This is my climate.mqtt config

configuration.yaml

[small root]

That should do it too indeed. What is the outcome in the developer tools when you retrieve the template there?

(Just trying to break down the issue)

[livid prairie]

shows known

I got your idea. I didnt know I could test it in template

[small root]

But it should show the temp

You can retrieve the template name in the states of Developer tools and see what the outcome is

[livid prairie]

ok another typo

sorry

[small root]

Sensor name that is

[livid prairie]

s/sensors/sensor

now it shows in test

[small root]

Can you dump the custom sensor that you've created in configuration.yaml?

[livid prairie]

Already in pasttebin above

[small root]

Ow, sorry

[livid prairie]

yeayyy

got it

Thanks man

[small root]

Hmmm, I think I misunderstood what you meant.

Oh great!!!!

[livid prairie]

Yes but your idea helped me find my typo's

[small root]

Brilliant!

[livid prairie]

Thats my dashboard if you have any idea for further improvement then I am all ear's

I have been looking for a clock card since morning but nothing fancy

[small root]

Everyone has different preferences for his dashboard. I am currently fond of using the Mushroom cards.

[livid prairie]

I have mushroom cards, I installed yesterday maybe I need to learn more about them

[small root]

There's a very good video on that from Everything Smart Home

[livid prairie]

Yes maybe will learn more about it soon but soo far this looks decent for what devices I have. Only Aircon and lights which are from touch switches so nothing fancy to use like light card or dimmer etc.

I would like a graph or better gauge card though

[frosty flower]

What's you using for the transparency, and also for the rounded corners?

[native field]

Hello, I'm trying to change the icon next to a switch on an entities card based on it's state. I've done a lot of searching but can't seem to find how to do this or even where to put this code. My card configuration is as such:
type: entities
entities:

• entity: binary_sensor.garage_status
• entity: button.garage_door
• entity: switch.garage_door_lockout
• entity: binary_sensor.keypad_lockout
  title: Garage

i know i can add the "icon" property but how do i make it so it's dependent on the state of the switch entity

I was hoping something like this would work:
type: entities
entities:

• entity: binary_sensor.garage_status
• entity: button.garage_door
• entity: switch.garage_door_lockout
• entity: binary_sensor.keypad_lockout
  states:
  "on":
  icon: mdi:lock
  "off":
  icon: mdi:lock-open-variant
  title: Garage

[fiery ledge]

you either use card-mod for that on a per card base, and check the second link under the Pin in the channel titlebar, or use custom-ui, and set an icon_template for the entity globally. check the link in my Bio 😉 First option always btw is to use a device_class: switch, but then you are tied to the core icons.

[opaque thorn]

I migrated to Z Wave JS and was cleaning up some of the devices. One has a binary_sensor that was configured with a device_class of "door" for some reason which isn't right. Basically I want no device_class like it used to have so that it just has on/off state like the others. In the UI that device_class is set as via the "Shown as" dropdown. But if I clear that to be empty it doesn't save the change, it just retains whatever it was set to before. Anyone else run into this?

[errant kraken]

Sorry for the MIA Spiker, I'm trying to set up a specific room dashboard, then have the screensaver be magicmirror2

[livid prairie]

I have removed the lag by cleaning the dashboard like removing cards which are not needed and re arranging all the cards for wall panel use case now it's much better but only issue is that the wall panel app seems to open ads in browser i didn't suspect wall panel app before until i removed all the apps available in the tab

[rough coyote]

The refreshbutton in the log: I keep having to scroll back up and down to refresh/see the end. I know it's all new and probably gonna change some more. It would realy be helpfull if there also was a refresh at the bottom. Or.. have the refresh button always stay in view. Or have one next to the dropdown in the top right.

Should be relatively simple.. when ppl press the new refresh next to dropdown just trigger same action as if the dropdown changed . no? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

https://i.imgur.com/psbWBSx.png just an idea

[rich eagle]

If no one created one yet, please create a FR in the frontend repository. I know it was at least mentioned during the beta.

That would probably be best in #installation-archived. Please provide there some details, what error you see.

[soft jetty]

Hi everyone, I am trying to figure why my UI-Lovelace-Minimalist dashboard doesnt show custom cards ONLY in the home assistant android app

it says "Custom element doesn't exist: button-card" but all standard cards are working on the same dashboard

[soft jetty]

hmm, thats weird, updating home assistant to yesterday's release seems to have fixed the issue on android app (even though I tried restarts and reinstalls on both home assistant and the android app without sucess)

[polar kelp]

It was probably an issue with caching.

[frosty flower]

I'm using state switch in conjunction with the mushroom entity card and even though the card seems to be switching, the icon color flashes to the color of the new card and then switches back. Anyone know how to fix this?

https://dpaste.org/M7qmt

[rough coyote]

@rich eagle What is Front end repository and where do i find it?

[polar kelp]

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

But I think the forum is better for feature requests. Edit: Never mind. The bot says I'm wrong. Told you it hates me.

.feature

I swear the bot hates me

[kind shell]

If you have a feature request for the frontend you can open one here, for Home Assistant itself please post on the forum. All other feature requests should be made to the developer of that custom card/component.

Command '.features' was invoked by: thomasloven

[rough coyote]

I can see why, Thomas. 😉

What category should i choose for the feature request?

lovelace?

Meh i put lovelace .. triage can re-assign it if it is wronk

[polar kelp]

Supervisor?

[rough coyote]

Apparently i am ET on github 🙂 LOL i completely forgot. No For the log refresh button @polar kelp .

https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/discussions/12613

[polar kelp]

Maybe I was confused by your screenshot here #frontend-archived message

[rough coyote]

Oh yes that's just the supervisor log that's selected in the dropdown

[brave pebble]

Hey everyone. I'm trying to create an automation that when there is a person detection on my deck, that my video glance card full screens on my dedicated home assistant tablet for 3 minutes. Is there an integration for this or it's something built in that I don't know how to access? Thanks.

[polar kelp]

It can be done with the custom integration browser_mod. But it's not very beginner friendly.

[brave pebble]

Dang it. Do you have a video that you might recommend to me? I can do a search to see if I can figure it out.

[polar kelp]

The one linked from the readme is pretty great

[brave pebble]

I did a search and it looks like you're the one that created the browser mod.

[polar kelp]

Correct

[brave pebble]

Thank you for the work. I'll dig into it and if I have any questions, is it ok if I ask you?

[polar kelp]

Sure. I'm usually keeping up in this channel.

[brave pebble]

Thank you!!

[spark ingot]

@half osprey Hi Paulus, here is still a "lovelace" 🙂 https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/new/choose and https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues/new/choose and in the template for an issue here: https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues/new?assignees=&labels=bug&template=bug_report.yml (Please not not report issues for custom Lovelace cards). Just want to let you know...

[grave river]

I'm getting an error when trying to set a static IPv4 address in the UI. I get the same error when setting IPv4 to static on the console. Is this a bug?

[fiery ledge]

is there a better/shorter way to do this:```

• type: custom:state-switch
  entity: user
  states:
  Marijn:
  !include /config/lovelace/buttons/buttons_switches_appliances_locked_switchable.yaml
  Person2:
  !include /config/lovelace/buttons/buttons_switches_appliances_locked_switchable.yaml

Custom groups would be cool... but dont think a FR would see the day, so hope I am missing something obvious

[frosty flower]

There any way to change a devices on or off icon and keep state based icons?

[shrewd garnet]

with the new update I can't find the lovelace resources?

[frosty flower]

i wanna make a header so that this small musrhoom chip card that says my user just sits up top by itself. whats a good wait to do that. i heard of using the custom button card, but i cant get that to work

aha, got it

[hidden tinsel]

What’s the easiest way to switch a switch on/off every day at specific times, that I can still change via the UI?
I need this for 8 switches with 3 on/offs per day each.
Atm I have a 2 input_datetimes (on+off) that I can modify via ui when I put them in a entities card + according automations, for 1 switch. They show up in AM/PM format instead of 24h format and are a pita to change in iOS (alwas skips field after entering 1 digit).
I can’t seem to change a times-of-the-day helper once it‘s set up.
Third option that came into my mind was to set up 4 input_number helpers per switch and interval (hour-on, minutes-on, hour-off, minutes-off) I can control via sliders and 2 template sensors per switch and interval (on/off) based on the helpers.
Did I overlook / miss some way easier method ?

[simple talon]

i suppose frontend /config/server_control endpoint has been removed/replaced in the latest update?

[warped yew]

Is there anyway i can trigger something happening when i'm turning off my radiator using the lovelace card?

Basically i have a state variable that saves whenever an automation does something (for instance opening a window i would save away the state before turning the radiator off so i can return it to the state it had before when i close the window). This works for all automations but i don't know how to save the state when i manually turn the radiator on or off.

[dark dirge]

How are you turning it off manually? If via a card, what card?

[warped yew]

Simple thermostat card

I realize I could make custom buttons for it but that would mean I couldnt use the cards and it wouldn't look as pretty. Also would have to reuse it on multiple views.

[dark dirge]

You can use a state trigger to know when the radiator is turned off (presumably there's an entity)

[warped yew]

Yes but the problem is only want the thing to happen when I do it manually. But there are other automations that also turns it off and i don't want it to happen there.

[dark dirge]

If you want to differentiate when you click a button in Lovelace, you can use the context in the trigger.

[warped yew]

Yeah that's exactly it. How do I do that?

I can't see a context field in state trigger.

[dark dirge]

It's right in that post

You need to use a template

[livid prairie]

Hello I am trying to get numeric state of a device battery
I cannot get it in developer tools template test. While in states I can see the battery percentage

found it in templates

[livid prairie]

current_temperature_template: '{{ state_attr("sensor.mbr_temp_temperature", "temperature") }}'

I use this in climate with platform mqtt and it does comes on the thermostat card but it does not update regularly

only update when some action is triggered on the thermostat buttons like turning on ac or off

is there anyways to make it listen to the changing temperature and update it in the thermostat itself ?

[mystic fern]

can someone explain why the custom button-card is unhappy with this? If I change type to button it works fine, but this throws an error

type: custom:button-card
tap_action:
 action: call-service
 service: scene.turn_on
 service_data: {}
 target:
   entity_id: scene.office_daylight
icon: mdi:weather-sunny

[dark dirge]

it probably doesn't like the target: dict

that's relatively recent (within the last couple of years)

it will probably be fine with this:

type: custom:button-card
tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: scene.turn_on
  service_data:
    entity_id: scene.office_daylight
icon: mdi:weather-sunny

[mystic fern]

Awesome! that worked.

[thorn ridge]

Hey guys,

i've made a graph with Apexcharts where i want in/outgoing traffic monitored p/day. However, the graph just log everything in total and adds it to the columns, instead of logging in/out per day with a new column per 24h. Anyone about to help me understand this problem? https://pastebin.com/9JNEH4iw

[mossy otter]

Can anyone help with a lovelace tap_action? I can't find my answer in the documentation, trying to change an input_text based on what button I click

tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: input_text.set_value
  target:
    entity_id: input_text.kitchen_lovelace_display
  data:
    value: Overview

Keep getting the following error:

Failed to call service input_text/set_value. required key not provided @ data['value']

can't see where I'm going wrong, tried a number of different iterations of YAML based on different documentation and threads I've read

wondering if lovelace acts different to normal scripts/automation services

[polar kelp]

It’s service_data in the frontend for some reason.

[mossy otter]

brill - that did it, thanks @polar kelp

[limpid mauve]

I installed Homeassistant today and I don’t know how to enable the button Supervisor to install some plugins. Can someone help me?

[dark dirge]

How did you install HA?

[limpid mauve]

I went on the website -> getting started -> installation -> raspberry pi and copied the link for rpi 4 64 bit. Then I used it in Balena etcher.

[dark dirge]

Then, -> Addons

[limpid mauve]

But I can’t find Bluetooth low energy there

[dark dirge]

Do you have a pointer to what you're trying to install?

[limpid mauve]

In the YouTube tutorials they have the button supervisor but do I have to do to have that too?

[dark dirge]

YouTube tutorials are outdated almost as soon as they're published

[limpid mauve]

So I this moved to settings -> addons?

[dark dirge]

And there were many UI changes in the last two releases

[onyx nexus]

Hi, I try to use floorplan to color fan icon based on speed. on/off coloring works already. Im usign class: '${(entity.state === "on") ? "spin-" + entity.attributes.percentage : ""}' How i can check that this returns spin-25, spin-50 etc?

[pallid needle]

Is there a way to force the frontend to reload?

I have a device that won't pick up the new ui even though I've logged out and logged back in

I don't have a a way to clear the cache

e.g. when you make a change in HACS you get the reload UI prompt

I'm looking for a way to trigger that manually

[halcyon arrow]

after 2022.05 lovelace mediaplayer card started hiding controls if song changes. Is this the intended from now on? is it possible to make it behave like in 2022.04?

[rich eagle]

Yes, that has been incorporated into the regular "Settings" menu now

[rich eagle]

If you really want to enforce a manual cache refresh I usually go through the browser dev tools: Network tab => set checkout to disable cache and then reload the page

[pallid needle]

@rich eagle thanks, it's a mobile device so I couldn't get to the dev tools

[rich eagle]

Works fine with my media players (= no changed behavior).

Looks a bit as if your media player integration is temporarily changing its state in a weird way between song changes?

[pallid needle]

It eventually started working though

[timid beacon]

Is this still a known issue?
https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues/7442

[winter blade]

Seems like it works fine when switching between browser tabs

Moving between dashboards not so much

[frosty flower]

State switch was clearly not meant for this 😅

Nested vertical stacks within nested vertical stacks to make this happen..

[outer vine]

How do you just display an on/off switch state without giving the opportunity to change it in lovelace? (I want to display a door being open or not)

[outer vine]

Button with no actions maybe?
Edit:
For now, I have a HACS markdown, and I've made a helper input text named garage_door_state :

type: markdown
content: |
  ### Garage port is {{states.input_text.garage_door_state.state}} 
theme: dark_teal

This works, but ideally, I'd love to just show one icon mdi:garage-open when the garage door is open and another one mdi:garage when it is closed. I could use some help with that from any of you yaml wizards. I do not want any input on those, only to show the state

[outer vine]

Made some progress:

type: markdown
content: |
  {% if is_state('input_text.garage_door_state.state', 'closed') %}  
  Garasjeport åpen <ha-icon icon='mdi:garage-open'></ha-icon>
  {% else %}
  Garasjeport lukket<ha-icon icon='mdi:garage'></ha icon>
  {% endif %}

Now all I need is to figure out how to blow up that icon in size 🙂

[fiery ledge]

is that an actual switch entity? I mean switch.garage_door ?

on the icon size, see: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/change-ha-icon-size-in-markdown-card/186644/12?u=mariusthvdb

as for the helper, Id create a binary sensor (with device_class: door) simply following the state of the switch, and reference that in the markdown. but please use the correct way for states in a template {{states('binary_sensor.garage_door')}}, see the Yellow Warning block under https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/templating/#states

[outer vine]

the state is a text_input, it is set by automation, I'm using a distance sensor that points to the roof, and changes value when the garage door is open (roof distance is higher than the garage door when open)

[fiery ledge]

but you can not directly open/close via a switch at all then? so whats the risk of using a direct state?

[outer vine]

This is sensor detection, not commands to open/close

[fiery ledge]

isnt that what you said here: #frontend-archived message

[outer vine]

Bad choice of words I guess, the "on/off switch state" is referencing a boolean helper, not an actual switch, so I don't want it to show as something I can press.

(I'm not an English native)

[fiery ledge]

a right. then a markdown could be a good choice indeed

Or a custom:button-card

[outer vine]

I am reading your post now, where do I set these styles? (which file)

[fiery ledge]

you mean for the icon size in the markdown?

[outer vine]

yeah

in frontend.yaml?

[fiery ledge]

no. in the Markdown card 😉

[outer vine]

oh!

lol, thanks

[fiery ledge]

      - type: markdown
        card_mod:
          style: |
            ha-card {
              background: #103773;
              color: white;
              --mdc-icon-size: 50px;
            }
        content: >

and you need to have the resource card-mod installed.

[outer vine]

from hacks?

[fiery ledge]

yep, or manual, via https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-mod

[outer vine]

added

[fiery ledge]

what device is that distance sensor btw, never used those

[outer vine]

IT's a HC-SR04

Plugged it into an ESP8266 and had it up and running with ESPHome in less than 3 minutes 🙂

Gives me distances btween ~17cm up to 2 meters at specified interval (using 5s right now)

Hmm, card-mod is installed, but not available, the info only says "install card-mod.js as a module" how do I do that?

nevermind, I entered card-mod and not card_mod 😄

[kind shell]

@outer vine posted a code wall, it is moved here --> https://hastebin.com/zumaxuxoki

[fiery ledge]

cool, could well be my first ESP project then . though I dont really like the non-commercial realizations of most of the contraptions I see in the community 😉 anyways, offtopic here

[outer vine]

True, I was posting my current yaml, but got the code-wall thing - question is, once you go if-then-else, you cannot add a states() thing after?

I also don't understand the meaning of the pipe-symbol vs the greater-than symbol in the markdown cards?

[fiery ledge]

those are multiline indicators. And using | or > differs in their impact for new lines/white space see https://yaml-multiline.info

about the templates: you can use any valid Jinja template in the content block, but have to remember that the output is also valid for Markdown. Simply test anything in the dev tools template and see the result

state('input_text.garage_door_state') is a typo, it should be states('input_text.garage_door_state')

and {% if is_state('input_text.garage_door_state.state', 'closed') %} needs to be {% if is_state('input_text.garage_door_state', 'closed') %}

[outer vine]

so my if/else works, it is when I try to add the text again later that it stops working

  {% if is_state('input_text.garage_door_state.state', 'closed') %}  
    <ha-icon icon='mdi:garage-open'></ha-icon>
  {% else %}
    <ha-icon icon='mdi:garage' mdc-icon-size='50px'></ha icon>
  {% endif %}   
  {% states('input_text.garage_door_state') %}

The last line here breaks it

if I remove that, then it shows me the icon only

(nevermind the icon-size parameter, that is cleanup waiting to happen)

[fiery ledge]

thats because you need pairs of curly brckets {{ }} to make it a template on the last line

[outer vine]

!

That worked!

[fiery ledge]

ofc 😉

[outer vine]

Confusing, but ok! Now I understood a little more 🙂

Thx a ton, @fiery ledge !

[fiery ledge]

welcome!

So, I got my alarm panel started here, but I need some help. I like the way the pin code system is setup. Its setup to only show digits when alarm is anything but disarmed, and only show home/away/night buttons when the alarm is disarmed. I have a glance card in the arrow shown in this picture: https://prnt.sc/httuC9997E4B that when clicked on brings up "arm away, arm home" or "disarm" buttons. I dont want it to do anything when clicked on. I just want the icon and stuff to update as the variable changes. Should I be using something other than glance card?

I'm trying to prevent this button from being there : https://prnt.sc/ku5lniGl2dBD but maintain the functionality of how it works currently.

tap_action:
action: none

😎 I figured this one out too 😛

[frosty flower]

is it possible to use templates in browser mods toast command, ex:

            message: Double tap to {{if is_state('lock.front_door', 'locked') unlock else lock}}
            duration: 2000```

this just shows the line in plain text

[dark dirge]

I don't see any indication in the docs or the code that it does

you could pass whatever parameters you want to a script and have the script call browser_mod.toast with the template

service_data: there doesn't evaluate templates like data: does in a script

[frosty flower]

ah ok, calling a script it is, then

not sure what you want to hide then

[slow sundial]

maybe creating a text entity in HA and manipulating that entity in NR

[scarlet osprey]

@slow sundial this

No, it is not possible to hide that

You're also not the first or last to ask

you can remove it using card-mod-theme, see https://community.home-assistant.io/t/card-mod-super-charge-your-themes/212176/1089?u=mariusthvdb, check the themes_card_mod.yaml in my Gists

It never ceases to amaze me what lengths people are prepared to go to for 24x24 pixels... Not saying they shouldn't. Just that it's amazing.

[scarlet osprey]

@polar kelp I run Kiosk mode on one of my devices which is in theory accessible for everyone who comes to my house. Quick Bar is allowing to see all the stuff for everyone.. so it's kind of breaking privacy. I don't personally care about 24x24 pixels on other devices I find it interesting and useful. Just in this case... it's privacy concern.

@fiery ledge Thanks! Will check a bit later. If available I will look for solution to apply those changes only for one dashboard.

[dark dirge]

I don't think there's any reason for that icon to show up for non-advanced users, or for "users"

[scarlet osprey]

I agree. Till HASS will get better privileges management I would show it only for Administrator accounts.

[fiery ledge]

That’s what was mentioned during the beta, somehow though the dev team think it’s cool to open up everything to anyone .. 😉

Using the mod prevents that icon, you’d still need to guard against the key stroke though

[marsh delta]

Running 2022.5.3 and I have no color on the icons in the combo box. I deployed a new home assistant container with same version and there the icon have color. I'm trying to debug and see what causing this. But can't find where the icons get is color from. Trying to use the build in tool on Chrome to inspect elements but the combo box closes when entering inspect mode.. :/ Any one have idea of what can be the problem? Or do know from what value the icons in this combo box get the color?

[marsh delta]

Found the issue. Was Vaccum Card that caused it. Updated to 2.6.3 and works good

[shell torrent]

I agree, and that goes for some other things, like Logbook which I think from a privacy perspective should be hidden as default, not mandatory displayed.
When talking about hiding stuff, @fiery ledge I use all your hide_more_info* from your Gist theme. Thank you so much for that. Have you tried to hide the whole Logbook part from more-info?

[fiery ledge]

recently moved from manual to Hacs installs, and now face an issue with kiosk mode not working because of config errors. returning to manual immediately makes Kiosk mode kick in. do we also need to change the config file in any way?

[fiery ledge]

this is what I hide (and it should be in sync with my gists file.... 😉 )

kiosk mode errors when using Hacs:

[shell torrent]

Yep, those are great, but they don't affect a simple switch where you don't even have a "Show more", it just displays without mercy

[fiery ledge]

on the Kiosk mode: I now see that my manual dl file shows version 1.7.2 in the inspector, while Hacs shows 1.3.4 Now hows that possible...

[winter blade]

Did anyone else experience this before? When selecting an entity (in any card) my mouse doesn't actualy select the things I'm hovering over.
When clicking it just clicks behind the selection menu, and so closes it

https://gyazo.com/824ede33166e9bc5dfd09fcc68fa75ca

Has been like this for quite some time. Doesn't seem to be an issue when using a different browser than chrome. HA frontend is the only place I've noticed this. Not an issue on any other website with selection boxes like these.

[frosty flower]

not sure if here or #templates-archived , can i make a front end template that displays differently depending on the active user?

[dark dirge]

Depends on the card you're using

state-switch can change which cards are displayed based on the logged in user

custom button card gives you access to the user in its JavaScript templates

[frosty flower]

ooh, ill have to take a look at the custom button card then

[cinder yarrow]

before I restore from backup - does anyone have any tips for me? My custom cards have stopped working, nor can they be added again

[polar kelp]

What does your browser console say? And are the resources listed here? https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/lovelace_resources/

[cinder yarrow]

nope, they aren't there! Weird I didn't have to do that before, and didn't see a way to navigate (container version). Thank you!

I'll add them and let you know

[rare junco]

hey guys , i'm using mushroom template card and im trying to get the temperature for my secondary information , im using the following for my temp sensors "{{ states ('sensor.livingroom_temperature') }} °c" however I cant seem to work out how to get an attribute for other rooms where its part of my AC - can anybody assist ?

I have tried "{{ states ('climate.office.current_temperature') }} °c" aswell as ('climate.office' , 'current_temperature') to no avail

[slow sundial]

to get an attribute it's state_attr("entity", "attribute")

it's in the templates example

[rare junco]

I have tried that aswell mate - if I enter that into the 'secondary information' it just prints state_attr("climate.office", "current_temperature") it doesnt actually display it for me

[slow sundial]

what's the entity name and the attribute name?

[rare junco]

entity is climate.office and the attribute I am trying to get from is is called "current_temperature"

[slow sundial]

if you type {{ state_attr("climate.office", "current_temperature") }} in the developer-tools/template do you get the result?

[rare junco]

yes I do

ah my bad I missed the final } !

thank so much for your help mate!

[slow sundial]

👍

[slow sundial]

anyone with this bug?

[rare junco]

give me 2 secs to reboot mate and ill check mine for you

[rare junco]

mines fully loaded mate

[slow sundial]

ok, thanks. guess it's just a weird bug on mine..

Hello. I have a custom card displaying still image inside it. It uses css to round corners of that image. But radius is fixed in card code. Is it possible to get corner radius from frontend theme and paste it into card script (into css part)?

[shrewd dragon]

this link is broken since last 3 versions, if I remember. It goes nowhere. is it already a known bug?

[azure canopy]

It should automatically redirect to developer tools > yaml

[shrewd dragon]

it doesn't

it's strange because it's been like this for 3 releases

[cinder yarrow]

yep needed to add them here, thanks @polar kelp

[outer vine]

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but..
I'm starting to get a decent amount of devices and sensors in my house. Is there any way to get a measure of how many events that actually happen every second? as in a combined total of all sensor updates, and such?

[polar kelp]

Excellent question.

I can think of one way. It's not a very good one, but you can go to Developer Tools -> Events and subscribe to * for a while and look at how quickly the list grows.

[outer vine]

oh lala

lol near 25 events/s

[polar kelp]

You could probably make a trigger sensor that keeps track of it too, somehow.

[outer vine]

If I can jam that into a helper, I could set up an events/minute or something fun like that and just display it as "Traffic" on my dashboard

[polar kelp]

I think this can help: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/template/#trigger-based-template-binary-sensors-buttons-numbers-selects-and-sensors
I haven't played around with those myself yet, but this sounds like a fun way to start

[outer vine]

Maybe as a Riemann sum

Hmm, it didn't accept * as entity hehe

[polar kelp]

That's why I think you need the trigger sensor. You can trigger on events and make it increase its value, I think.

[outer vine]

Tried to do this 🙂

Hmm, this is a challenge:

  - platform: template
      - trigger:
        - platform: time_pattern
          minutes: /1
        sensor: *

I'm pretty sure that sensor: * will not be accepted, second thing I'm unsure of is how to add a counter to that, something that catches all sensors, and counts each one as one thing and adds to a sum total

Why is Hassbot unhappy with me?

Challenge of the day

[vapid field]

Hi, I would like to have temporary mapcard for my dashboard monitor tablet. Is there a yaml code to show a card for example 60 seconds? Like some meteoalarm have a 'Hide when there are no warnings' option.

[main meteor]

How to round a value wo using a template sensor. eg in a picture element card?

[fiery ledge]

I thnk what Thomas meant was to trigger on: trigger: platform: event event_type: state_changed, maybe condition with things like: condition: > {{trigger.event.data.entity_id in state_attr('group.ikea_tradfri_lights','entity_id')}}

and add a counter action, see https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/counter/#error-counting---example-configuration

[outer vine]

Yeah, we are workign through this in "challenge of the day" thread 🙂 not sure if you can see it. Only remaining task now is to reset the counter every minute

[fiery ledge]

#automations-archived 😉

[kindred anchor]

If I'm using custom iframe panels, can these be set to only show for the admin and not for all users?
For example

panel_iframe:
  zwave2m:
    title: "Zwave2M"
    url: "https://zwave.mydomain.com"
    icon:  mdi:z-wave
    
  frigate:
    title: "Frigate"
    url: "https://nvr.mydomain.com"
    icon: mdi:cctv

[fiery ledge]

since you asked for a frontend config: - type: entities title: Count state changed card_mod: class: class-header-margin show_header_toggle: false state_color: true entities: - counter.state_changed_counter - input_boolean.count_state_changed - entity: automation.state_changed_counter secondary_info: last-triggered - entity: automation.state_changed_counter_reset secondary_info: last-triggered

ah, now see I missed your thread, sorry. and see you've got additional expectations 😉

[kindred anchor]

are you talking to me?

[fiery ledge]

who. me? 😉

just kidding,no I was replying to digitaldias

[vapid field]

Is there any workaround or best practise to edit automations via UI in directories?

[dark dirge]

You can't

The UI only edits automations.yaml

[vapid field]

Do I have to move those automations temporarily to automations.yaml or there other best practices?

[dark dirge]

There is no best practice for that. Either create and edit automations in the UI or do it manually

Manually moving automations around will just cause pain

[polar kelp]

• Create new automation in GUI
• Switch to yaml mode
• Delete everything and paste your automation
• Switch back
• Make your edits
• Switch to yaml mode
• Select all, copy and paste back in your file
• DO NOT CLICK SAVE

[dark dirge]

Gack

[polar kelp]

I'm not saying it's good

[dark dirge]

I guess there's profit in there somewhere

[vapid field]

I'm a newbie to yaml and adopted some automations in subdirectories. Now I would like to change them to my environment. UI would be nice.

[dark dirge]

Then I recommend collecting them all in automations.yaml and using the UI to manage them all. Trying to switch back and forth is going to be a nightmare

[vapid field]

I don't understand why the system can handle automations in directories and UI not .

[dark dirge]

If you're using the UI, the underlying directory structure wouldn't matter. There are lots of requests for folder support in the UI, but that may not result in an actual directory tree

[main meteor]

How to round a value wo using a template sensor. eg in a picture element card?

[fiery ledge]

see the updated Gist, and https://community.home-assistant.io/t/card-mod-super-charge-your-themes/212176/1100 for the code Arganto shared

[shell torrent]

Works great. Thank you both so much!

[brazen fern]

I'm trying to set up external access to my home assistant instance, but when I go to the Network page, it comes up completely blank.

Nothing shows up in either the server logs or the devtools JS console.

Server is HA Container on RPi OS via Podman
Client is Firefox on Arch Linux with no addons

[timid beacon]

Is there a way to have a card not even show up given a certain state? I swear I saw something like this at one point

[dark dirge]

https://www.home-assistant.io/dashboards/conditional/

https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-state-switch

[timid beacon]

Thanks, I'm still a real noob when it comes to the dashboard

I saw state switch but I thought it was more of a manually controllable thing, but I think that might be what I'm looking for

[dark dirge]

it's a more flexible version of the conditional card

[timid beacon]

Yeah, I'll be needing an OR condition so I think that's what I want

But I think for some other simpler cases the basic conditional will still work

[dark dirge]

I use state-switch mainly because it provides more attributes to test against, such as the logged-in user

[timid beacon]

Oh wow that's pretty powerful. Seems like I have my work cut out for me to get into this dashboard business

Added it via HACS, but I don't see it show up in my list of cards. I can edit the YAML manually and the card type seems to be recognized though. Should it show up in the card list?

[dark dirge]

if the docs don't say it should, then it almost certainly doesn't

[timid beacon]

I mean the docs don't say the sky is blue but it is

[dark dirge]

point is that if somebody took the time to add that capability, they'd call it out in the docs for the card. If they didn't, there would be no mention of it

[timid beacon]

I guess that just seemed like it was something tied to a card type. So I didn't think they would have had to do anything

[dark dirge]

not true at all

plus, this one is more complex, incorporating other cards

[timid beacon]

Ah I see

Interesting. So this is like a meta card that acts as configuration of sorts for all the cards on a particular dashboard? At first I was thinking you'd put entities on this card to be controlled

But it seems like there's a 1:1 relationship actually. So 1 of these state-switch cards can only control 1 other card?

No wait I had it all wrong, it controls itself

Damn you know I'm not even sure if this is going to be able to handle the use case I was looking for. I have a few entities and I only want the card to show up if any of them are on and display the ones that are on. So for instance showing everyone who's home and just hiding the card if no one is

[dark dirge]

I do that with a conditional card + auto-entities

or state-switch + auto-entities

I have a bunch like that

[timid beacon]

Off to check out auto-entities then. Thanks!

[dark dirge]

auto-entities can actually do all that on its own with show_empty: false:

                - type: 'custom:auto-entities'
                  filter:
                    include:
                      - entity_id: "binary_sensor.*_leak_detected"
                        state: 'on'
                  show_empty: false
                  card:
                    type: glance
                    title: Leaks!
                    show_state: false

forgot about that

[timid beacon]

Thanks for the help!

Now I have all of these empty cards on my dashboard (while editing) and I don't know which is which though lol

Any tips there?

[dark dirge]

I edit everything in YAML

[timid beacon]

Can you split up dashboards into multiple files?

[dark dirge]

  - !include view-climate.yaml
  - !include view-cameras.yaml

or if you really mean dashboards, then there's a whole doc page on it

https://www.home-assistant.io/dashboards/dashboards/

[timid beacon]

Are you able to edit your dashboards in VS Code? I don't see anything in the config dir

Oh wait hold up. When this doc says default dashboard what does it mean by that? It sounds like it's saying you just need to switch over to using yaml

That's unfortunate

[dark dirge]

there's more on that page

[timid beacon]

Yeah I think I'll probably end up doing this eventually, but I'll have to dig into it later

But that did answer my question. You can use the filename to split up your dashboards and then !include to split it up further

Or just any one of the other config splitting !'s I assume

[dark dirge]

you do have to switch to YAML mode for whatever dashboard you want to use !include in

[timid beacon]

It's too bad it doesn't work like automations, scripts, etc where you can edit it in the UI or the file itself

[dark dirge]

you shouldn't do that there either because it will reorder and reformat your code, including removing any comments

[timid beacon]

Well that explains why I was thinking that, cuz I don't actually ever edit those files haha

[timid beacon]

type: custom:auto-entities
card:
  type: gauge
filter:
  include:
    - entity_id: sensor.disk_use_percent

Why is this giving me the error Entity must be specified? If I change gauge to glance it works fine.

[dark dirge]

Maybe it doesn't support more than one entity and won't work with auto-entities

It generates a list of entities

[timid beacon]

Ah I see. So the underlying card needs to support multiple entities?

[halcyon arrow]

Any idea why or condition seems to not work at all? - type: conditional condition: or conditions: - condition: state entity: media_player.bedroom_speaker state: playing - condition: state entity: media_player.bedroom_speaker state: buffering card: type: custom:mini-media-player entity: media_player.bedroom_speaker hide: source: true progress: true

[fiery ledge]

having a few (max 5) svg icons no longer in the core mdi: set, I am using FontawesomePro CC to be able to use those with the fapro: prefix. Not using ay of the other icons of that component, that seems a bit heavy. Especially since the Fap icons take a lot of space (and maybe activity on first load?)

can we not use another lighter tool for those (custom) icons? I do like to use them as .svg, and not have to use the full path - D code of the svg icon

[opaque kiln]

You can't use or in a conditional card. You can only list some conditions and they all have to be true for the conditional card to display the card. https://www.home-assistant.io/dashboards/conditional/ If you really need this behaviour with a conditional card, create a template binary sensor that is on when the media player is playing or buffering, then use a conditional card that shows if that template binary sensor is on.

[fiery ledge]

we can. https://github.com/Mariusthvdb/Custom-icons. Initial, thanks to the collected powers of the internet / ha community

[naive topaz]

hey, im using ui lovelance minimalist and want to hide (or if possible deactivate) the original lovelance for a cleaner interface. any ideas how to achieve this?

[tacit cave]

make ui minimalist your default and switch the autogenerated to a secondary

https://www.home-assistant.io/dashboards/dashboards/

or delete the autogenerated

[naive topaz]

how can i delete the autogenerated?

[tacit cave]

You replace the autogenerated with the ui minimalist

I have no idea how you implemented it so you'll actually have to share details and this most likely can only be done through yaml.

[turbid violet]

is there any countdown timer card?

[slow sundial]

if it's a Timer entity, an entity card would show the timer. but you are probably looking for something a bit fancier?

[turbid violet]

I am looking for a countdown timer to check on my dishwasher

[slow sundial]

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/create-a-countdown-timer/146660/7

[turbid violet]

entity is "sensor.dishwasher_remaining_time" from LGsmart thinq

I tried https://github.com/pmongloid/flipdown-timer-card but it doesn't seems to be working

[slow sundial]

that card is meant to work with https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/timer/

[turbid violet]

timer already exist, as separate entity, I just need it to be displayed in a fancier way

[slow sundial]

yes, but is that sensor.dishwasher_remaining_time a Timer type of entity?

[opaque kiln]

It is not. I have a LQ ThinQ thing also.

[turbid violet]

how do we switch as X?

I mean convert it to a timer?

[opaque kiln]

Lol I wouldn't. The sensor already gives you the time remaining, just display the sensor state.

But if you really want to use the flip down timer card, you'll need to create a separate timer helper.

[turbid violet]

I mean how do we display it in a more fancier way instead?

[opaque kiln]

Then when the dishwasher starts, call service timer.start on your timer helper with the duration set to the value of the remaining time.

Though it doesn't seem that the duration accepts templates...so how to get the remaining time into the timer.start duration attribute is an additional step to overcome.

[dark dirge]

anything under data: can be templated

[opaque kiln]

I guess the qn is, how badly do you want to display a value (that is already the info you want) in a fancier way?

[turbid violet]

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/really-simple-big-clock/255971 something like this

[slow sundial]

you could also try to format with css in a card-mod to make it "fancier". but probably a lot of work

[turbid violet]

play with the options and see if it fits your needs

you might actually have to click on things and play around 😉

[turbid violet]

but it isn't display the time,

[tacit cave]

my man, you always do this

look at the config

read the options for the card

it's literally in your face

turn things on and off until you see what you want to see

if you want to see the state... would you click on 'show state'?

            width: 1195px !important;
          }

but it wont work

[polar kelp]

Where in that tree is the card-mod element with that style in it? Is it inside the ha-card element?

[errant birch]

yes

[polar kelp]

Try yaml style: | :host { width: 1196px; }

[errant birch]

wow, that did it !!!

been at it for hours, thank you soooo much 👍

[opaque kiln]

Haha thanks, I like my cards small and I use custom:button-card. That is also super flexible.

[turbid violet]

let's give it a try

another one for the lights https://github.com/mattieha/slider-button-card

[frosty flower]

            type: custom:button-card

I have my Weather service setup, working fine. I have the named weather card installed through HACS. But i have literally no idea on how to create a new dashboard card with that custom card

[shell torrent]

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/apexcharts-card-a-highly-customizable-graph-card/272877 maybe?

[tacit cave]

I don't think there's any plotting card that does what you want.

typically with small graphs, and huge thumbs, it makes physically clicking on points near impossible

[fiery ledge]

flip the phone into landscape, and the graph fills the screen?

[shell torrent]

That may depend on your thumb 🙂
For me it works quite well. But since you by design have your finger right on top of what you want to see - it's definitely not perfect.

It is much smoother to follow a chart's values in the apex-chart than the history chart

[fiery ledge]

hmm. guess youre right, but is that a more-info? Jack posted a more-info, and I tested those here, they flip correctly.

[tacit cave]

good to know

just keep in mind that it's resource heavy, last I checked that card was poorly optimized but romrider made a bunch of changes to it since then

No, but you could make it using our favourite https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-browser_mod 🙂

[fiery ledge]

at Petro: was just about to type that. It's a great card, but I have to minimize its use because of that

this being my favorite card of all https://community.home-assistant.io/t/apexcharts-card-a-highly-customizable-graph-card/272877/1495

and thats not even using custom-ui 😉

[sudden lotus]

is it possible to have the date of date helpers displayed in the system date format (dd/mm/yyyy in my case)?

[cold bluff]

in an entities card, I am trying to trim a date/time value, so it only shows the date eg '2022-05-13' instead of '2022-05-13 20:13:27+08:00'

I found {% set value = '2019-01-01T13:11:17' %} {{ value.split('T')[0] }}

which works in the dev tools\template but I dont know how to make use of it in the entities card

I tried state: {{ value.split('T')[0] }} but that gives me an error

[trail frigate]

i changed some entities in VSC and refreshed HA , but i dont get the update on frontend ?

i reloaded all YAML Configs, but still the old entity

[tacit cave]

it's displayed based on your language settings

change your langauge settings or override the time format in your user

[tacit cave]

You can't, you have to make a template sensor. Rule of thumb: Templates don't work in the UI.

[sudden lotus]

where can i find those settings?

[tacit cave]

on your user

click your name in the sidebar

[sudden lotus]

oh thanks

i dont think i have ever clicked that before

[tacit cave]

You'll have to elaborate on what you changed.

[opaque kiln]

I use mattieha's slider button a lot too - really neat way to display the state of lights, fans and climates. But there is an issue with the fans as the code hasn't been updated to work with the new fan model in HA. https://github.com/mattieha/slider-button-card/issues/180 I'm using rohank's branch in the meantime to overcome this issue.

[opaque kiln]

You can have a look at how the HACS themes handle themes, eg. https://github.com/JuanMTech/google_dark_theme/blob/master/themes/google_dark_theme.yaml

You can control which user can see each view in the dashboard. You can also control the visibility of individual cards to users using HACS custom components.

[trail frigate]

i created a popup in lovelace - looks like this

https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/tapokuhife.yaml

i already changed the entity to the working one, but in lovelace its still the old broken one and it doesn't update

[tacit cave]

look in your states page for the entity that was created

[mortal holly]

i had a card that has a few wifi switches and also my user with location/area i am currently in. i was trying to add weather with 5 day forcast and high/low to this non weather card but kept getting errors. ideally i want all of my things on one card instead of multiple but adding the weather info (openweathermap iirc) is impossible?

[tacit cave]

Not really sure I understand your question

If you're trying to add a normal forcast card with a forcast entity, it should work

if you're doing something custom, we'll need to know the custom card you're using

[mortal holly]

i am trying to add forecast + high/low for 5 day forecast to a non weather card

sorry im on the phone brb

[tacit cave]

That wont' really be possible unless you have a card that can template

which is custom

[mortal holly]

ok, so there is no way to kind of join two cards into one? ill go back and try again and i will take screen shots of the code editor side. but all i did was try to copy/paste the weather card into the non weather card that had all my wifi switches and user location. would be cool if there way a way to just visually stitch it all together into one single card though. also thanks for your help this far

[tacit cave]

There is ways to do that but it's all custom

and it typically can't be done via the UI

and you'll need card-mod

TLDR: It's advanced

[mortal holly]

card-mod? i have plenty of experience in programming, mainly in C and Perl and very little Python. wish i would have learned more python but ill give it another wack i guess. shouldnt be to bad. so i can look up this card-mod and go from there? thanks again

[tacit cave]

None of it is python

It’s yaml

Card-mod is a custom card

Either way entity rows accept custom cards, so you add the weather card as a row item with custom: in front of the name. Then you use card-mod to remove the border and configure the card like normal

[mortal holly]

that dont seem so bad. thanks ill give it a go

[near kernel]

Hello, I noticed the restart button not working from UI in HACS page after update addons it navigates to blank page, any one knows that?
Thanks 🙏

[azure canopy]

It should redirect you to > YAML

[dark dirge]

it doesn't for me

[sinful ledge]

So I switched from duckdns to cloudflare, and the only thing that appeared to break is my pictures won't load. I think it's some weird cache issue because sometimes they show and sometimes they don't and this happens on all devices

Even my profile pic in the navigation pane has the same issue

[frosty flower]

so if a card shows Visual editor is not supported for this configuration: At path: theme -- Expected a value of type `never`, but received: `"Mushroom-copy"` You can still edit your config in YAML.when i try to do theme: your-theme does that mean it doesnt support per-card themes?

or am i doing this wrong

type: custom:mushroom-light-card
entity: light.kitchen_lights
fill_container: true
hide_state: true
use_light_color: true
show_brightness_control: true
collapsible_controls: true
show_color_temp_control: true
layout: vertical```

[tacit cave]

that means you need to use yaml to configure it

visual editor = clicky ui

non visual editor = yaml

[polar kelp]

It probably does not support individual themeing, no.

One of the main points of mushroom cards is their 100% gui editor, I believe. So if that breaks down you may have done a bad.

[inner stump]

Hey guys,

I’ve made a graph that supposed to monitor and display in- and outgoing traffic from my server. However, it doesnt seem to reset after 24h, instead of that it just adds data to the next day

anyone to help me with this code? https://pastebin.com/fMg4dUBq

[near kernel]

Is not working on pc or mobile, I think is a bug

[azure canopy]

Tested it myself, also not working here.
Funny thing is when I try to go to /config/server_control in the browser, it does redirect properly

[dark dirge]

https://github.com/hacs/integration/issues/2655#issuecomment-1117980221

[near kernel]

Yes , is not big deal, but to people now to fix it 👌🏻

[fiery ledge]

using regular yaml, I now do this```
- type: grid
columns: 6
cards:
- type: custom:button-card
icon: cil:apple-homepod
tooltip: apple-homepod
- type: custom:button-card
icon: cil:apple-homepod-mini
- type: custom:button-card
icon: cil:cellphone-iphone
- type: custom:button-card
icon: cil:laptop-mac
etcetc

this is mererly a testing card, so no further needs, simply need to see the icons

[fiery ledge]

          {% for i in ['apple-homepod','apple-homepod-mini','cellphone-iphone','laptop-mac'] %}
               {{
                { 'type': 'custom:button-card',
                  'icon': "cil: " + i,
                  'tooltip': i
                }
              }},
          {% endfor %}
``` works ok in the template editor, but unfortunately throws errors when used as auto-entities template filter, complaining about ```Unhandled Promise Rejection: Error: Invalid entity ID at position 0: {'type':```

which might be caused by the auto-entities looking for an entity.... which there isnt , Is this something we ca do with lovelace-gen?

[polar kelp]

Try adding a [ before and a ] after all of that

[frosty flower]

Idk, the card didn't seem to change to how the theme was configured 😅

[fiery ledge]

    - type: grid
      columns: 6
      cards:
        - type: custom:auto-entities
          card:
            type: entities
          filter:
            template: |
              [{% for i in ['apple-homepod','apple-homepod-mini','cellphone-iphone','laptop-mac'] %}
                   {{
                    { 'type': 'custom:button-card',
                      'icon': 'cil: ' + i,
                      'tooltip': i
                    }
                  }},
              {% endfor %}]``` gives me a vertical grid inside an entities card... with buttons showing a correct tooltip, but no icon yet. So, progress, but no complete succes yet 🙂

top is the grid/auto-entities, below is the verbose entities

heck, I had a space in the icon line, 'icon': 'cil: ' + i, while it needs to be 'icon': 'cil:' + i,

better, though a bit tiny and dont just get why it doesnt fill the grid as I hoped it would

found it..... ! - type: custom:auto-entities card_param: cards card: type: grid columns: 6 filter: template: | [{% for i in ['apple-homepod','apple-homepod-mini','cellphone-iphone','laptop-mac'] %} {{ { 'type': 'custom:button-card', 'icon': 'cil:' + i, 'tooltip': i } }}, {% endfor %}]

thanks Thomas!

[frosty flower]

yeah idk whats up but it's showing the default theme even though i have the theme specified

[simple grotto]

Hi, in UI its saying I am running
Version core-2022.5.0

But a newer version is out - normally it just shows I need to update in UI but it's not showing that. I've never had this problem before. Is there a way to fix it so the update shows up in the UI again?

Thanks!

[buoyant gorge]

Hi all. Is it possible in Lovelace to provide a way to select one or more lights for some action to be taken through, say, a button. E.g., if I press the button, the lights are passed as parameters to a script.

[simple grotto]

also my "Server Control" page does not want to load either

[dark dirge]

Review your logs

[simple grotto]

nothing showing in logs

I figured out the Server Control but still can't see the update

[lavish solar]

What determines whether an entity shows the battery icon or a % in the entity list? I have 2 battery powered zwave devices indicating the battery differently. They have same device class, unit, and state class.

[frosty flower]

really liking how you can use layout card to hide cards depending on screen size, but is there any way to make edit mode only show cards visible in your current view, rather than all cards?

[polar kelp]

No

I suggest experimenting in separate views and then copy-paste the relevant stuff from the code editor for the layout-card.

[fiery ledge]

with core entities: - type: custom:auto-entities card: type: entities title: Test Custom icons state_color: true filter: template: | [{% for i in ['apple-homepod','apple-homepod-mini','cellphone-iphone','laptop-mac','etc'] %} {{ { 'entity':'input_boolean.test', 'icon': 'cil:' + i, 'name': i } }}, {% endfor %}] Cool, only need to auto generate the list of names in my custom-icons plugin repo, and we're set.

[errant plover]

How do I change a picture-entity state-label text color with a card-mod template? This isn't it https://dpaste.org/3geU7

[fiery ledge]

seems I don't have that in my setup 😉 so quick suggestion based on other card-configs: did you try```
style: |
:host {
color: red;
}

[errant plover]

That changes the text colour, but I need it to be templated. This is not valid: https://dpaste.org/DPRQ1

[fiery ledge]

thats remarkable though. whenever I need to test the color, I first change it to the fixed option, like I suggested above, and if that wrks, simply replace it with the template within { }. hmm. my tester: - entity: input_number.power_threshold card_mod: style: | :host { color: {{is_state('input_boolean.test','on')|iif('red','green')}}; } could you check that, just for the sake of it?

I now notice though you have the 2nd style: on another level than the card_mod always uses, and you don't use card_mod: at all?

Thomas, regarding the earlier auto-entities template, I now use this in another card:```
{{
{ 'type': 'custom:button-card',
'entity':'input_boolean.test_custom_icon',
'show_name': false,
'aspect_ratio': '1/1',
'icon': 'cil:' + i,
'label': i,
'show_label': 'true',
'tooltip': i,
'template':'styles_test_custom_icon'
}
}},

[errant plover]

I don't see how that is relevant to a picture element that has it's own style. option That's the issue. How do you use card mod with picture element elements.

[polar kelp]

All of style has to be a string.

[fiery ledge]

At Tom: Not sure. but I would think the core card uses its own specific options, like you do. And, for each element, you should set a card_mod, according to the syntax that goes with that. I did notice the card_mod overview by Ildar doesnt have a picture-element example...

[polar kelp]

On phone

Style: |
  :host{
    Color: {{ template goes here }};
  }```

Ignore autocorrect capitalization

[errant plover]

Ha yeah i got that.

Testing...

[fiery ledge]

thats what I posted in the example isnt it?

[polar kelp]

Yes

[errant plover]

I missed the braces before. Re-trying...

Nope. https://dpaste.org/xRB5k#L23

[fiery ledge]

just try this: - type: picture-elements image: /local/homeassistant/homeassistant.png elements: - type: state-label entity: input_boolean.test style: top: 33% left: 77% card_mod: style: | :host { color: {{is_state('input_boolean.test','on')|iif('red','white')}}; }

works here

changed to white to be more visible

[errant plover]

The template works in dev tools and this is accepted but does not change the colour:```

• type: state-label
  entity: sensor.air_temperature
  style:
  top: 0%
  left: 40%
  card_mod:
  style: |
  :host {
  color: |-
  {% if states('sensor.weatherflow_air_temperature')|float(0) > 10 %}
  magenta;
  {% else %}
  cyan;
  {% endif %}
  }

Tried with and without the ;

This does work though:```

• type: state-label
  entity: sensor.weatherflow_air_temperature
  style:
  top: 33%
  left: 77%
  card_mod:
  style: |
  :host {
  color: cyan
  }

Are multi line templates not supported?

Yeah, this does not work: ```

• type: state-label
  entity: sensor.weatherflow_air_temperature
  style:
  top: 33%
  left: 77%
  card_mod:
  style: |
  :host {
  color: |-
  {{'cyan'}}
  }

So I have to fit a template to switch 5 colours on one line 😣

[fiery ledge]

quick: you can create template sensor, and use the state of that sensor

[errant plover]

Ugh. Seven template sensors.

[polar kelp]

Remove the |- after color

All of that is css, not yaml

[errant plover]

Thank you!

Result: https://i.imgur.com/CqqW3rO.png

[polar kelp]

You can also do {{ ”magenta” if state(…) > … else ”cyan” }} by the way.

[errant plover]

Not if I have four choices though. ```

• type: state-label
  entity: sensor.tank_temperature
  style:
  top: 48%
  left: 40.5%
  card_mod:
  style: |
  :host {
  color:
  {% set temp = states('sensor.tank_temperature')|float(0) %}
  {% if temp > 50 %}
  #e45e65
  {% elif temp > 40 %}
  #e0b400
  {% elif temp > 30 %}
  #0da035
  {% else %}
  #039BE5
  {% endif %}

[fiery ledge]

how odd, I did have this in some recent history, and saw no issues style: | :host { --paper-item-icon-color: {% set level = states(config.entity)|float %} {% if level == 0 %} black {% elif level < 1 %} maroon .... {% elif level < 33000 %} lightskyblue {% elif level < 40000 %} lightblue {% elif level < 40000 %} lightcyan {% else %} azure {% endif %} ; }

[errant plover]

Yeah it works now that I took this advice from Thomas <#frontend-archived message>

[fiery ledge]

granted it was on another card config, but still:```

• type: custom:auto-entities
  card:
  title: Test auto coloring light level (lux) sensors
  type: entities
  filter:
  include:
  - entity_id: sensor.*_sensor_light_level_raw

a ok, sorry, I missed that. Glad you got it working, great cool card you have there

[errant plover]

Thanks now I just have to use the data to work out how to get the power use down.

[fiery ledge]

hehe, was going to ask you that.... what is your main point of focus in that depiction 😉

[errant plover]

It all started after watching this https://youtu.be/eLMBLgCQdnU

[pine plinth]

I have a picture_entity card in my interface with the following: ``

• type: "picture-entity"
  entity: camera.garage
  name: "Garage"
  show_state: false
  aspect_ratio: 16:9``

However, when clicking on it I would like to have the same live view in large - what am I missing? Upon clicking it does open a larger viewing window but loads no live stream

adding camera_view: live actually breaks the live view in the front end and does not allow pressing at all anymore

[uncut reef]

I have a card which has 11 buttons on it and one "Glance" as the 12th box. Is it possible to conditionally hide/show that glance?

The main card is a grid card with 4 columns

[vestal aspen]

What did you use to measure the temperatures?

[inner stump]

Hi, is there way to combine two modules button-card and multiple-entity-row. I want pop-up window when I tap on button to show multiple sensors data.

  - type: custom:button-card
    entity: switch.laundry
    tap_action:
      action: more-info
      entity: sensor.plug_computer_energy_today```

[dark dirge]

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

[inner stump]

thx i will try

[fiery ledge]

Sure, didn’t you try to use a conditional card on the glance?

The grid will ignore the card if the condition isnt met

[errant plover]

A bunch of Dallas one-wire ds18b20 sensors connected via ESPHome.

[vestal aspen]

Cool! How did you put the temperature probe in the water?

[vestal aspen]

By that I meant physically not in a Frontend

[frosty flower]

i cant get per card themes working ;-; im using theme: theme here as the first line in my card, its not changing anything

how do i get this working

[frosty flower]

also is it possible to get, for example, the person. entity of the current logged in user?

[plush pawn]

Metrology looking nice

the little blur around the pop ups are nice too

[prisma crown]

that's a css drop shadow if i'm not wrong. not exactly blurred - does have the blur-radius param tho

[fiery ledge]

it is. using button card: - type: custom:button-card show_label: true label: | [[[ return 'System variables:' + '<br>' + 'UserID: ' + hass.user.id + '<br>' + 'Username: ' + hass.user.name + '<br>' + 'Owner: ' + hass.user.is_owner + '<br>' + 'Admin: ' + hass.user.is_admin + '<br>' + 'DeviceID: ' + localStorage['lovelace-player-device-id'] + 'Version: ' + hass.config.version + '<br>' + 'Href: ' + window.location.href + '<br>' + 'Path: ' + window.location.pathname + '<br>' + 'UserAgent: ' + navigator.userAgent + '<br>' + 'Entity id: ' + window.browser_mod.entity_id; ]]] 😉

or use markdown and simply use {{user}} in content: - type: markdown content: | Hello, {{user}}

[fiery ledge]

like:```

• type: custom:hui-element
  card_type: markdown
  theme: plex
  etcetc
  or:
  card:
  type: entities
  title: Weeralarm
  theme: meteoalarm
  entities:
  • binary_sensor.meteoalarm_brabant
  • sensor.weer_alarm```

ofc depends on what you have set in that theme, which should be available. check that in the services page, or profile settings

[turbid violet]

previously we could view the ram usage of supervisor, core and OS under supervisor. How to view that now?

[fiery ledge]

where did you look? (hint: try Settings/System, and then check the various icons)

anyone using Apexcharts-card around? I have a question/issue on a constantly updating card I can not explain: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/apexcharts-card-a-highly-customizable-graph-card/272877/1608 please have a look and see if you can spot the issue?

But a newer version is out - normally it just shows I need to update in UI but it's not showing that. I've never had this problem before. Is there a way to fix it so the update shows up in the UI again? Theres no error logs so I am not sure how to fix this - I can update manually but thats a bit of a pain every release

[sly pulsar]

Settings-System-Updates-Show skipped (if you skipped a update?).

[obtuse sundial]

For some reason, 4 out of 5 of my NODEMCU's temperature sensors are now showing up with their units in °C rather than °F. (dining room is an ecobee and the bathroom is a heated floor I installed 2yrs ago)
I do stay current with updates, and I did make sure the right time zone and unit of measurement is defined in the UI. I even went so far as to remove the hardcoded config from the yaml file.
I've compared the settings in ESPHome for each sensor, and I have checked the configuration in the UI.. they are all the same. Where else can I look?

sorry I was running core-2022.5.3

I updated manually to 2022.5.4

[dark dirge]

it doesn't check constantly. I think it's once a day

you can manually check for updates from the three-dot menu

[simple grotto]

I did a manual check at the time and it still said no update available

[dark dirge]

that is usually indicative of a network issue

Hmm ok - I guess I will just wait and see what happens next release 🙂 thanks!

[sage owl]

Hi, I'm getting crazy here, I'm building a floor plan dashboard but the air conditioner icon doesn't change color when the state changes

Need help, tks in advance

[quaint snow]

say i wanted to make the section in the yellow box a conditional card, that depending on which room you pressed, changed all room buttons to display the room instead, would that be achievable with the state switch card or the conditional card?

Essentially would like it to switch from this. to the room view

[polar kelp]

With state-switch, yes. https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-state-switch#hash

[quaint snow]

By using the hash method, would I put what I want to display in that section under the content: field of each page?

[polar kelp]

No. content is part of the markdown cards I used as examples.

[nova bloom]

is there a way to have a button in HA lovelace that when you click it, it opens a window (kind of like More Info screen). showing a number of different toggles for entities (sort of like entities card)?

[polar kelp]

Legacy groups will do that

[nova bloom]

i just tried making both binary sensor and switch group in the UI but neither allowed me to add my input_booleans.

[dark dirge]

you can't make legacy groups in the UI

[kind shell]

Groups allow the user to combine multiple entities into one.

Command '~group' was invoked by: RobC

[nova bloom]

got it! will go to my config!

[frosty flower]

i cant use this to get the person.user's state, can i?

[dark dirge]

you can, but it's a hassle

[polar kelp]

If you're lucky {{user}} is {{states('person.'+user)}}. will do it.

If you're not it can be signlificantly more involved.

[dark dirge]

yeah, I'm going to retract my comment. I'm not sure how to do it

I thought you could go from user to the id and then index into person state objects, but I don't know how to do the first part

[polar kelp]

I think user is the friendly_name.

Which is not necessarily unique.

[dark dirge]

and I don't think you could iterate through users in a template even if it was

[vestal aspen]

Does anyone know how to select the dom element of a history-chart? It seems that it is generated a while after the page is loaded so that card-mod doesn't seem to know how to look for it. https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-mod/issues/200

(awww GitHub now generates a nice cute opengraph thumbnail)

[formal pulsar]

I feel like I'm missing something terribly obvious. I'm trying to pull some static images from remote webcams. Simple image URL. I can use the generic camera and that works fine, but as I understand it, that's constantly polling even if nobody is viewing it. Probably a waste. I can use Markdown with HTML, but then I lose the click-expand lightbox/modal (and no native css afaik). As far as I can tell, all the other image entity type cards don't do an expanding lightbox either.

Am I missing something simple? View an image URL and provide a click-expand lightbox, ideally without a lot of custom stuff..

[fiery ledge]

on iterating person entities and their attributes.user_id, I have things like: message: > {% set message = states('input_select.intercom_message') %} {% set device = states('input_select.intercom') %} {% set language = states('input_select.intercom_language') %} {% set id = trigger.to_state.context.user_id %} {% set time = now().timestamp()|timestamp_custom('%d %b: %X') %} {% set user = states.person|selectattr('attributes.user_id','eq',id)|first %} {% set user = user.name %} {{time}}: {{user}} played "{{message}}" on {{device}} in {{language}}

or even the other way round:```
data:
message: >

Hi, i have problem with 2 modules, browser_mod, button_card, each one works normally, but when I used it for popup, i get strange result from variables (undefined), and this is code:

  tap_action:
    action: fire-dom-event
    browser_mod:
      command: popup
      title: Title
      card:
        type: custom:button-card
        variables:
          number: 1
        name: >
          [[[
              return `<span>${variables.number}</span>`
          ]]]```

Hello, I'm observing what appears to be a display issue on the selectors for "show ignored/disabled integrations" The check shows for a split second then disappears. functionally, the selectors still work, it's just they don't appropriately display the current selection. Do I need to report this somewhere?

[jovial copper]

@polar kelp not sure if you can assist with this: https://github.com/Madelena/Metrology-for-Hass/pull/16#issuecomment-1129359753

Specifically the following: It's behaving strange tho, the css properties only apply if I refresh themes while the more info dialog is up..

[uncut reef]

Can I change the "theme" of a sensor card based on an attribute/state of a sensor?

I have a grid with 6 sensors on it. I would like the box to be one theme if a separate sensor is value true, and another theme if that other sensor is false

[obsidian bear]

Good Morning 👋
can someone tell me how to create such a view?

[fiery ledge]

anyone around using Fontawesome via HACS? I installed it, configured the integration, restarted 2ce , but can not use it in the icon-picker. it simply wont showup using any of the acronyms or the fapro:

[fiery ledge]

and it is back again. how odd, must have been a cache thing then..

[fiery ledge]

Thomas, would you still be willing to consider moving the custom_icon folder https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-fontawesome#using-with-custom-icons to a user selectable folder (like to keep the root as clean as possible..so /local/custom_icons eg). I did try to change that in the source file, but it errors out...

[polar kelp]

I'd rather not just to avoid more security considerations with exposing directories. But changing CUSTOM_ICONS_PATH in __init__.py should do it.

[oak parcel]

Hey all, just a small question to guide me in the right direction. I've a 3d printer that will go offline when I'm not printing. Is there any nice card, to show a sort of 'placeholder' or 'disabled' styling to say that the printer is offline? Instead of the 'not available' text HA provides itself? Also the camera that is not showing etc.

[slow sundial]

did you manage to do this? I'm also interested but not really seeing how to use legacy groups for this

[polar kelp]

You can use a conditional card or row to only display it when available.

[nova bloom]

You create them in config file. Does that help?

[fiery ledge]

thats what I hoped for, however, using local/custom_icons/ instead of custom_icons/ to move them to the www folder wont go...

[slow sundial]

but how do you make open a window in the UI (like the more info). with a button of the group?

[tacit cave]

that's typically a hold

click, hold -> more info

[nova bloom]

Button. Then change the setting on the hold action to show more info

[slow sundial]

ah, ok got it, thanks

[tacit cave]

hold action should already default to that on buttons

[slow sundial]

so the more info of a group shows all entities in that group

[tacit cave]

yes because it's more info on the group

[slow sundial]

if I want to show text in that window, would putting a text helper in that group work? or is there an easier way?

[tacit cave]

No, that's custom

if you want custom more-info, you need to use custom cards to do that

it will require browser-mod

which is a custom integration

[slow sundial]

ok, will look into browser-mod then. tkx

[polar kelp]

Why can't I write anything?

Now I can...

[polar kelp]

/local/ is only in the frontend. Try CUSTOM_ICONS_PATH = "www/custom_icons/"

Apparently you can't start a discord message with /...

[slow sundial]

flashback to mirc commands

[fiery ledge]

Ok thanks will try and report back!

[slow sundial]

ok maybe a stupid question but does browser mod consider the companion app a browser?

[vapid field]

Hi! I have a weather warning on my dashboard and I'm wondering if there is a yaml code to adjust the height of the warning?

[fiery ledge]

At Thomas: Yes, can report it works! Great, thank you very much. I'll level with you: I was in fact only looking for a way to use custom_icons, and would rather leave out all Fapro options/icons from then system completely. Is there an easy way we can carve that out? Or maybe even have a config option for that on the integration panel?

- title: Custom icons
  path: custom_icons
  icon: fapro:ikea-death-star

[polar kelp]

There's pretty much no overhead anymore. Only the icons you actually use are downloaded from the backend.

[tacit cave]

🤣 I do the same thing with fa

[polar kelp]

But I've also been thinking that it's shifted focus a bit.

I also only use it for custom icons.

[fiery ledge]

but all icons are downoaded locally..?

[tacit cave]

I haven't noticed any latency or issues with it. I removed them in a fork and saw no difference

they don't take up much space though

anyways, I decided I didn't want to maintain the fork and just use FA now

[fiery ledge]

I published a custom resource for these local icons, but it requires manual editing of the path's in the .js file. Simply jotting an icon in there is way easier 😉. Which made me have a look if I could simply carve that out of Fapro, and only leave the custom_icons bit. Wasn't that easy for me...

[tacit cave]

yes, but then you have to maintain it

there's basically no reason to do what you're doing unless you're worried about ~8 mb of svg files

[fiery ledge]

sure, but thats ok isnt it

[tacit cave]

I'd give you my fork but I deleted the branch

actually, i deleted the fork

[fiery ledge]

did you only remove the icons, or also adapt the code of the integration, because thats what I was trying to do.

[tacit cave]

I removed the icons and the loading of said icons

doesn't matter, fork is gone

[fiery ledge]

a too bad, thanks anyways.

[tacit cave]

it's not that hard, just remove the for loop on the brands, etc in the init file. Format the main.js file and remove window.customIcons.fab, and the corresponding dict item

for each type

[fiery ledge]

with 'format the main.js file, you mean like https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-fontawesome/blob/master/js/main.js ?

[quaint snow]

@polar kelp - I'm playing around with the state-switch card. The two buttons I have on my test dashboard change the stack below it as they should, great. But is there a way that those buttons disappear and just the new view displays, then with a home button navigate back to the original?

[polar kelp]

Just put the buttons in the stacks

And a special default one that's your "home screen"

[quaint snow]

https://www.codepile.net/pile/Wrl2R8a6

thats the code I am playing with, the buttons would go in the second section?

instead of the first?

[oak parcel]

Thanks, will look into that one!

[woeful light]

hello, I'm usually providing help to the portuguese users not so kin of speaking/writing other then their own language. Today is the day I come here to get help.

Im following the instructions in https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/operating-system/debugging/ on HASS version core-2022.5.4 Installation Type Home Assistant OS.

Somewhere in there it says "From the UI, navigate to the Supervisor system page and choose "Import from USB"." <-- I can't seem to find this in the new version, nor do i find someone in both portuguese or english spoken fora that already came across the same dificulty.

I would very much apreciate the help finding this in version 2022.5.4 UI.

[polar kelp]

The next sentence says "Alternatively, the file will be imported from the USB when the Home Assistant OS device is rebooted."
I take that to mean you could try rebooting the device with the USB plugged in and it should set it up automatically.

[wheat current]

It was decided to move out of the UI
Use the alternative route or ha os import

[hybrid lodge]

How can I automatically update a Lovelace card with entities like HA UI does before you take control? Thanks

[polar kelp]

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

[formal pulsar]

Any thoughts on this? Or am I wrong about Generic Camera?

[stuck forge]

is there anyway to make a card expand two columns would love to make the camera view bigger but still remain within the same grid element

[fiery ledge]

anyone else seeing this (unable to find icon for domain threshold) flooding the inspector console in config/devices/dashboard (helpers)

[polar kelp]

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/generic/ ”Limit refetch to URL change” maybe?

[formal pulsar]

Thanks @polar kelp , I did do that (combined with a mechanism to make the url change every 10min- &noop-refresh={{ now().minute//10 }} )..

but as I understand it, it's polling 24/7, even if someone only looks every couple days?

seems like a simple HTML image would be much more efficient (and faster, when it's actually used)

My goal isn't so much to save bandwidth, as to not abuse the service it's polling.

[polar kelp]

Maybe you want an iframe card?

But that won’t give you the popup either…

[formal pulsar]

Well, that doesn't get me the modal/lightbox .. yeah

The site also didn't seem to like cross-origin, but I could have probably worked around that with an http proxy

Markdown card would be nice also, if it did css/js natively 🙂

[fiery ledge]

right...thought I had it fixed in a shamelessly copied CC custom_icons, and in fact I saw the icons appear and being listed! slimming down a bit more, and things went downhill after that.... resulting in __init__ assert not prefix or prefix.startswith("/"), prefix AssertionError: www/custom_icons/ whihc must have something to do with: DATA_EXTRA_MODULE_URL = 'frontend_extra_module_url' LOADER_URL = f'/{DOMAIN}/main.js' LOADER_PATH = f'custom_components/{DOMAIN}/main.js' ICONS_URL = 'www/custom_icons/' ICONLIST_URL = 'www/custom_icons/' ICONS_PATH = 'www/custom_icons/'

does the error mean I need a / in front of those URL's?

the error mentions in async_setup hass.http.register_static_path( which I have set like: hass.http.register_static_path( ICONS_URL, hass.config.path(ICONS_PATH), True )

[hybrid lodge]

Thank you, I been trying to install this using the configuration.yaml , but the link is broken in the readme. says "see dashboards and views".

[polar kelp]

Yeah… that’s old. Just use HACS.

You won’t regret the minute spent setting that up.

[fiery ledge]

Thomas, don't want to impose at all, so feel free to ignore, but if you have a spare second, id appreciate if you'd look with me at https://github.com/Mariusthvdb/custom-icons/blob/main/custom_components/custom_icons/__init__.py and why I don';t get any errors, and no icons either. 😭 I must have f'ed up, but don't know where... And Petro ofc, goes without saying, since we discussed this morning

[polar kelp]

Don’t change any of the _URL variables. They have to match what the .js file expects.

Same with DOMAIN. If you change that you have to change the frontend part too (.js)

[fiery ledge]

Ok thanks, I did edit that a bit too but might have forgotten that indeed..

[hybrid lodge]

Thank you! Finally got it...made a huge mess trying to do it manually! All good now. cheers

[fiery ledge]

Yah, domain is working ok, I had it running. Until I overdid it in the init

[sage owl]

Any help?

Just want the air conditioner icon to turn blue when AC state is "cool" on a picture element card

[polar kelp]

Only very few types of icons change color.

You can make it happen with card-mod, but that has a learning curve of its own.

[hybrid lodge]

Is there a way to get the Yaml code from the Automatically generated UI without taking "control" over it? Basically I want to use the Autogenerated cards as a starting point and modify them in another view and make them dynamic with the auto-entities function.

[dark dirge]

not easily. It looks like you have to take control just to get to the raw editor

[hybrid lodge]

thanks, guess I could just take control, copy paste what I want, delete the lovelace file and move the other config files. Reboot, have it regenerate then move everything back...seems a little labour intensive...but seems like the only way?

It's probably a very dumb way of doing it, but it's all I can think of ATM\

[dark dirge]

theoretically you can go find the JSON file in config/.storage and convert the relevant part back to YAML 🤷

[hybrid lodge]

Oh! yes, very good. thank you. I didn't know it was a jason file in the .storage folder! very helpful thanks.

[dark dirge]

it looks like maybe it just generates it on the fly

I just created one and the only mention of it is in lovelace_dashboards with no JSON content that I can find

but as soon as I take control of it, it dumps the JSON file in there

[stuck forge]

best I can do with camera card would really love to make it take over 2 columns on larger displays any way how?

[hybrid lodge]

Yes, that's what I see too. I think i can work with this, thanks!

[hollow valley]

Man, I love setting up dashboards. So good.

Even have cards that'll show when it's things like trash days so I don't have to think about it.

[dark dirge]

regrettably, it does not take the trash out

[hybrid lodge]

Wow..this program is awesome. No idea why it took me so long to set up home assistant properly.

[sudden topaz]

Hi, I'm having trouble setting the colour of a button properly. at the moment, I'm doing it this way:
https://paste.taibsu.net/?baec16a2ee8368b6#2FY9v5pmL7T5UntEP7KizZsvnoHU5WKV3YfGfDdNNz3G
is hs_color the wrong way of setting my button's colour depending on a binary sensor's state properly?

[bright sphinx]

Is there a way to mimic how the default admin dashboard works in a dashboard that is controlled by yaml? I'd like to have a Lights card that updates when new devices are added.

[dark dirge]

look into this: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities

[bright sphinx]

Thanks, so not possible without a plugin?

[frosty flower]

how can i use card mod (or something else) to vertically center a card?

[frosty flower]

also is it possible to use kiosk mode on a specific view? it seems like i need to refresh in order for it take become active

[late creek]

good morning, is it possible to change the color from a badges depend on the value?

[fiery ledge]

sure it is, did you check any of the examples in the pinned link above?

[frozen olive]

Hey all - anyone experiencing an issue where selecting an entity when you search in a card configuration, it doesn't seem to select it? You have to type out the full domain.entity_id for it to work

[fiery ledge]

dont think you can use Kiosk mode anything other than globally., You can however use card-mod-theming to conditionally hide elements. wont be a light feat though. I guess youd have to make a dedicated theme for that view and set it.

[quaint snow]

@polar kelp - only if you have a moment, could you look at my formatting here? https://www.codepile.net/pile/AObV39O7
It is throwing an invalid config. I have just one button at the top which should act as a home button to take it back to p1, then the navigation buttons are nested in the stacks as you suggested, each with a tap_action to the respective path which is listed below. Just cannot get it right 😦

[reef wadi]

anyone have suggestions to use media_player.volume_(up/down) that doesn't force a 10% volume change? I've found some old code that uses volume_set, but nothing seems to work within a button card. this is just one example of something i've tried. i just can't figure out what's missing here:

https://i.imgur.com/k1beADO.png

code text: https://paste.debian.net/1241414/

everything i found seems to be using the "data_template:" line, which is not present in a default volume_set, eg: https://paste.debian.net/1241416/

[reef wadi]

just ended up using node red to sort this out

[hallow lotus]

Hi all, I've got an odd issue with a card. It seems to work/error somewhat randomly, with page refreshes changing between the two sporadically. I've tried to replicate, but can't seem to. And searching for the error yields nothing that seems to be related.

It does seem to error more often than work, and it seems to work more often on mobile

This is what it looks like when it works, for reference:

[supple bear]

Does anyone know if theres some trick to get fontawesome working. I have installed the integration and restarted HA. Instead of say mdi:heart I'm trying to use say fas:heart but the icons don't show up where as the mdi ones do. Did I miss some other step thats not documented on the doc for fontawesome haas page https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-fontawesome

Refreshing the browser doesn't work. I tried adding a custom svg into my config/custom_icons/, one called frying-pan.svg. I tried referencing it as fapro:frying-pan and fapro:frying-pan#fullcolor

I have a feeling the docs might need extra instructions, ie after doing x you need to refresh y / restart the integration?

[plush pawn]

I actually kinda have the same issues you are experiencing and I do agree there can be more documentation here, I rebooted HA after installing the HACS addon, and rebooted again after installing the intergration and that seemed to do the trick

however while FA icons show up on my windows pc and a family member's iphone, icons dont show up on my android phone

I am pretty sure fapro is reserved for FA Pro users, but I have pro so I am not really sure

[bronze mortar]

Yes. Same here with the companion app and mobile browser. Cache is cleared. iOS 15.5 and HA 2022.5.5 … do you have any solution ?

[rich lotus]

Any way of stopping an iframe URL from identifying it as a "mobile" device? For some reason https://www.rain-alarm.com/ redirects to play.google.com to install the rain alarm app whereas on a desktop it goes directly to the website???

[raw stream]

Yes -- I have this problem in MS Edge. You can select the item with arrow keys, but mouse click does not work. This problem was around a few months back and disappeared, so some sort of regression in 2022.4 I think

[bronze mortar]

https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues/12733 << should be this issue I think.

I would like to use it to display Grid import/export.

yo guys rq

im so confused

how can i make a button on the frontend that calls a service

i have a service called rest_command.garagedoor_open

on lovelace

[polar kelp]

Three dots ()
✏️ Edit Dashboard
➕ Add Card

[vagrant shore]

IS the only way to move cards on the frontend is by up/down arrows? Is there a way to drag and drop the cards where I want them?

Oooh, cool, found a custom repo to do it: https://github.com/zsarnett/Custom-Grid-View

[dark dirge]

That was in furious development with much fanfare a couple of years ago, but has been stagnant for a while. I think there were broken corner cases and I don't know if it still works

there was a threat that Zack's employment with Nabu Casa would revive it, but we'll see 🙂

[vagrant shore]

Seems to be working so far. Fingers Crossed and we'll see, lol 😉

Is there a way to fix it so the update shows up in the UI again? Theres no error logs so I am not sure how to fix this - I can update manually but that's a bit of a pain every release

[oak island]

Hey. Where is supervisor panel in newest releases ?

[azure canopy]

Gone, spilt over several other settings

[placid shell]

@errant plover Thanks for the link. I am not sure why this cannot be added as standard functionality. Why would anyone want their sidebar setting cleared every time they clear the browsers cache? Makes no sense to me. I get that maybe they thought people might like to have different options on different devices, but there has to be a better solution than what we have now.

[winter blade]

Is it possible to change the default lovelace dashboard for all devices?

It's now just the default "Overview" page

And also, when I change it on each device, the default overview dashboard disappears from the sidebar. I would still like to access that. How can I fix this?

[ruby nexus]

Experiencing a little problem with the new UI design. I just can't find those buttons where you could reload a single integration without restarting the whole server. They were previously located below the STOP and RESTART buttons.

[winter blade]

@ruby nexus They are located at Dev tools -> YAML config

[ruby nexus]

Oh thanks!

[cloud hatch]

Not sure it's the right channel, but I have a simple problem that's hard to search for

Certain buttons in my dashboard require 2 presses to do anything, like it doesn't detect the first press, what could that be causes by?

[opal wigeon]

how can i change the icon on my main Lovelace UI if the sensor state changes?

[frosty flower]

so is it possible to make an auto enties card hide all entities, including non-filter entities, when there are no filter entities

[frosty flower]

basically i have an auto entity and when it appears, i want a blank card to appear with it, but when its gone, i want the blank card to disappear

[errant plover]

Add show_empty: false to the card definition.

Assuming by "auto entity" you mean this card: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities

[frosty flower]

yeah

show empty to false still keeps the non-filter entities

[errant plover]

What is a "non-filter" entity?

[frosty flower]

sorry, non-filter entry

i dont see it in the documentation but its in the gui

oh, i guess its the equivilent of the "type" special option

[errant plover]

That is not an auto-entities card.

[frosty flower]

im awfuly confused

the link sends me here, too https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities

[errant plover]

show_empty: false only works for the auto-entities card. Your card starts with type: custom:state-switch which is, the custom-state-switch card.

[frosty flower]

right, but this is within the auto entities card

this is the whole card: https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/qaletibutu.yaml

[errant plover]

You can't use cards as row elements without this: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-hui-element

Also you cant use cards as filter elements

You can only use these: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities#filters

[polar kelp]

Layout-card

[frosty flower]

thanks, could you point me a little more in the right direction? which layout and which parameters should i be using?

[polar kelp]

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

Horizontal is a good layout to approximate a horizontal-stack card.

[frosty flower]

so ive got it set up like this:

layout_type: custom:horizontal-layout
cards:```

and the cards i have would show next to each other in a horizontal stack, but here, theyre in two seperate rows, not really sure why

[polar kelp]

Come to think of it, you probably want a grid layout: yaml type: custom:layout-card layout_type: custom:grid-layout layout: grid-template-columns: 33% 66% cards:

[hardy compass]

Hi everyone, i have a Odroid N2+, that i tried learn about but I need to sell it instead.
Wich is the easiest way to make a factory reset on it before selling?
Note; i'm not good at this.😂

[frosty flower]

how can i tell a card not to wrap a row around to the next line and to just truncate the contents

so for example:

all this should be on one line, and if its not, i want the contents that goes to the second line to just not show at all

[static cloud]

how can i change entity icon color based on status of another entity

[dark dirge]

you would use card_mod, which is advanced, or a card that lets you do it natively, like custom button card

[static cloud]

thanks

@errant plover Hi Tom. I installed the customer-sidebar-v2 using HACS, but i cannot get it to find my sidebar-order.json file. HACS installed the addon in www/community/custom-sidebar-v2. In my configuration.yaml for frontend I have tried multiple paths for the extra_module_url, including /local/community/custom-sidebar-v2/custom-sidebar-v2.js and /hacsfiles/custom-sidebar-v2/custom-sidebar-v2.js. I have placed the sidebar-order.json file in the /www directory and in the /www/community/custom_sidebar_v2 directory, but it still didn't get picked up. My sidebar-order.js currently is very simple just to test ```{
"order": [
{
"item": "overview",
"order": 2
},
{
"item": "supervisor",
"order": 1
},

When I use yaml anchors in dashboard/lovelace cards, save, close and edit again, the anchors are gone and the yaml I get is already "compiled" with a lot of repetition.
Is this a known issue? Are there any workarounds to keep the anchors intact when saving/re-editing?

Thanks a lot!

@errant plover I got it to work using the original custom-sidebar HACS addon.

Either in auto entities or generally in home assistant, is there a way to evaluate how long it has been since a certain specific state?

Specifically i want to only include a person entity if it's state has been "home" in the last 24 hours

And if the answer is history stats, is there a way to automatically create an entry for all entities in a domain

[mild pike]

can we bring back the number keypad on the alarm control panel rather than a real keyboard?

[fiery ledge]

that sounds like an auto-entities with filter template....

[frosty flower]

Yeah but it's what want to make as a filter for an auto entities template

[frosty flower]

So I'm looking to have something like

  include:
    - template: {{states('sensor. state_attr('this.entity_id', 'friendly_name')~'_home_value')|float > 0 }}```

Once I figure out how

[dark dirge]

First, this.entity_id shouldn't be in quotes

It's not a string, but a variable

Second, you didn't close the quote after 'sensor.

Third, if you want to concatenate 'sensor.', you need the same ~

[frosty flower]

Yeah I'm not home yet, just on mobile so I was just jotting something rough down

[frosty flower]

so this might be a super dumb question, but how do i include options with an auto entities template?

this is my template

filter:
  template: >-
    {% for person in states.person %}{% if
    states('sensor.'~person.attributes.friendly_name~'_home_value')|float > 0 
    %}{{ person.entity_id}},{% endif %}{% endfor %}
card:
  type: custom:mushroom-chips-card
  alignment: start
show_empty: true
card_param: chips

there are my options:

        type: template
        content: '{{state_attr(''this.entity_id'', ''friendly_name'')}}'
        icon: >-
          {{'mdi:home' if is_state('this.entity_id', 'home') else
          'mdi:home-export-outline'}}
        icon_color: grey
        tap_action:
          action: more-info
        hold_action:
          action: more-info```

with include and exclude you put it somewhere that doesnt exist with template, hence why im a little confused

I just noticed something weird. I changed my theme to MacOS theme. However, when I access HAOS through "homeassistant.local" I get the default white theme. But if I access it through the IP address my router gave it, I get the MacOS theme. Same device. Hell, even the layout and cards are the same, it just gives me a different theme depending on how I access it. Ummmmmm.....WHAT?!

[frosty flower]

different cookie in your browser depending on which url you visit

your browser sees them as 2 different sites

[south sandal]

Why would the theme be different though? Does HAOS think of each possible connection as a whole different system, and apply themes to each connection individually?

The layout stayed the same, so the theme should as well. No reason for it to be different, no matter where I access it from

[frosty flower]

the information is stored in cookies. your browser things .local and your external are seperate websites, so when you visit the .local it reads the cookie for homeassistant.local to return the theme, but when you visit your external, it reads a different cookie to figure out what theme to be

which theme to use is stored locally in your browser as a cookie

[south sandal]

So on every device that will access HAOS UI, I need to set the theme for the whole system all over again.....

[frosty flower]

there's a way to set it for every device, i believe

never tried it myself, so idk if it works, but you should be able to find something on the forums

[south sandal]

I can't imagine this was overlooked. Themes should be set on the host HAOS device, not locally. That would be like saying my browser decides what a website should look like, and it's not up to the website owner. It should be like a website. Remote device asks for website data, and displays what it is given.

Unless there is an actual solution, I'm going to have to stick to the default theme. I'm not setting up the whole system theme on multiple devices. And if I were ever to change the theme somehow, I would have broken the whole system and have to reset every devices theme settings individually again......SMH

[frosty flower]

for most sites, something like dark mode is usually on a browser to browser basis. check youtube.com or the twitter app for example. every device you go to assumes you want the default theme

not saying i dont think there should be a way to set it, ive seen some debate about that, but its not really that unheard of

[south sandal]

I

I'll keep looking. But it looks like theming will be almost last on my list.

I tried using the drag and drop frontend but it was too inconsistent and there hasn't been any development for at least 17 months. What other frontend integrations are there that will allow me more control over the look/feel of my dashboard panels?

[frosty flower]

Are frontend templates processed locally on each device or on the ha machine?

[dark dirge]

Depends on the card. Jinja templates in the backend, JS in the frontend

[dapper grotto]

Hello

is it possible to show on the UI lovelace map a mdi icon not associated to any sensor or entity?

just an icon as label

?

[fiery ledge]

everything has to be inside the filter: template: | [{% for i in ['apple-homepod','apple-homepod-mini','cellphone-iphone','uplighter-2-way'] %} {{ { 'type': 'custom:button-card', 'entity':'input_boolean.test_custom_icon', 'show_name': false, 'aspect_ratio': '1/1', 'icon': 'cil:' + i, 'label': i, 'show_label': 'true', 'tooltip': i, 'template':'styles_test_custom_icon' } }}, {% endfor %}]

note this has the [ ] brackets around the template, without which this particular template didnt resolve in the card. Important thing is there should be a valid list for auto-entities to show. Not all templates are equal in how that is created. tbh I hadnt used the brackets like this before either...

[broken phoenix]

[broken phoenix]

For set a global theme it's possible and custom navbar for all ?

[silent smelt]

Hey hoo what's up, I'm trying desperately to find a list of default colors to color the icons on the dashboard. Is there one?
Many thanks in advance ^^

[kindred anchor]

Is it possible to create a dashboard button for a the "Run Action" of an automation?

or do I need to create a script for that

script it is

[dark dirge]

You can use automation.trigger, but it's better to just make a script

[kindred anchor]

yea figured as much
