low remnant
just looked through https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card/releases and it seems that as of a version change back in March all previous configurations are fudged 😩
tame shale
but then no one woudl know who. Iwas responding to
p2:
type: custom:auto-entities
card:
type: entities
title: Lights On
filter:
include:
- domain: light
- domain: switch
within type: custom:state-switch
entity: hash
doesn't work
low remnant
and it looks like HACS won't let me install a version older than the one that breaks everything so going to have to start from scratch tomorrow.
karmic tiger
but then no one woudl know who. Iwas responding to
Tip: ||we don't care most of the time||
tame shale
oh
then I won't respond
😦
MAN - so close. I put that code in its own card and it works perfectly. Just can't nest it within the customer:state-switch
low remnant
I give in trying to convert this to the new formatting, going to have to try and manually install an old version if I can work out how to do that on HAOS.
It worked perfectly well before so I really don't get why they had to go and change everything.
karmic tiger
Who are 'they'?
hallow mango
@tame shale I haven't actually seen any card code you've tried... bets are on it not being correct in one way or another
karmic tiger
You're supposed to decipher the emojis to discover the true meaning.

I've just spent the better part of an hour reading the guide on https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card just can't get anything working at all, it was much more intuitive with the gridrow and gridcol options rarther than this grid area nonsense
hallow mango
@tame shale maybe share some of the code you've tried (use hastebin or something)
maybe we could help if we knew what you were doing wrong
tame shale
card:
type: entities

filter:

- domain: light

this works as its own card.
hallow mango
that looks right
karmic tiger
I know you're frustrated, but please mind your tone, RD2K. Thomas puts a lot of time and love into his custom cards so that people can have beautiful dashboards.
hallow mango
it includes all lights and switches in an entities card, from the looks of it
tame shale
yes I took out most of my filters to make it work
its showing an empty list when used within this code
I think there is a bug of some sort
😦
low remnant
I know you're frustrated, but please mind your tone, RD2K. Thomas puts a lot of ...
Indeed, and I used and greatly appreciated it for over a year, yet for reasons I can not fathom he decided to break something that worked perfectly
hallow mango
https://pastebin.com/VbhsXs6k
that all looks totally fine to me I think
karmic tiger
He didn't 'break something', he made breaking changes. You make it sound like he did it deliberately to spite you. Sometimes it's not possible to add/upgrade functionality and retain all previous functionality.
tame shale
right but the list is empty 😦
hallow mango
how are you changing the hash? @tame shale
karmic tiger
And you don't need to fathom his reasons. You just choose to use the card or not.
But if that's the stance you're going to take, good luck on your own.
hallow mango
I'm gonna guess you're not actually using the correct hash
tame shale
I dont' know what that means?
hallow mango
If the entity parameter is set to hash, which card is displayed will depend on the "hash" part of the current URL - i.e. whatever comes after an optional # symbol in the current page URL.
tame shale
oh oh
when I am in the editor it shows the card - its just no contents
like its all filtered out
hallow mango
not what I asked
karmic tiger
Leave edit mode. View the dashboard with this card on it. What's the hash?
tame shale
karmic tiger
You know the rules... don't spam again.
low remnant
I really wish I could choose to use it, I really do but if it don't work then I have no choice
karmic tiger
entity: input_boolean.all_lights
tap_action:
action: navigate
navigation_path: '#p1'```
So there's no hash until you click one of these... what do you see in the custom card when you do?I see everything in p1 and p3 properly
karmic tiger
Ok, that's the first time you've shared that info.
karmic tiger
No-one said to move anything to p1.
tame shale
oh drinfenoo did
karmic tiger
If you know p1 and p3 work, the problem isn't the state-switch card... so whatever you put inside p2 is the problem.
hallow mango
I didn't say move stuff lol
tame shale
ok ao I moved teh contents of p2 to p1 and it doesn't work there either
karmic tiger
So the problem isnt' the state-switch card...
tame shale
no its the auto-entities card WITHIN state-switch
karmic tiger
And it works okay outside of it?
tame shale
because auto-entities works fine outside it
karmic tiger
Great. So log an issue on one of those cards explaining the situation, and see if the dev can figure it out.
tame shale
?
hallow mango
ALL your lights and ALL your switches
tame shale
its just showing switches and lights that are on
karmic tiger
If that's what they want to show, let them.
karmic tiger
Judging their choices isn't helpful here.
tame shale
yeah I removed the filterting
just to make sure I wasn't screwing anything else up
I was removing potential variable issues
hallow mango
right on
tame shale
criteria - issues
hallow mango
does it work if you use some other method besides hash?
tame shale
yes
hallow mango
🤔
vapid field
Hello again 🙂 I wanted to ask u - Is it possible to create button with link to another button on separate card? Or I can link only cards?
hallow mango
I didn't know you could link to a specific card
or what you would even use that for
tame shale
vapid field
I have shortcut for example to page with all my lights, and I need to scroll that page, It would be easier if I could make link to specific card
karmic tiger
Short answer: it's not possible.
Long answer: make your pages smaller so you don't have to scroll.
Ok, that wasn't a long answer.
tame shale
I don't know I press all three buttons
hallow mango
because atm that's not showing anything lol
hallow mango
look at the address bar
tame shale
thats in the editor so you can see the empty card
its behaving like the criteria isn't met - as if its an empty set
hallow mango
yeah, you have no hash
tame shale
sigh
hallow mango
what is the url in your address bar?
tame shale
im using the other card - with buttons to set the hash
p1 and p2 show
sorry p1 and p3
hallow mango
🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
tame shale
/new-new-lights#p2
there you go
I didn't realize it was actually changing the url
/new-new-lights#p2
hallow mango
aha! something might be incompatible between those cards then
hallow mango
Great. So log an issue on one of those cards explaining the situation, and see i...
^
karmic tiger
Yeah, we got to that conclusion a while ago already 😂
hallow mango
well you and I did 🤣
tame shale
huh I heard it
vapid field
Short answer: it's not possible.
u sure it is impossible?
karmic tiger
I think they're both Thomas', so it doesn't matter which you log the issue on.
tame shale
I was demonstrating something within the editor
hallow mango
yep they are
tame shale
im sure it will matter
but I did
I think state-switch he doesn't really maintain so much anymore
doesn't look like any recent updates 😦
karmic tiger
The constant sad faces don't help anyone...
I'm sure he'll investigate. Report it, then be patient.
karmic tiger
You did the first part. Try the second.
tame shale
its a form of experssion
karmic tiger
So are blocklists. 👋
hallow mango
hey fwiw i can replicate
low remnant
Well after another hour spent recreating the entire dashboard one card at a time I have finally gotten the blooming thing working
I humbly apologise for being rather obnoxious
safe notch
I have HA Core set up on a RasPi using the OS image, and I'd like to use SSL to access the instance locally only.
Is this the best channel for support? Or would #general-archived, or somewhere else be better?
I found https://community.home-assistant.io/t/installing-tls-ssl-using-lets-encrypt/196975, but I'm not sure if that's going to result in https://ip.to.my.home.assistant working properly.
errant plover
No this is not the best place. This is about the UI and Lovelace, you are asking about the LetsEncrypt addon, so... #add-ons-archived would be the place.
fiery ledge
using the shortcut bar, dont we have "Reload Location & Customizations" ?
seems to be the one command I have to return to /configuration/server_control for...
that and homeassistant.reload_core_config
stoic rain
Hey mono (not tagging - hope you see this), you helped me troubleshoot some cards that wouldn't load correctly about a week ago. We couldn't for the life of us figure out why.
Yesterday they loaded. I did not restart, I did not force a refresh of anything or clear cache. It just worked.
tacit cave
using the shortcut bar, dont we have "Reload Location & Customizations" ?
link to docs?
polar kelp
No, you're right. That seems to be missing, Marius.
tacit cave
which card is this?
polar kelp
The quick launch menu. Press c
tacit cave
son of a bitch
polar kelp
Also try pressing e
tacit cave
nice, where's the list of these shortcuts?
mild veldt
In the code
tacit cave
here
polar kelp
I don't think it's even documented.
polar kelp
Oh it is. Great
tacit cave
in the fact that you can disable them
good enough for me
although, this seems like something that should be added.
we have it
polar kelp
With lovelace-wbah you can toggle entities from the quickbar too.
tacit cave
tbh, I don't think I'll use e, but c is a game changer
actually, no, scratch that. I'll use e alot when adding crap
tame shale
you know what is interesting. Those nested cards worked last night on my phone?!
nm im wrong
I know what I was mistaken now - anyway broken everywhere
mr @polar kelp I filled an issue on github
I am very very close but this bug puts me back 😦
tacit cave
You should just switch to lovelace_gen and drop the auto-entities because it has limitations that you can't overcome. Chicken/egg scenarios with other cards.
fiery ledge
on shortcut: would it be a feature request to add 'Reload Location & Customizations', and 'Reload core config'?
btw, I was reluctant to use these keys' but ever since I discovered them, I love them (especially with the new template: integration that makes these configs so easy)
tacit cave

I'd say the FR should include the difference between c and the list provided in server controls
which I think is just Location & Customizations
misty harbor
Hello everybody, greetings from Austria. I have a strange issue after updating and am curious if you see the same.
Within lovelace I created a picture-elements card. Now after the upgrade on my PCs the tap circle around entities stays persistant and does only disappear when I click somewhere else on the card.
Anybody else who sees this in core-2021.9.7? Can't post screenshots (I think), I hope my explanation is good enough. 🙂 Thanks for any hint.
fiery ledge
which I think is just Location & Customizations
heck, I just created this: https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/discussions/10067 including the core config. O well, it doesnt hurt. hope it can be done.
polar kelp
mr <@!445886408000012289> I filled an issue on github
I can't really fix it right now, but find the row in the .js file that says
root * {```and change it to js root>* {
polar kelp
If you installed through hacs, you probably need to remove the .gz file too or something
Then clear your browser caches
That's state-switch.js, by the way.
tame shale
#root>* {
yeah I changed it
didn't work but I will follow your other directions - thanks
renamed .gz - and cleared cache in browser - no go
restarted HA for good measure
misty harbor
so, turns out when I set "--divider-color: transparent" it works as expected, how can I find out where this divider-color is used? github doesn't give me any occurences, I'd like to write a proper issue possibly with a pull request.
stiff vigil
Hi Guys, is there a possibility to change the resolution of a template built in config-template-card? I have a template which is built for 1920x1200 but i do need 1920x1080
to get it fullscreen properly
tacit cave
gonna need more info
vivid trout
right going to shoot the amazon fire HD 10 as that seems to be issue, on ipad and tab displays same as pc lol
tame shale
That's state-switch.js, by the way.
replacing that renders nothing FYI so I don't think thats the proper change. I appreciate the suggestion but wanted to let you know it went backwards unfortunately.
woven fern
Hey friends! I'm suddenly struggling to login to HA from ONE computer (Chrome, Edge, Firefox) on my local network. If I connect via Nabu Casa on that machine it works fine. On this single computer I get a strange URL redirect and console errors about failing to load /auth/providers. I can obviously connect to the HA host since it sits with the HA logo and the text "intializing". This feels like a security policy issue. Any ideas on how to start tracking this down?
Also sorry if this is in the wrong place. If so let me know and I'll move it.

sounds like you aren't connecting locally and it's pulling information from cache, which makes it appear like it's 'half working'. If you're running a proxy, restart it.

you could do some sort of hybrid with a vertical stack or entities card. place the webrtc card on top with a glance row below it.
woven fern

Thanks. As far as I know there isn't a proxy on my network. Is there any way to force clear the cache in HA? This is device based as it happens in all browsers even with chrome dev tools open and defeating the browser cache
woven fern
Was that for me? It happens in all browsers on my machine including those that haven't visited homeassistant.local before. Visiting via nabu casa DOES work. The problem is trying to get there from the local network.
tacit cave
right I get it, but if it's an auth issue locally, then it's a different redirect internally and it's typically cache related
otherwise it's going to be network related
browser stores bad info and keeps using it, but if youre trying it on new browsers then try restarting your router.
or restarting home assistant, but I assume you've already done that
there's not much troubleshooting you can do when you have nabu casa, it's basically going to be one of your endpoitns
woven fern
Yeah I've restarted HA, cleared cache, restarted problem computer, flushed DNS cache. It seems like something in the HA web server is cached or doing a funny redirect.
tacit cave
Also, as a nabu casa user, you have access to the nabucasa support
formal tide
thanks, did the vertical group with glances, can I get rid of the space in between the two?
woven fern
Sure but it DOES connect as expected through nabu casa so that feels like a data point not a problem. So my computer → nabu casa cloud → HA instance on my network shows the login screen as expected
however my computer → homeassistant.local → shows the HA logo and initializing instead of the login screen
tacit cave
have you tried the IP, not the hostname?
woven fern
I have and it does the same thing
tacit cave
and are there errors in your logs?
woven fern
Do you have a specific log set? I'm not seeing anything obvious
formal tide
for anyone else, this is what I ended up with:
https://paste.debian.net/1212726/
tacit cave
@formal tide you can use custom:hui-entities that essentially does the same thing
it's also more stable than the vertical-in-stack-card, which has broken more times than I can count over the past 4 years
basically, use the custom:hui-entities card and use card mod on each card placed inside to remove the background and drop shadow.
just food for thought the next time vertical-in-stack-card breaks
formal tide
I never worked with card mod, challenge accepted
tacit cave
I can help with that, it's not straight forward
kind shellBOT
woven fern
@tacit cave ☝️
tacit cave
I'm not sure where you're pulling those logs from, but that's not the home assistant logs
woven fern
No its not its from the host startup logs. I can't find anything else that looks suspicious
tacit cave
so you have nothing when you connect in the HA logs?
formal tide
so now I have this with a black background... ?
