Thanks, restarting and forcing cache refresh fixed it.

Thanks for the nice update.

But I have a problem with Yale integration. I get an error if I start det integration. The error is “Config flow could not be loaded: {“message”:“Invalid handler specified”}”.
If there anyone the can tell me, how I can fix it?

@salzrat thank you so much! Will look into that and see what I can do to import it to my energy integration :slight_smile:

Any idea how to apply the grid_columns: full format to custom cards? e.g. I have this working for stock weather card, but can’t find a way to implement on a custom apex chart card.

    type: sections
    sections:
      - type: grid
        cards:
          - show_current: true
            show_forecast: false
            type: weather-forecast
            entity: weather.forecast_home
            forecast_type: daily
            secondary_info_attribute: humidity
            layout_options:
              grid_columns: full
          - show_current: false
            show_forecast: true
            type: weather-forecast
            entity: weather.forecast_home
            forecast_type: hourly
            layout_options:
              grid_columns: 4
              grid_rows: 2
          - show_current: false
            show_forecast: true
            type: weather-forecast
            entity: weather.forecast_home
            forecast_type: daily
            layout_options:
              grid_columns: 4
              grid_rows: 2
        column_span: 4
        title: Weather
      - type: grid
        cards:
          - type: custom:apexcharts-card
            ...code removed for brevity...
        column_span: 4

I tried adding the below code snippet , but it results in an apexcharts error

            layout_options:
              grid_columns: full

  1. Make gap between sections the same width as gap between cards within a section.

Hi, I need Sections go SMALL :slight_smile: I have a dashboard on a 7’ tablet with 3 columns defined. but in the tablet, the 3rd column is moved to a new row. I made the cards inside the sections smaller but that just leaves bigger gaps between the section columns. Any way to fix?

Am I only the one having this issue? Tried clearing cache, but same issue.

I have a 4-core Intel machine with an SSD and haven’t had any problems with Home Assistant + MariaDB until today.
The only thing is that my VM keeps growing. To perform this migration it went from about 56 to 72GB.

I like to have yearly graphs and think that someday historical data may become useful for AI or other research.

Thanks for your answer. Love home assistant!

I wonder if there will ever be a victron integration

I have an automation that sets an alarm to my phone when you say “Set an alarm in X minutes”, I have exposed it to LLMs, but it does not work with any, seems like they do not know how to replace the X or something.
I tried with creating a script that sets the alarm in one minute, so they use the timing functionality, but it does not seem to work neither, sometimes it answers that it is not possible to set timer for the device, or they set the alarm in one minute, so they just run the script.

You’ll need to create a set of custom intent scripts to get that to work.

FYI you should never have to restart for frontend changes to take effect. Only refreshing cache. The frontend lives in your browser.

I have some automations which play sound (MP3 Media) on Apple Homepod mini. After the update no more sound playing (even if it says „Action run successfully“).
I restored my daily backup and it works fine again.
The issue is reproduceable: I did the update again —> no sound
Restored my backup again: works fine

Rgds,

UPDATE: I just installed 2024.9.1 and issue no longer exists

Great thanks for your help Chris I’m glad Hive still works for you, and thanks for being such a helpful human being. As mentioned it works for me too as I rolled back.

All my sensors are report back in English now?
“Zuhause” is "Home, other sensors are on/off instead of any translation that was present before the update…
Did i miss something?
UPDATE: As usual users fault - clearing cache did the trick, all back to normal :slight_smile:

I’m not seeing the untracked energy at all. Is there a setting that needs to be enabled?

For me, it took a little waiting after the reboot and some refreshes before it appeared.

Look for the hidden entities might be there

I did the upgrade yesterday, I think that should be plenty of time for that to appear…
