Thanks Tadies but I’m really confused still.
I downloaded the theme from HACS and applied to after making the configuration.yaml file changes as stated. (They were already in place).
After applying the theme to my user profile the small theme changes where applied, but no wallpaper. The wallpaper was the main driver.
I’m not familiar with this at all and have limited knowledge and skills with HASS.
I wasn’t tying to assign a wallpaper per view/dashboard, which is what the “RAW configuration” seems to imply.
Under my default dashboard page, under the first page I’ve set:
Blockquote
background-image: >-
center / cover no-repeat fixed
url(‘/hacsfiles/themes/ios-themes/homekit-bg-blue-red.jpg’)
lovelace-background: var(–background-image)
Whilst YAML is good, it’s made no difference at all.
Even if this did work, I don’t want a set this up on each and very dashboard. I was hoping to assign a universal theme across my whole HASS, not just per dashboard or view.
The theme YAML file has:
ios-light-mode-blue-red-alternative:
Global
background-image: “center / cover no-repeat fixed url(‘/hacsfiles/themes/ios-themes/homekit-bg-blue-red.jpg’)”
lovelace-background: var(–background-image)
And in the theme folder I can clearly see the JPG files for the wallaper. For example, under themes/ios-theme/ there is homekit-bg-blue-red.jpg file. When downloaded it’s the wallpaper I want.
This seems incredibly complex for something so simple… Why on earth is it so complicated to have the included wallpaper in a theme set across the whole HASS platform?!
Editing the RAW config in each dashboard seems far too difficult unless someone can help me further, but really what I want is for the file stored here: config/themes/ios-theme/homekit-bg-blue-red.jpg to be the default wallpaper for each and very Lovelace screen.
Is this possible? How can I do this? The documentation on this seems really very poor.
Any help greatly appreciated.
