I was really happy to see the CalDAV integration supporting ToDos/Tasks now. That has been one of the features I’ve been really hoping for.
I tried to use a a template in the due_datetime variable of the todo.add_item. However no matter what I tried, I only got an error.
The service call I tried looks something like this:
service: todo.add_item
target:
entity_id: todo.chores
data:
item: Fold the dried Laundry!
description: Fold the dried Laundry!
due_datetime: "{{ (now() + timedelta(hours=36)) }}"
However, even with something like due_datetime: "{{ (now() + timedelta(hours=36)).isoformat(timespec='seconds') }}", i.e. either returning the time as a datetime in the first example or as a str in the second, the service call fails, with the python-caldav package complaining:

Am I doing something wrong after all?

My sensors stopped working after Home Assistant Core 2023.12.0 was installed.
I don’t understand what needs to be done to fix the problem.
Hopefully, someone can tell me what I’m doing wrong.
I can no longer get sensor updates for:
sensor.smart_electric_meter_consumption
sensor.smart_electric_meter_power
sensor.smart_electric_meter_production
Here is my configuration.yaml:

The new climate card does not allow me to add all features into the card. My AC integration has fan modes (low, med, high etc) and swing modes (horiz, vert, both etc) . These are not offered as ‘features’.
As said most if not all thermostats do.
Anyway it’s funny to vote for a feature request (which I will) to get back what was already there in the previous release

It wasn’t related to the app at all, it was a connectivity problem because of my stupid router. I won’t bother anyone here with that… But thanks for the suggestions 
I did some tests and figured it out.
Say you use variable ‘Agenda’, then your template for events was agenda.events
The template now has changed to agenda['calendar.<name>'].events

After update Toshiba air conditioner does not work
Logger: homeassistant.util.package

If having only one mode, will the HVAC modes be suppressed? I really like the clean design…
One mode, in this context would be “ON” and nothing more. There will generally always be two, at least on and off, be it thermostat of and heat on/cool on or thermostat on and cool on and heat on.
Regardless you can control if you see modes or not.
I love the new design of the thermostat, much more modern.
Not correct, I have KNX thermostats providing only heating mode (on). Therefore it would be nice if the one mode will be suppressed as the button is not useful.
Wait, you mean there’s a way to exclude data from being stored in LTS? Can someone point me to where this is documented?
This would be fantastic, for me. I have no use for the vast majority of the LTS data and always wondered why something like this was kept forever, with no exclude and no keep_days options, like we have with the states and events data.
That would also be great, and would be the most logical database design choice. But, alas, it’s actually stored in the same database, albeit in different tables.
Will the auto-logon feature built into all modern browsers still work with this new logon page?
Right now, I rarely see the logon page. At my house, we all use the same account. If we’ve clicked the “keep my logged on” box once on a device, from then on it goes directly to the dashboard, which is what I want.
I’m hoping I don’t have to select from a list of users (there would only be one) every time.
Yes, separate tables, however the comment still stands:

Just in case, like me, someone might have spent the last few weeks adding a new command_line sensor.
This release depreciates
sensor:
- platform: command_line
you now need to use the newer format.
