I am trying to set up a foscam camera card and I am having some issues. I can get it to work fine but when trying to swithc from auto to live view it will go from a static image(auto) to a blank grey card(live)

Hello everybody.
A simple help, what do I have to enter in "data" and "target"?
I have notify.save_to_file configured in yaml, but I want to test here if it works and I don't know what to fill in?
Thanks

message: under data: is presumably what you want to write to the file. I don't think target: has any meaning for that kind of notifier

#

if you want home assistant to be accessible from outside the LAN you'd just connect all devices to the domain you want it to, right? if that makes sense

dark dirge
#

all devices?

#

you either set up SSL in HA and forward a port to HA via your router, or you set up NGINX or similar (a reverse proxy), port forward to it and have it route to your HA instance

#

any devices you have integrated with HA have no need to be accessible directly from outside your LAN

sterile cove
#

Just HA srry by devices I mean the end home assistant apps on phones

dark dirge
#

your phones will need some way to communicate back to your instance if you want to access HA away from home and/or send location/sensor updates

#

so you do one of the two things I mentioned (which could also include a third option - Nabu Casa) to create that path back to your instance

Hi, every page on HA works fine for me but when I go to Developer > Services I get:
Error while loading page service.

#

It only happens on my laptop - it works on my other computers so I am not sure whats causing this on my laptop only and ONLY this page

I have a generic camera with a SVG URL as "still_image_url". It works, but unfortunately the SVG has a lot of stuff on the top which I would love to crop away. I found "Camera Proxy", but anyone got that working with just "still_image_url"? Seems to me that it requires a stream url or maybe that just can't crop SVG files? The cropped camera is always showing the same svg as my generic camera. Any other means of cropping SVG file without creating my own proxy/addon?

Edit: Oh.. the preview is always showing the original entity, but the entity_picture path is cropped..., but only for jpg, not svg's -_-

I'm getting a shedload of the following messages in my logs, I'm not sure why

Icon mdi:do-not-disturb-off was renamed to mdi:minus-circle-off, please change your config, it will be removed in version 2021.12.

I'm not using that, I'm guessing it might be related to an android phone's DND function? (don't really use that at the moment) but it would be running the latest HA app either way.
any ideas?

#

hmm it appears that i have a lot of devices which have a dnd icon on them. is there a way of updating them all en masse to use this new icon?!

Hi there, I'm looking for a card like the entities one, but with a kind of exclusive feature. Like, only one switch in the card can be on at a time. If you turn one on, the others automatically turn off.

#

I could do it with a blueprint and automation i guess, but the main issue is that it will turn off after the new one turned on, i would like to turn others off before new one turns on

Problem with Timezones: on iOS device the browser show graphs in UTC, while a different desktop PC browser shows correct timezone. This seems to have happened after updating either the iOS_app or HA_core... (incidentally first noticed on HA_app). Anyone else having this problem?

Hi All - not sure if best to post here, but I have some strange issues with the UI not updating the status of devices. Most of my devices are Zigbee throught ZHA but I do have some direct integrations with WIZ LIGHTS, MYQ, LUTRON, etc.

Hi, I have an entity with the unit measurement as '°C' but in the entity UI graph it shows '°C' - how can I change it?

# 
      sensorx_real_feel:
        friendly_name: "SensorX Real Feel"
        value_template: >-
            {% set temp = states('sensor.living_room_thermometer_temperature')|float %}
            {% set humidity = states('sensor.living_room_thermometer_humidity')|float %}
            {{(0.567 * temp + 0.393 * (humidity/ 100 * 6.105 * e ** (17.27 * temp / (237.7 + temp ) )) + 3.94) | round(1) }}
        unit_of_measurement: '°C'
#

because of this I can't link it to other sensors using '°C' in a graph in UI

Actually, it should if it was the one a lot using a python script to write the YAML and calling group.reload

#

If it was some other technique 🤷‍♂️

#

Oh, you’re talking about group.set. I keep forgetting about that

#

That’s a good point. You can call that via an automation triggered on homeassistant.start

#

But not for a light.group

Hello all 👋,

I have opened https://github.com/home-assistant/android/issues/1762 the other day and we settled the issue on making sure all requests from the app would have a consistent User Agent. @frosty pelican did a great work and everything seems to work in his branch, except for the /service_worker.js call. And, you can read the history on the Android ticket, this is a bug on Chrome's WebView and there's no workaround.

Since this is not a bug of the frontend per se, as everything seems to work, I want to ensure that we can safely merge the PR on the Android Companion app and those using the mentioned firewall config won't have any problems.

So, if the service worker does not load, will there any expected issues for the user? What's your recommendation, is it safe to merge @frosty pelican's PR and use the mentioned firewall setting?

Can you please keep the conversation on the mentioned Android issue, to ensure your opinion is kept there for context?

Thanks!

I just updated from 2021.9.5 to 2021.10.4 and now I can not access any of my lovelace dashboards, nor the settings dashboard. I get a JS error in the console

Hello, does anyone know of a way to directly view a sensor's attributes in lovelace?

Is there a way to specify On and Off icon variants for an entity (edited)
I know how to change the icon but it remains the same for both On and Off
cause some entities do change icons for on and off, my entity does that with a square

#

I use Entities Card to display my entity

dark dirge
#

With a custom card that supports that, or with card_mod

junior gulch
#

So with stock cards, that's no possible? ok

dark dirge
#

It is not

junior gulch
#

Oh, I can apparently change the device class to the one with the icons that i like

dark dirge
#

Yes, the device_class can affect the icon and displayed state text, but it doesn’t let you arbitrarily change it

junior gulch
#

I found a list of classes for a binary sensor, but not for switches. Is this documented anywhere?

errant plover
#

They seem rather redundant.

junior gulch
#

Stuff like Humidifiers etc don't fall under switches? for some reason I thought all entities with a toggle are switches

dark dirge
#

The determining factor is the domain of the entity, not what the device physically is

#

Small question regarding dashboard: I would like a global default dashboard that is not automatically maintained by lovelace, and a secondary one with all entities automatically added.

Is there a way to achieve this?

rich eagle

#

It did revert to the main being automatic and the secondary being the one I did by hand for some reason, but after a second try it went well

#

I was editing on two devices at once so shenaningans might have happened

#

I'd like to display the date and time a motionsensor was triggered for the last time. Is this possible? If yes, how, please. I tried entity and bargraph lovelace card but none of these can show the last action. The Row entity card has the option to show secondary information: last updated or last changed but this information gives the history like '31 minutes ago'

woven pine
#

Another question: I have an entity (AC) that has an attribute (current temperature).
Which card should I use to plot its value over the last 24h?

#

It's not a sensor so I cannot use the Sensor card:

  • Should it be a sensor and the integration I use got it wrong?

#

so still confused by HA css and web css, for a menu item to be active on a website etc I would just use :active or .active or even class code depending on use, I tried to sort out active menu item for the sidebar addon with li.active (as it suggest) but it does not work, the closest I have got is :active but this only works when you click on it then it disappeared anyone got any idea ?

i set something to active and it highlights but only when I click on it and does not stay highlighted

tried li.active, li:active (second one gets menu to do what I want but only if I click on it) normal behavior would be highlighting the active page lol so confused here

i have a media player that interfaces with mpd.. i have added several different playlists to the mpd.. so these are available through the source inside the media player.. is it possible to create a card where i can just simply have a select box with the different sources and then a play button next to it?

#

instead of having to open the media player with the three dots and then select the playlist?

I have a weird issue: having 2 sensor type items below eachother, after opening an item (graph or anything) those 2 sensor cards show exactly the same line, when going to another tab and back the “refresh” correctly again

#

The top sensor card takes the line of the bottom one

#

This is on the iOS client

#

Go into "App Configuration" in the left hand menu. Then "Debugging" right down the bottom of the list. Then "Reset frontend cache". Go back to your dashboard and pull down to refresh. #ios_and_mac-archived if the issue persists.

I couldn't find reference in docs, but the little battery icons associated with ZigBee device battery levels no longer show 'partial' levels based on the percentage.....STD Lovelace entities card. And I see an (new?) Option in the card to 'colour icons based upon state'.... But they all show as 'full batteries'. How do I get the partial battery icons back ?

#

Should say they disappeared in 10.1 I think.

I'm trying to create an Entities card that filters by and Input Select (dropdown). I have the input select created and the selection updated an entity. Is there a way to have that dynamically update the filter on an Entities Filter card?

Hey, I have my local weather radar as a camera (I have .gif file that I show as a camera). Sadly my tablet is too slow if I have the camera in picture-glance all the time.

hey guys,

I would like to replicate a flashing button like the example (link) however, i have no idea how to create that entity which says whether the alarm got triggered (red) or not (green).
https://bit.ly/2YTi2MH

dark dirge
#

The entity exposed by your alarm should be enough. Just adjust the states to match

thorn ridge
#

hmmmm

#

wait i think i know what you mean. That would be (for instance) my front door sensor

dark dirge
#

A front door sensor isn’t your alarm

#

the state of the entity alarm_control_panel.area_001 changes to triggered when the alarm is triggered, in my case

thorn ridge
#

hmm

dark dirge
#

as with everything, it all starts with knowing what you want to do in response to what

thorn ridge
#

i know exactly what i want, its just that i don't know how to code it

dark dirge
#

so what entity do you want to use and what state do you expect it to change to when you want the button card to change?

#

you just need to plug those into the config that you posted

#

i have no idea how to create that entity which says whether the alarm got triggered (red) or not (green).

#

that information has to come from somewhere

thorn ridge
#

Ok first i need something to trigger. Ideally at night my alarm is armed_night, if the frontdoor opens has to get triggered.
So, right now i have this as a test:

https://pastebin.com/jvVYP0jD

#

it says 'disarmed' as state but thats for testing purposes atm

dark dirge
#

shouldn't you trigger off what your alarm system says, rather than an arbitrary sensor and what you think it will do?

#

you already have this condition:

# 
  - condition: state
    entity_id: alarm_control_panel.home_alarm
    state: disarmed
#

which implies that you already have an entity for your alarm system

#

just use that in the card

#

I don't know anything about your alarm system, but it looks like maybe you don't have one that's monitoring your entry sensors and are just manually triggering it?

#

usually an alarm system does its own thing and you just want to pay attention to what it says - not write an automation that tells it what to do based on the state of your sensors

thorn ridge
#

no i got it!

#

🙂

#

thanks

#

I have not been able to find a way of showing descriptive texts for entities in e.g. the button card. It would be nice to show it when hovering over an entity, otherwise it is good enough when clicking on an entity. Thanks.

it seems like everytime I add a custom card from HACS, i get something like this Custom element doesn't exist: auto-entities.

card:
  type: glance
filter:
  include:
    - entity_id: sensor.afvalwijzer_gft
    - entity_id: sensor.afvalwijzer_papier
    - entity_id: sensor.afvalwijzer_pmd
    - entity_id: sensor.afvalwijzer_restafval
sort:
  attribute: days_until_collection_date
  method: attribute
  numeric: true```
#

It is installed from HACS

#

Also restarted home assistant

#

ah, I need to reload my browser too 🙁

#

It always seems like a backend issue though, not a frontend issue

#

thankyou, will check it out

severe escarp
#

im trying to understand a problem with brightness handling in the light card.

#

a lot of the time when the brightness is set, the brightness shown in the ui jumps down

#

eg, i could set it to 75%, the light goes to 75%, and then the ui updates and shows it at 53% or something

#

it looks like the backend works on a scale of 0 to 255

#

i see 75% come over teh websocket as 192

#

so something on the frontend is doing maths badly when it scales that to a percentage for the slider

#

this also only seems to happen when the light is in a color mode

#

adjusting the brightness when the light is doing color_temp seems fine

#

what is the trick to getting my lovelace cards in the right order. They display 3 columns wide and no matter how i mess with the up/down arrows I can't get them in the order i want. Its like some kind of auto positioning takes over and vetos my choices.

faint vortex
#

So you have it like this for example?

#

wait 1sec uploading image

#

And you'd want like I have the Hall card in the middle, you'd want that on the left/right?

#

If yes, it's best to use a Grid card and have all your cards in it

#

or multiple grids

#

you can choose the amount of columns

old sinew
#

@faint vortex thank you. I'll give that a try.

#

ooo, looks like vertical stack might also do the trick

faint vortex
#

grid is vertical+horizontal stack together

old sinew
#

aaaahhhhhh the up down arrows only work logically if you're viewing on a screen that fits one card wide

#

as soon as you view on desktop it will try to arrange things and ignore your order

#

unless you force it with stacks. fair enough. makes sense

Hi all, I am search now a long time, but did not find any solution.
perhaps there is someone and can help me.
How can I change the display of the mqtt temperature sensor when I click on it? Actually when I click on it it will be displayed like as a binary sensor and not like a temperature sensor with a history graph

My sensor`s configuration

  • platform: mqtt
    state_topic: relaisheizung/t2_vorl_fussb
    name: "Heizung Temperatur 2 Vorlauf Fussbodenheizung"
    device_class: temperature

unit_of_measurement: "°C"

Sensor is working, and I have is successfull displayed in my lovelace card as a numeric display, but when I click on it, it will not be shown with a history graph of temperature

rich eagle
# clever plover yes, so date and time when last action was triggered

One way could be to create a template entity for that information. Something along those lines: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/template-sensor-with-last-change-open-door/170932

However, rather than hardcoding the timestamp rendering format in the entity, I would probably just have this new entity contain the raw timestamp value and use then an an attribute row to output it: https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entities/#format

Hey, what is the easiest way to create a button on my dashboard that says something like this:
"Change water for cat:
4 days since change (1 day overdue)" or something similar? When I have then done it I want to be able to reset this counter

frail chasm
# tacit cave You can. Under person. There’s a checkbox that says “allow person to log in”

I created my children as people who are tracked via asuswrt detecting their phones, and as users who have the smartphone app on the same phones. The thing that is not quite intuitive is that the concepts "user" and "person" are similar and yet not interchangeable, and cannot be linked if created in the wrong sequence. It's not the end of the world but it certainly is not obvious, especially as one sets up these basics as part of onboarding and therefore during the first engagement with the product when most error prone. It would be nicer if one could refer to an existing user from the person screen, as part of the "allow to login", as well as create a new user.

tacit cave

And as you can see in your screengrab, the function you are highlighting leads to "create user" but not to "associate existing user".

Just updated to 10.6 and when it came up it found an error in one of my views. Not an issue by itself, but it stopped all the other views from loading. I then reinstalled 10.5 and the error is still there so the change must have been in an earlier release. Never had one view effecting another. I have always had a test view that I used to try new code. This never effected my other views.

will the badge and battery icon frontend PR 's be merged before 2021.11 ?

I had a code error on one view that caused all other views not to load. Should I create a GitHub issue for this?

tacit cave
heavy pasture
#

@tacit cave I have 5 tabs. Before if one tab failed it would not load. Now all 5 do not load. This is a change from 2010.10.2

#

Now you are saying that bad code on one tab effects all?

tacit cave
#

or if it's a single yaml file

heavy pasture
#

Not sure what you mean first view. My first view has 5 tabs. It is in tab number three. An error in one tab never effected other tabs before. I have a test tab that I try tabs on

#

It is 5 sperate yaml files

tacit cave
#

tabs are views

#

what your'e calling a view is the dashboard

heavy pasture
#

Ok. Dashboard has 5 tabs

tacit cave
#

right, so if an error occurs on dashboard 1, the rest will fail to load

#

depending on the severity of the error

heavy pasture
#

So an error on dashboard 1, tab three stops all 5?

tacit cave
#

Yes

#

been like this since day 1

heavy pasture
#

What is strange is that I did not change the code. I updated to .6 and got this error

tacit cave
#

something was added or removed to catch something you had miss-configured

#

lovelace doesn't have much config validation built into it

heavy pasture
#

Most likely. The more that is changed the more I find out what I am doing wrong

tacit cave
#

so when it tightens, bad configs get thrown out

heavy pasture
#

Again a good thing.

tacit cave
#

If you use the UI to edit, you'll see the strictest settings

#

if you use yaml mode, you won't see anything

#

usually

heavy pasture
#

The bad code had to do with a marked down card which I am learning.

#

I am in yaml mode.

tacit cave
#

ah

heavy pasture
#

I can try the UI to edit on another dashboard

tacit cave
#

ok, so you can make your own HTML on those cards, and errors in that can break everything too

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/help-needed-with-template-error-in-markdown-card/298415/11
#

This card now displays with no errors but does not show anything for me

#

Most likely a template error or an alert error.

#

Template variable error: 'None' has no attribute 'attributes' when rendering '<ha-icon icon="mdi:home-assistant"></ha-icon>   Add-ons needing update:    {{ states('sensor.supervisor_updates') | default }} > {% for addon in state_attr('sensor.supervisor_updates', 'addons') %} >   {{ addon.name }}  {{ addon.version }} -> {{ addon.version_latest }} > {% endfor %} <ha-icon icon="hacs:hacs"></ha-

tacit cave
#

yah

#

so where is that sensor.supervisor_updates coming from?

heavy pasture
#

Not understanding your question?

tacit cave
#

I don't have that sensor

#

where does it come from

#

what integration

heavy pasture
#

Command line sensor

tacit cave
#

ah ok, what does it output

heavy pasture
#

sensor:

Sensor to track available updates for supervisor & addons

  • platform: command_line
    name: Supervisor updates
    command: 'curl http://supervisor/supervisor/info -H "Authorization: Bearer $(printenv SUPERVISOR_TOKEN)" | jq ''{"newest_version":.data.version_latest,"current_version":.data.version,"addons":[.data.addons[] | select(.version != .installed)]}'''
    value_template: "{{ value_json.addons | length }}"
    json_attributes:
    • newest_version
    • current_version
    • addons
tacit cave
#

can you post all of the attributes from developer tools -> states page

heavy pasture
#

It looks like all the information is there?

tacit cave
#

so the addons appear to work

#

what about the sensor.hacs and it's developer tools -> states page?

heavy pasture
#

repositories: []
unit_of_measurement: pending update(s)
friendly_name: hacs
icon: hacs:hacs

tacit cave
#

ok

#

so the error is in the crap on the bottom

#

do you care about the crap on the bottom?

heavy pasture
#

No

At least I don't think I do

tacit cave
#

that should be al lthat you care about

#

unless you want to see the supervisor info

I do as I update all the betas

tacit cave

then just add for supervisor

I would like to have a card in Lovelace where I can set a timer which turns on a switch after the time I set. For example: the switch "Car heater" and under it I can choose a time by clicking arrows to make it turn on after 30 minutes. Does anyone know how to do that or where I should start looking?

You could use an automation for that

For example I have a dropdown box to modify the motion sensors timeout time. Each time the motion sensor is triggered, the automation script runs and checks to see what the value of the dropdown box is set to.

Hello everyone, I cannot figure out what is wrong with my home assistant instance. When I want to add a new card to my dashboard the list of available cards is empty. I can still add them via code editor, and then switch back to the visual editor. But does anyone of you have an idea why the list of cards might be empty?
When I set it up several months ago the list was filled and with some update (I don't know which one anymore) the list suddenly was empty.

Hi, I've migrated over from Docker to HAOS. In my Docker setup I was able to put jpgs in the www folder. With HAOS I've read the documentation and to put images in the media folder, however when I do this I cannot see any files in the frontend nor can I link to them in my cards. Any tips?

i am looking for a button for my lovelace that will not light up/give any indication of states. In short i need somethign for my switchbots that is just a button press

any suggestions?

tacit cave

custom button card

#

or make a script and use the regular button card with a tap action that calls the script as a service

next turret
#

a script for a button?

tacit cave
#

yes

next turret
#

how does that work?

tacit cave
#

it just does?

#

just use a script as the entity

#

do you know what a script is?

next turret
#

aah a HA script and call that

tacit cave
#

yes

#

i need more caffinee before i ask questions appartally

#

becuase that should have been obvious

#

i was thinking of wrting a script inside the button

rough coyote
#

@tawny vault One pitfall is it makes it lowercase despite the name of my entity being camelcased in config.yaml.
Just something to know i guess.. 😛 took me a while. Guess entity names always all lower or some rule.

Yeah i use name: for that in cards generally. I don't rely on the known name coz for layout in a card i somtimes need to shorten it down so it will fit better on the cards.

#

I want to try to add a background to overview. I saw online that i need to add this to lines:

views:
background: var (--background)

How should I add this to configuration .yaml?

tacit cave
tacit cave
#

you should be adding your background through the theme anyways

fiery ledge
#

manually edited that to "icon": null , and now the error has gone

tacit cave
#

so your statement about using fapro was not the problem

fiery ledge
#

well, I was merely asking, just because I use the fapro for these obsolete icons. I did find it surprising the core.entity_registry still held that icon, even though I never set it in the UI. Maybe it was transferred during the migration of the known_devices.yaml (where it was set before)

tacit cave
#

it's an entity registry

#

it's how the entity was initially registered

#

that configuration doesn't change unless you change it through the integration

fiery ledge
#

btw. If I open the icon cellphone-iphone.svg in my fapro folder in a text editor, I see this: id="mdi-cellphone-iphone" 😉

tacit cave
#

then you'd use fap:mdi-cellphone-iphone 😉

#

unless it was a custom icon, in which you'd use the custom starting indictator

#

all explained in the docs

fiery ledge
#

no, because the file itself is called cellphone-iphone.svg. Using fapro:cellphone-iphoneeverywhere. I downloaded the file from the material website as <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" id="mdi-cellphone-iphone" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24"><path d="M16,18H7V4H16M11.5,22A1.5,1.5 0 0,1 10,20.5A1.5,1.5 0 0,1 11.5,19A1.5,1.5 0 0,1 13,20.5A1.5,1.5 0 0,1 11.5,22M15.5,1H7.5A2.5,2.5 0 0,0 5,3.5V20.5A2.5,2.5 0 0,0 7.5,23H15.5A2.5,2.5 0 0,0 18,20.5V3.5A2.5,2.5 0 0,0 15.5,1Z" /></svg>

tacit cave
#

ok, then again how does that relate to mdi:?

#

it doesn't

#

mdi is the keyword that gets you the MDI icons installed by HA

#

fapro: is the keyword that gets you all custom icons

#

the 2 are not interchangeable

fiery ledge
#

guess the main lesson learned was that the .storage files do hold old data under certain conditions

tacit cave
#

it's always done that. It's the configuration for an integration

#

it's like your yaml files but managed by the UI integrations

mystic echo
#

Hey - not sure if "frontend" is the right place for this: is there a way to have "calculated Sensors"? for example i have multiple light sensors and i'd like to have an Average value, a std. diviation and/or min of all of these sensors. Or another example: a temperature difference between temperatur sensors…

tacit cave
#

if you don't update the integration, then it doesn't update the registry

#

if it's custom integration and doesn't update it for you, then it's a bug. Same goes for non-custom integrations

tacit cave
fiery ledge
#

well I am officially shocked now.... checking the entity again under the Nmap integration, the icon has re-appeared to mdi:cellphone-iphone. How on earth is this possible..

#

deleted it there now too, and the lan_connect shows.

tacit cave
#

because whatever integration is creating it is adding it...

tacit cave
fiery ledge
#

yes, I read that. Thing is, in my full text search of my /config (ofc I did that multiple times already) there was only mentioning of the mdi: file in the entity_registry. there's no integration setting an icon for my devices. I will check this again later to see if its re-instated..

tacit cave
#

what's creating the entity

#

Nmap?

#

if yes, then it's an nmap bug

#

do you understand now?

#

well it can't be nmap because that only uses 2 separate icons

#

return "mdi:lan-connect" if self._active else "mdi:lan-disconnect"

#

also, if you edit storage files when home assistant is running, the changes won't stick

#

so maybe that's yourproblem

uncut jacinth
fiery ledge
#

fearing it is cache on those devices, but just want to be sure

fiery ledge
# tacit cave so maybe that's yourproblem

the latter could be possible. Must confess though I have never stopped HA while editing any of the .storage files. Never encountered an issue. Still, there's a first for everything 😉 thanks.

vapid tapir
#

Anyone seen where entities on a card render find on desktop, but not on mobile app?

tacit cave
#

then everything you've changed has never taken affect

#

you can only edit storage files when HA is off, otherwise HA will overwrite it on shutdown

#

depending on the files

Does home assistant have an option for a multi select input? I am trying to set up a a feature that I can select days of the week (sunday, monday, ...) to configure an alarm and an easy way to turn the alarm on and off for certain days.

keen lava

#

wouldn't I have to make one for each day of the week?

#

im looking for more of something along the lines of, 1 entity which has a value of something like, monday, tuesday, wednesday, friday.

#

Then in my automation configure it as needed.

keen lava
#

ah I didn't quite understand what you were looking for 7 binary entities might be the way to go

#

or input selects if you need more than on off

hearty quartz
#

Yeah, I think the binary entities are the easiest way to go to make front end look nice. would be nice if there was a multi select option.

Because now I have to make 7 entities for the alarm and if I want to have another configuration I would need 7 more entities.

#

Thanks for the input though!

Hey Ho

feral cliff
#

hi. for some reason, my UI tends to stack cards vertically: https://imgur.com/vcTEzj2. sometimes it arranges them nicely, but that's unpredictable

#

do you know where to look to fix this? thank you.

tacit cave
#

There's no way to fix it if you're using a basic view, your only option is to use the grid card inside your view with layout set to true. Or refresh the page with the page fully maximized.

feral cliff
#

i'll look into this grid card, thank you. refreshing with fully maximised doesn't make a difference, unfortunately (i've tried hiding the menus on the left, going full-screen with F11, reducing zoom... nothign changes)

#

do you have a link for the grid card, so i know we're talking about the same thing? thank you

tacit cave
#

it's in the frontend docs

feral cliff
tacit cave
#

yes

feral cliff
#

i think i tried this before, one issue is that as the cards don't necessarily all have the same height, the result wasn't too pleasant visually 😕 but i don't understand why i see so many screenshots of people who don't have that vertical stacking issue with the regular display

kind shellBOT
feral cliff
#

i'll give the grid layout another try

#

thank you.

tacit cave
#

it depends on the card you're u sing

#

the calculation is simple

#

place the cards in columns that appear on the page

feral cliff
#

(i gotta go but i'll review your responses when i'm back home later. thanks!)

tacit cave
#

once the columns are filled with 1 card, it tries to place cards in the next row on each column

#

it will choose the row that has the shortest height to minimize vertical movement

#

if your browser does not calculate the viewing area properly, the rows/column calcs will be incorrect

At least not in vanilla HA. There might some possible magic with card-mod or other custom solutions.

haha yeah. the really magical solutions are beyond my understanding

fringe brook
#

Ok, Thanks! I want to give the guests in my apartment the ability to control heating lights and so on, but want to prevent them from creating automation, tinkering with my settings, or changing the dashboard. I have read that there is a permissions system, but don't know if these specifics are possible. Is this possible?

rich eagle
fringe brook
#

Thanks nice! Is it possible to prevent overriding of temperatures set by a specific automation? I had the reoccurring Problem of people setting the heating to the highest possible setting and opening the windows in winter. You can imagine how my heating bill looked like. I would like to prevent this using some window sensors but am afraid the guests will just override my automation using the Dashboard.

#

Sorry not overriding the automation but overriding the temperature set by the automation

rich eagle
#

I don't think you can currently prevent that per sé, but you can just have your automation run every few minutes and have it set it again to your defined target temperature.

stiff galleon
#

yeah, if its above a max limit, you could just set it to that limit. but your hvac would still run for that short period of time

#

I THINK the dark-thermostat card might let you set a min max for the temperatures

#

yeah it shows a range-min and range-max as configurable options

fringe brook
#

This should work. Thanks a lot! Last question: I will have to write some custom panel as I want to offer some services to my guests. I have seen this is frontend-framework agnostic (except for React). Is there a recommendation of what framework works best? Or some resources except the original documentation that are worth mentioning?

fringe brook
#

Also is there a way to find extensions? Like a Plugin store?

stiff galleon
#

Yeah, it's called HACS

#

HACS itself is an add-on, but it's really a free 'store' of useful community lovelace cards, themes, and integrations

#

Get HACS set up and be prepared to lose your weekend fiddling with neat stuff

warped juniper
#

doesn't that define one icon and change color based on state?

#

won't change the icon to and opened door?

dark dirge
warped juniper
#

good info, thanks. So customization means I can change the icons... maybe

dark dirge
#

Not arbitrarily, but you can choose a device_class that has predefined icons that change based on state

God dam... reading so many links .. but still not able to install a simple custom card 😦 How I can do this without HACS ?

What I have try:
Add the File Editor Integration
Startet in the config/ folder, create a www/cards folder under it
Created a file light-entity-row.js in the www/cards/ folder and copy the source of https://github.com/custom-cards/light-entity-row/blob/master/light-entity-row.js into it.
Going to Settings -> Lovelace Dashboard -> Ressources -> Add
path: /local/cards/light-entity-row.js , type: Javascript
Restart Home Assistent. But still not available :/ trying in yaml edit "type: 'custom: light-entity-row'

vagrant nest
#

is the javascript actually available on that path ? in your browser url ?

tawny cipher
#

Is the theme YAML for the dark theme available anywhere in the Home Assistant code? I want to schedule switching between light and dark themes, but it doesn't seem possible without two completely separate themes for light and dark.

Is it possible to make a button require a confirmation prompt to turn off?

#

Or a switch I guess.

tawny cipher
placid anvil
#

Awesome, I'll take a look.

#

I have a computer connected to a smart power strip, so just want to avoid accidentally turning it off.

#

Probably fine to have confirmation turning it on. Then I can configure the computer to turn on when it gets power.

tawny cipher
#

Yeah it looks like you can't use templates to disable the confirmation, just did some testing.

sand hull
#

I'm working on my Lovelace dashboard, and I'd like some badges which display an attribute of the entity rather than the state of the entity. What is the simplest way to do this?

#

My entity is the climate for a room, and the status is whether heating is on or off. I want to display the current temperature in the badge instead.

#

entity has current_temperature attribute. I don't know how to make the badge display this instead of On or Off.

digital lynx
#

Are more people having trouble with google chrome and entity cards in which the entities cannot be dragged any more to rearrange them

tawny cipher
sand hull
tawny cipher
#

And then you'd use those on your badges.

sand hull
#

I also have a template sensor entity that displays a different icon depending on whether the heating is on or off. This does not seem to have any impact on the icon displayed in the badge for that entity.

#

Sorry - that is actually working as expected. The badge icon changes with the state. What doesn't change is the color of the circle around the badge. It always stays as blue.

sand hull
#

I see that changing for some other entities - red for on. How does that work?

Hi I am new to HA and i absolutely love the potential but the same time i HATE HA. I cant seem to get anything working when it comes to configuration. seems that all old post i find. mention stuff that is no longer valid. i can figure out how to add cards, Icons, and other "addons" Is there a good guide or video out there that is up to date with the newest release ?

vagrant nest
#

should it be possible for the auto-entities card to do the following:

  • first create a filter with exact entities, use this is in auto-entities card 1
  • use the same filter as an exclusion in auto-entities card 2

Without having to recreate the filter/specificing the individuals entities

# opal quiver Hi I am new to HA and i absolutely love the potential but the same time i HATE...

I feel that too. Searching online isn't helpful since so many old posts come up and it is often hard to tell what is and isn't valid any more. The learning curve is steep - for me I had to figure out YAML, the whole architecture of HA, the difference between integrations and add-ons (and now there are blueprints too), devices and entities, automations and scripts, how to access and edit YAML, the list is longer than this. Sometimes it feels like you have to understand it all before you can do something relatively simple. Luckily the community is good, with this Discord, https://community.home-assistant.io/ and https://reddit.com/r/homeassistant being good places to ask questions. But it is hard work nonetheless.

was the hamburger (menubutton) in the menu bar taken out recently? I am trying desperately to get it back, but is seems impossible to find any reference to it.

dark dirge
#

no, only if you did something to remove it

#

like, kiosk mode

fiery ledge
#

yeah, I have/had that, but disabled it entirely. Still no more menubutton. But, I also have 2 other HA instances that done use the kiosk-mode, and dont use any theming at all, and those are not showing a menubutton either! hence my question if Frontend might have been changed.

#

Ofc I mean in the right panel, not the left panel/column with the dashboard names

#

I can only make it show by narrowing the window up to the width the left panel slides in . Wasnt it always available before?

cunning gorge
#

I've still got frequent "Login attempt failed" notifications in my dashboard, rendering the notifications indicator in the sidebar useless. The failed attempts are coming from various PCs on the network that are all logged in with valid credentials and working fine.

#

Not sure if it's exactly frontend related but I thought I'd start here. Any way to just suppress those notifications or automatically remove them when they trigger?

Hi all, trying to implement tap_action on a picture-elements card

kind shellBOT
past minnow
#

the tap_action on the button works fine, but not when applied to the picture-elements card

#

am i missing something obvious?

#

also tried applying it to an element within the picture-elements card, but no luck there either

tacit cave
#

picture elements tap action is the bottom most object

#

if you have other stuff on top, it won't work

#

place a clear image on top of everything and use the tap action on that

#

transparent image I mean

past minnow
#

not in focus? 😉

#

thank you, will give it a try!

tacit cave
#

No in focus is different

past minnow
#

i meant the other meaning of clear, lol

tacit cave
#

the picture elements will have focus

past minnow
#

was just kidding around

tacit cave
#

ah

#

anyways, chances are, your tap action works you're just tapping on things above your picture elements card. Like something you placed on the picture elements

past minnow
#

yep, makes total sense, sorry for my bad humor 🙂

tacit cave
#

all good

past minnow
#

worked perfect, thanks again

okay, is something like this possible ?

HELP, please. I am in the process of recovering a lifelong friend's HASSIO configuration. Her husband passed away earlier this year and he was a home automation tinkerer/hacker for many years. Unfortunately, before he could pass along his knowledge to his son the SSD in the NUC server failed and he was unable to get in. At the time, he was too sick to diagnose of fix the problem. I was able to recover the SSD and get the HASSIO server back up and running, everything is not well.

The problem I working on right now is the Lovelace front end configuration. I have a bunch of custom cards that aren't working (can't be found). I assume he had them working before he passed away and that there is just something off about the configuration. I've spent the past couple of days trying to figure it out, but I'm at a loss.

Taking the example of auto-entities.js - it looks the js file is located in: www/

However, the configuration.yaml file these entries (and more):
lovelace:
mode: yaml
resources: # !include lovelace/resources.yaml
- url: /community_plugin/bar-card/bar-card.js?
type: module
- url: /community_plugin/button-card/button-card.js
type: module

BUT - no entry for auto-entities.js

For example.
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Ooops - where's my manners, Hello, my name us John.

Hi i added a powerplug and added the entities to https://i.imgur.com/ZNI2rMZ.png but now i would like to see a nice bar chart with it for energy today. Can anyone suggest a nice card for that?

#

Trying Statistics Graph Card now.. and now custom:mini-graph-card 😛

tawny vault
#

not so sure /comminity_plugin/ is the right path anymore either

#

llikely to be /local/

tame burrow
# tawny vault llikely to be /local/

Some of the cards work, but more do not. So if the js file is on www/ in the config directory, then the resource defintion would be:

  • url: /local/www/filename.js
    type: module

2 questions:

  1. whats' the difference between type: js and type: module
  2. when I make such a change, do I need to restart something or just reload the web page

Thanks for the tip(s) my friend is going to be so happy when I get this working.

tawny vault
#

@tame burrow local is www

#

how extensive is the lovelace yaml file?

#

it might be worth moving to UI configuration to better understand/use it (this handles resources in the UI more automatically than having to manually add them in your yaml configuraiton

#

and also to install custom cards through HACS. Is that installed? I'm suspecting all the custom cards might have been manually added which means they'll potentially be outdated

#
  1. pretty much everything is js now
#
  1. for those kind of changes you'd need to reload your lovelace (should be a button at the top right I believe - haven't used yaml mode in years)
#

and delete cache and reload usually to make sure it is loaded when it's a new one

#

Thats also custom:mini-graph-card?

tawny vault
#

yeah

#

colours are slightly random as I use config from previous graphs and haven't fixed it yet lol (if you couldn't tell haha)

rough coyote
#

Yesh i prefer mellow

#

This Google theme i recently got is pretty mellow

tawny vault
#

yeah whereas mine is mint 😆

rough coyote
#

No ccount for taste.

#

Pity you can't combine text and icons in the top menu though (For the same view)

tawny vault
#

colours in graphs are useful though especially thresholds

#

Text always take so much space

rough coyote
#

Yeah not that into it tbh, i just wanna see how much power some machines use.

#

On my phone i have to scroll.. on PC.. room left. Should be different mode for phone and PC 🙂

tawny vault
#

for phone I like the swap option to move between views

#

especially handy going from first tab to last rather than having to scroll all the way using the bar

#

especially when there's 21 tabs

rough coyote
#

What's a swap option?

tawny vault
#

meant to say swipe 😴

rough coyote
#

swipe the bar you mean?

tawny vault
#

no swipe the screen to move to next tab

#

like you do with photos

rough coyote
#

i thought so. but that don't werk on my phone

tawny vault
rough coyote
#

nice

#

Installing now. Okay that's really adding to the usability a lot

#

HAHAHA i was in my browser on my posted screenshot. And was like.. Where is my menu? Why doesn't it work? What's going on here? 🙂

tawny vault
#

Yeah I find it rather useful

#

first to last tab saves me so much time

rough coyote
#

wow thought i lost a view after temporarily saving with a non existing icon. But it was just invisible

tawny vault
#

wouldn't it be great if there was a searchable dropdown 👀

tame burrow
rough coyote
#

I have a view with all MDI icons though, next best thing

#

Have to edit it sometime so it puts it as mdi:<name> instead of mdi-<name>

#

So i have no control over what the javascript does :/ Unless i copy the repo

tawny vault

just you wait 🤫

Maybe spend time on making shift-delete in the editor do a 'cut' for this old man.

I'm trying to use a logbook card in Lovelace, but I'm trying to show something that I send to the Logbook in an Automation via the logbook.log service. However, the entry is NOT an entity, and it appears that the Logbook card only looks for entities. Is that true? Is that something that could be changed to accept user added entries? I've found the Logbook search doesn't allow user entries either.

deep hedge
#

Has anybody else noticed on Windows 10, Firefox, when editing a Lovelace Card, that sometimes what you type is reversed? It has been working fine, but just now, when I typed 'livingroom', I got 'moorgnivil'. Even the Del and Backspace works opposite. Very frustrating and odd. Has happened on several occasions. Usually fixes itself after going out and back in a few times.

anyone around using card-mod-theme and change the option vertical-dots to a template like we did with: mwc-icon-button[slot="trigger"]::after { width: 200px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; content: "{{states('sensor.time')}} - {{states('sensor.temp_current')}}° - "; position: absolute; top: 14px; right: 0px; }

#

can not get it to do that anymore

#

maybe because core HA frontend changed to ha-icon-button, but even using that the mod doesnt work, and the three dots remain in place..

Is there a way to get more detailed logging than the inbuilt logbook where it says 'light turned off'? Is there a way I can find out how it was turned off?

Hello, I have problem with my HA installation. Some of my custom components works OK and some are not visible. Today I try to install moon-phase card https://github.com/jeremyhamm/home-assistant-moon
I do that installation steps:

  1. Add to configuration.yaml
    sensor: - platform: moon
  2. Copy images folder and file moon.js to my /homeassistant/www/moon-phases. I try also to /homeassistant/www/community/moon-phases/
  3. Add new resource in my Configuration>Dashboards>Resources like: /local/moon-phases/moon.js but this don't work so I add another like my Sun custom ccard that is working: /hacsfiles/moon-phases/moon.js. But that also don't work.
sand hull

tacit cave
tacit cave
#

it's a custom card

tacit cave
calm plank
#

and I don't see any entity like moon

tacit cave
#

what do you mean "See any card"

#

custom cards do not appear in the frontend when editing

#

you have to add it as a custom card

calm plank
#

Yes, I see some custom cards: custom Sun Card or Custom Vacuum Card

tacit cave
#

Ok, they made special arrangements to make it visible

calm plank
#

When I add this manually:

type: 'custom:moon-phases'
entities: 
- sensor.moon

I see empty space on the right

#

I cant paste picture here

tacit cave
#

make the custom card, click ok and refresh the page

#

lastly, did you restart after adding your moon sensor?

calm plank
#

Yes, I refresh, clear cashe and restart HA

tacit cave
#

Then it should be working if you followed those directions

calm plank
#

I have that situation with few other cards: Upcoming Media Card, Upcoming Emby...

#

Why i can't paste pictures here? I will show You my configs and server catalogs

tacit cave
#

I have no idea what you even mean "paste pictures"

#

that's not a thing

#

you can only add paths to images

calm plank
#

OK, some time ago I can paste pictures to Discord from my local folder.

tacit cave
#

you don't have access rights to paste photos here

#

use imgur

calm plank
#

In my Dashboard I make Tab and it's empty, when I open lovelace configuration I have that:

- title: Moon
  path: moon
  icon: hass:weather-snowy-rainy
  badges: []
  cards:
    - type: custom:moon-phases
      entities:
        - sensor.moon```
tacit cave
#

yes, and it should be working

#

the fact that you don't have a card tells me that it's working

#

normally, you'd have an error

#

so either the card itself is broken or you don't have sensor.moon

#

if the card is broken, there's nothing you can do but wait until it's fixed by the developer

#

when I say "It's working", i'm referring to you adding resources and adding the custom card. At this point its either your sensor or the card is broken.

calm plank
#

When I add this to some other card with working sensor everytjhing is gone!! :/

      - type: custom:moon-phases
        entities:
          - sensor.moon
tacit cave
#

Do you understand what I'm saying?

#

because it seems like you aren't reading what I'm writing.

calm plank
#

I have only that in configuration.yaml:

#==================================
# MOON
#==================================
sensor:
  - platform: moon
tacit cave
#

Ok

#

but you still aren't reading what I'm writing

tacit cave
tacit cave
#

So if sensor.moon exists, then the card is broken

#

and there's nothing you can do but report the issue and wait for a fix.

#

do you understand that?

#

if you installed it incorrectly, you'd have a big red card saying "Cant find card xyz"

calm plank
#

OK, I understand. So I will leave this but can You tell me how about Upcoming Media Card, I also struggling with this. Do know it's working?

tacit cave
#

no clue, I've never used it

#

If it's in hacs its most likely working

calm plank
#

Yes, I install it from HACS and also install Emby Latest Media but also don't see them

tacit cave
#

95% of custom cards need to be configured manually

#

don't expect to see them in the UI editor

#

expect the opposite, them not in the UI editor

#

sharing this card-mod-theme section to hide several option menu items because I haven't found any other references doing that besides hiding the help: /* Hide several option menu items. */ a.menu-link[target="_blank"] { display: none; } mwc-list-item[aria-label="Edit Dashboard"] { display: none; } mwc-list-item[aria-label="Unused entities"] { display: none; }

calm plank
tacit cave
#

I highly doubt that card still works

#

but just read the directions

#

it says to install one of the other cards before you can install this one

#

all the installations are the same

calm plank
#

OK, thanks. I will abondon that 🙂

tacit cave
#

any card that hasn't seen a history in 9 months probably won't work

calm plank
#

I install Emby Latest Media and do everything like in installatiion guide but don't see anything, no card, no entity

tacit cave
#

but the issues page seems like it might work

calm plank
#

I read there but no support answer

#

so maybe it don't work

wait, do you mean there's no file i can manually grab my yaml from for my lovelace cards within my backup? surely it must store that stuff somewhere.

Can someone remind me where the HACS debug log file is located?

/root/config/home-assistant.log ... google ftw

I set the default dark and light mode themes via the frontend service and now I can't choose the default theming behaviour, why?

#

Before I was able to choose between auto, dark and light

#

The set theme is Backend-determined

Could someone point me into the right direction regarding debugging my history page. It just does not load any data, other pages work fine.

Is there a way to set a name for an entity that is specific to a particular user

#

the friendly name, not the entity id

#

My user uses English as the language but there's another user for which I want to have names in Russian

kindred vortex
#

Possible to hide log and history tabs for non admin?

junior gulch
#

I thought so too but how can I change entity names in a separate one? maybe i'm just not seeing the option

#

oh wait, the pen thing

#

...

#

Thank you

errant plover
#

Yep. You can assign a custom name to all the entities using Lovelace.

Hi, I have a template binary sensor defined as this:

someone_in_room:
    friendly_name: "Someone in room"
    value_template: "{{ states('binary_sensor.room_occupation') }}"
    device_class: motion                     
    delay_off:
      minutes: 4

Then I have a history-graph that shows both sensors (someone_in_room and room_occupation) but someone_in_room gets inverted colors (red when motion is detected, green when it's not). Is there any way to change that?

errant plover
#

Nope.

willow dove
#

and any reason why having the same values and device_class both sensors show inverted colors ?

mellow python
#

Stupid question is there an entity to check to see if someone is logged on to HASS.

quasi zenith
#

Hello, I wonder which device_class to use for binary alarm Sensors...? I did not really find one, generic sensor shows Green for on which is not really suitable

karmic blade
#

hey guys, is there a way to the an entity's icon from JS? I'm using the custom:button-card and I wanted to do something like states[sensor.mysensor].icon

Be patient and it will appear

prime dagger

Seems like it's only on one client, errors in the browser console.

#

Thanks for the help anyways

tacit cave
prime dagger
#

Yeah did that, and unloaded custom resources, no change

tacit cave
#

is it a supported browser?

prime dagger
#

Firefox

#

I'll look into it, and if I believe it's a bug I'll report it

#

But doubt it

#

Probably something on my machine that's ruining it

#

api/history/period takes only 1.7 seconds for 4 weeks of data, it's probably just too much to insert into the DOM 🤷‍♂️

Is it possible to shrink an entire card?

#

I am also using the vertical and horizontal cards

Is there any way to make a card specific to a user?

hey. I had reinstall my HA instance and used a backup. now all my HACS cards are missing, despite the fact that they are installed properly in /config/www/community/<packagename> Ressource URL in Frontend/Dashboard also looks right: /hacsfiles/<packagename> Any ideas what else to check?

#

example for mini-media-player:

type: 'custom:mini-media-player'

Custom element doesn't exist
HACS Install: /config/www/community/mini-media-player
Frontend ressource: /hacsfiles/mini-media-player/mini-media-player-bundle.js?hacstag=1485208381130
Thanks in advance

Newbie alert.

I originally posted in #automation, but was referred here.

Just started with Home Assistant.

It found my Two roku's. I can select them and then a channel, but there is no remote display to select a program etc. Even though I see a remote entry, but when I click on it, it just shows details and history, no remote display.

I've searched but haven't found anything useful.

#

I did find an article about installing HACS (the Home Assistant Community Store) but couldn't find it.

mild veldt
#

Remotes just have a set of service calls, there’s nothing built in to display an interface for them. You can use the grid card and place a bunch of buttons to make those service calls or use my custom card roku-card

half haven
#

Hi Ian. Where is your custom roku-card ?

Why isn't a default remote added when the roku player is added ?

Just curious.

#

I can see there is a lot to learn

Hi. I've just added an ONVIF camera integration. Is it possible to get the video stream to appear in HA? Where do I start, please?

rich eagle

#

which is the default icon for a switch in HA Lovelace? Believed that to be toggle-switch, but on device_class switch I get the flash icon.

#

in which file are those icons set, cant find it now in the frontend repo

#

btw, why is that device_class no auto set in the various core integrations (investigating my Z-wavejs entities just made me discover that...)

rich eagle
fiery ledge

#

I would be fine with that, since I never really liked the flash icon here either (as the switch does not necessarily relate to power/outlet). We already use mdi-toggle-switch-off-outline for input_boolean but I don't think that this is a problem.

You can raise a FR and let's see what others think.

Hello, what is the reason Antistorm sensor make trouble with my Mi Air Purifier card?
I copy on the end of configuration.yaml that code:

binary_sensor:
  - platform: antistorm
    station_id: 408
    monitored_conditions:
      - 'storm_alarm'
      - 'rain_alarm'
      - 'storm_active'
sensor:
  - platform: antistorm
    station_id: 408
    monitored_conditions:
      - 'storm_probability'
      - 'storm_time'
      - 'rain_probability'
      - 'rain_time'
#

after my Purifier sensors

#

when I paste that code before I don't see any entities of that sensor

#

also my gif image don't work when I put my ID code 136. When is default 408 my gif is working.

#

In my Air Purifier card I don't see some icons

#

No I delete some unused sensors and see my gif for antistorm but still don't see some images in my Air purifierd card.
It looks like that in my configuration.yaml:

      mi_air_purifier_3_3h_mode_fan_1:
        friendly_name: "Purifier Fan mode 1"
        value_template: "{{ is_state_attr('fan.mi_air_purifier_3_3h', 'preset_mode', 'Fan') and is_state('number.mi_air_purifier_3_3h_fan_level', '1') and is_state('fan.mi_air_purifier_3_3h', 'on') }}"
      mi_air_purifier_3_3h_mode_fan_2:
        friendly_name: "Purifier Fan mode 2"
        value_template: "{{ is_state_attr('fan.mi_air_purifier_3_3h', 'preset_mode', 'Fan') and is_state('number.mi_air_purifier_3_3h_fan_level', '2') and is_state('fan.mi_air_purifier_3_3h', 'on') }}"
      mi_air_purifier_3_3h_mode_fan_3:
        friendly_name: "Purifier Fan mode 3"
        value_template: "{{ is_state_attr('fan.mi_air_purifier_3_3h', 'preset_mode', 'Fan') and is_state('number.mi_air_purifier_3_3h_fan_level', '3') and is_state('fan.mi_air_purifier_3_3h', 'on') }}"

Hello, I wish to include a card into a lovelace dashboard.

    - title: Mobile
      path: mobile
      icon: mdi:home-assistant
      visible:
        - user: x
        - user: x
      badges: []
      cards:
        - type: 'custom:neerslag-card'
          title: Neerslag
          entity: sensor.neerslag_buienradar_regen_data
        !include ../components/floorplan.yaml

However, I get this error:
could not find expected ':' in "/config/lovelace/views/mobile.yaml", line 13, column 1

#

This is the beginning of the floorplan.yaml file:

      - type: horizontal-stack
        cards:
          - type: custom:floorplan-card
            config:
              image: /local/floorplan_svg/floorplan_basic.svg
              stylesheet: /local/floorplan_svg/floorplan_basic.css

#

I'm being thick... again... could any one explain why my horizontal stack inside my vertical stack aren't lining up? The four buttons below are shifted with different spacing, I don't see why. https://pastebin.com/y6gqQ7dF

Is there anyway to limit Lovelace Masonry dashboards to two columns other than putting all cards in two vertical stacks?

hey I am using custom:simple-thermostat and for some reason when I change fan modes it doesn't publish to the mqtt topic. Im not sure what could be wrong but when I listen in my mqtt broker via HA nothing comes up. I can however use the standard thermostat card and that seems to be able to publish properly.

Does anyone know of a custom card that works like the default lights card (with the circle dial for brightness), but is an RGB ring instead?

ivory dust
#

2nd question, is there a way to change the icon of a card based on the wattage going thru an outlet?

tawny vault
#

for the second question custom button card can do that

ivory dust
#

how would i go about doing that?

tawny vault
fiery ledge
tawny vault
#

I have in the past

#

was working then haven't checked recently as it was set for other users in the house lol

fiery ledge
#

yes, i tried to do that too, but it simply keeps showing all tabs to anyone...

tawny vault
#

just checked. Still works

#

it's set via the visibility tab not manually

fiery ledge
#

a well, there's an issue, I use yaml mode.... but still the docs say it should be set with visible: on the view

#

do you have multiple dashboards?

tawny vault
#

in storage mode I also don't see the users if I look at raw config of lovelace

#

I do yes

fiery ledge
#

could it be this is a non-yaml mode feature only? (cant imagine..)

tawny vault
#

I'm no expert when it comes to frontend stuff

#

why are you asking about multiple dashboards?

fiery ledge
#

just checking if that could be an issue ( I have 4 dashboards, of which 2 are admin only)

#

1 is open to anyone, and the 2nd is open except for a couple of views I need to set visible: on

tame shale
#

Is there a bug in custom:simple-thermostat that doesn't let you lower the temp on a setpoint?

tame shale
#

step_size: '1'

#

fixes it

fiery ledge
#

so I found it to be an issue with plugin kiosk-mode.... and a Lovelace bug. the visible works when used as ```visible:

  • user: !secret admin but not asvisible: !secret admin``` which advertised to work too

Hey, I've been googling now for (feels like) hours, unable to find a solution. I have a dashboard with a custom sidebar. In the main area I wan't to add tabs for the different rooms. I know that I can add different views, but this also always reload my sidebar. Is there a solution for this usecase? (Hope it's understandable what I want to achieve)

Is it possible to color a badge based on the RGB color of the entity (assuming the entity is an RGB bulb)? Im trying to make a badge indicator, and the default behavior for a light badge is to show on/off, not the color
