Could be possible, cannot consider this as a professional behaviour.
But the same can be said about your responses. No one is obligated to respond to people. Thereâs even a block button on the forums. Anyone is entitled to block anyone.
The 2022.12 color states changes broke the custom button card that I use a lot. One of the work-arounds was to load a css file. I tried this and for some reason Chrome is not finding the file. I have read in the past that css file canât be loaded from resource file. Has this changed? I have no idea how to fix my simple switches which were showing a yellow for on and gray for off. Now it is showing two shades of gray.
Could you post me in PM your css file & a card where it is used?
Please send a short minimal version just to demonstrate the problem.
Cannot say anything more w/o these details.
tbh, thats the one card that has no issues in my config, because you can set just about everything inside it, and are not perse forced to use the default colors in HA.
Whatâs your issue and let us have a look?
Maybe in the dedicated thread on Button-card itself?
with or without obligation, HA devs donât talk to users. Cannot say for sure they donât listen to (maybe they read forums and are prone to make good decisions based on that). But definitively donât confirm that (hence number of posts in this thread).
So what are you talking about?
The overall userâs impression is that we are beating a dead horse. And you are just confirming that.
Uh, Paul has responded multiple times in this thread. No clue what youâre talking about. You also have command central posting ~6 posts up. 
Lets not forget all the dot releases with changes either.

I already posted there with my code. Others have also seen the same issue. Romrider says he is working on a fix (open issue on the card). There are a couple of temporary fixes but I am have difficulties getting them to work. The css file and the code called out in the to open issue is not working for me.
Seriously? I myself have many unanswered questions, some other people too have them here in this thread. And 99% of them were concrete & polite. Do not pretend you do not understand. Seems that some people here just enjoying a situation âuserâs complains are ignoredâ. Here I also mean people who likes posts intended to hide or devalue a problem. Sorry for my broken English.
I tried explaining to you multiple times that it was your approach to the situation thatâs getting you personally ignored. You brushed me off both times. Iâm not sure how else I can tell you. Most other questions were answered pretty quickly aside from random tags 1 to 2 days after he posted.
By all means, keep up what youâre doing. You donât have to take my advice, Iâm not talking to you as a mod. Iâm talking to you as an outside observer to the situation.
Cool Iâll check what youâve posted there. Thx.
Maybe I do have a problem too after all ;-))
Please do not call it âbrushed offâ. I am Russian and may not understand your word clearly. Idioms may not be useful as well. Letâs call it âobjectionâ - since I just objected w/o any desire to offend.
I got your point & opinion.
Thank you for all the help. The yellow is back for me.
My current working code for the icon state and text for the custom button card.
Thank you @Ildar_Gabdullin !!!

Could be less âvariable-dependentâ:
styles:
card:
- width: 80px
- height: 100px
state:
- value: 'on'
styles:
icon:
- color: &ref_color_on red
state:
- color: *ref_color_on
- value: 'off'
styles:
icon:
- color: &ref_color_off gray
state:
- color: *ref_color_off
Surely, you are free to use any theme vars instead of âred/grayâ.
this is something Ive never used, always use the styles for icon on the icon itself, with
either directly
styles:
icon:
- color: var(--icon-color-off) # this is set in my themes which makes the button cards follow that
or based on state:
state:
- value: 'on'
styles:
icon:
- color: green
- animation: blink 2s ease infinite
feel free to have a glimpse at my button_card_templates
for my light buttons, I simply use:
color: auto-no-temperature
which makes the buttons show the actual light color and still works as always, doing
Setting this to auto-no-temperature will behave like home-assistantâs default, ignoring the temperature of the light. By default, if the entity state is off, the color will be var(âpaper-item-icon-color), for on it will be var(âpaper-item-icon-active-color) and for any other state it will be var(âprimary-text-color)
var(--paper-item-icon-active-color) is still properly translated
Why default yellow active state color was changed? imo it doeasnt fit the blue one, see:

Sooo⌠whatâs the best option to fix this disaster at this point? My dashboardâŚlooks like someone vomited a color palette on it. My wife opened up HA after the upgrade and asked me why I wrecked things. All the places where I was using template-entity-row are broken and wonât show state anymore.
Tried using card-mod but looks like that doesnât work anymore. Is using a completely custom theme the only option at this point?
Yes.
Though Iâve been playing with card_mod for dynamic colouring of tiles.
Arg. Not mad at your reply, just the situation⌠just going to downgrade for now so I stop getting ugly looks from the family for the time being. Maybe Iâll stay on the November release for forever
