DD - Automatic area-based dashboard for desktop, tablet and mobile - V3.7.0

Hey another question if you don’t mind…is it possible to have the dynamic page replace the scene page rather than replacing the cameras? I have quite a few cameras but rarely use scenes…thank you

Not yet but in a future update it will.

Oh, I’m such an idiot. I somehow didn’t copy the file ‘dwains-theme-lovelace.yaml’ into the config folder.

Love this so far, just getting started! I have one slight niggle though and just wondering if anyone can help.

Regarding this:

" If you edit something inside a file of the dwains-theme/configs/ folder, you always need to reload the theme configuration for any changes to be visible. Go to the more page and click on theme settings, there you can click Reload theme configuration. Or do a service call in the developer tools dwains_theme.reload"

Reloading the sources or even calling the service doesn’t show the changes I’ve made. Instead I need to restart HA which is getting rather annoying.

Am I missing something obvious here?

Cheers

Ignore me. I wasn’t performing the reload theme config from the settings.

I read more documentation and can consolidate feedback and things I noticed, what is the best method, I see mention in the thread about slack and discord and opening issues in git, do you have a preference on where you would want me to start? I assume forum posts are not the best for you

Please join our Home Asssistant Addicts Discord server, it is a server with a channel for my theme but also general things about HA its fun :smiley: There we can discuss the need of a Github FR or not.

Hi Dwain, Hi folks,

I waited till 1.3 because I need the Tabletview. Thank @dwains for implement it.

Ah the moment I prepare everything. I’ve put my lights, covers and thermostats in groups. Do I need to do the same with everything? Means sensors (window, humidity, movement) and Mediaplayer too?

Yes for each room. So if you have 3 window sensors for 1 room make a group for them and put that group inside my room config.

That was fast :slight_smile:

I admit I didn’t dug through the whole process yet. Do I need to name the groups the same? So

Light Bedroom
Cover Bedroom
Sensor Bedroom

Or just bedroom?

Joining my Discord server will give you even faster replies :stuck_out_tongue:

You need to make a group for each ‘domain’ so group.light_bedroom, group.doors_bedroom

Not sure if you want this as I’m well know for stupid questions.
What’s the name of the server? :wink:

Hi… is it possible to show devices and lights in ON state in ‘house information’ -> Activity?

1 Like

No need for that, you can see it in the header, how many lights and devices are on…

Thank you for feedback…

However, please think about this a little bit out of the box, and forget about how theme works now.
House information - what is expected to see there? I would like to see current status of the house.
Would be great if single touch can provide me all important information that matters (before you leave the house) like all devices that are ON (lights, media centre, oven, washing machine etc… and other custom unclassified devices), windows (if open), covers etc…

The header is great no doubts about it, but this require walk threw multiple places to get full house status and even then not all informations will be collected.

Thanks

Or maybe we can have an option to use custom page after “house information” is pressed.

That’s similar to how I use the House Information. I’ve added other important info at a glance.
