Hello! I have HA running for a while now and I absolutely love it. When I rename a device I receive the "Do you also want to rename the entity IDs of your entities" pop-up.

I installed the latest version of HAOS on a RPi 3B+ at my neighbours following the install instructions on the Home Assistant website. When I rename a device within this HA environment the pop-up is not shown at all.

Any idea what can be the issue here and how this can be resolved? Renaming dozens of entity ID's per device is not something I enjoy very much 😉

Turn on Advanced Mode in your user settings.

Ok, I feel a bit stupid now. It was that easy, lol. Thanks... 🙂

I think every advanced user who has ever made a new install has forgotten this 😂
