Well I think you can just overwrite the name of it in the customize tab: Settings > Customization. (At the bottom of the Settings Page)
There you pick your sensor or group or whatever and overwrite the Name
I know I can change the name of the entity itself, but then I have a problem in another dashboard where I display all the groups with the current power consumption.
Then i get
Gr.1 95w
Gr. 2 14w
Gr. 3 234w
Vaatwasser 0w
Gr. 5 785w
Oven 0w
I am also using aarlo. As I understand, it uses a custom card and that’s not what is used in this dashboard. As such I just made a custom page to display my cameras. I copied over the yaml from a previous Lovelace page into my custom page.

Well the only other option I see is to create a duplicate of the group or the entity.
You can use the duplicate in Dwains Dashboard instead.
Maybe there is a feature to change the name of an entity in Dwains Dashboard itself, if so I don’t know it sorry.
The only way I can think to accomplish that is by duplicating the entity with a custom sensor of a different name. Add something like this to your sensor.yaml file:
- platform: template
sensors:
vaatwasser:
friendly_name: "Vaatwasser"
icon_template: hass:flash
value_template: >-
{{ states('switch.keyken_koelkast_58') }} W
May not be exactly what you need, I made some assumptions based on what I saw from your screenshots. But could be used as a baseline.
Exactly what I ended up doing, had issues getting it to work, but after an uninstall and reinstall it appears to be working fine.
Thanks, hadn’t thought about that I can solve it with a template or a group.
Sometimes the solution is so simple but you look over it

does anyone know where to add
require_admin: true
to limit access to the dashboard for non-admin users? Prior to 2.0 version and for all other dashboards in yaml, this is done in the configuration.yaml file (see old example below for reference). Struggling to find the equivalent file in the custom_component folder. Thanks in advance
dwains-theme:
mode: yaml
title: Dwains Theme
icon: mdi:alpha-d-box
show_in_sidebar: true
filename: dwains-theme-lovelace.yaml
require_admin: true
Do you mean the entire lovelace or a particular section
if you mean the former then this
thats set under lovelace dashboards
You can’t set a dashboard that is in yaml mode to admin only under Configuration/Lovelace Dashboards.
oopss… sorry
Hey
Just a small question.
Am I able to change a color in the Dark Theme? (Btw. Im using the Auto Theme Mode and want to change there something in the Dark Theme)
Cause the buttons are quite hard to see:
Edit (Solution): You can change every theme in this folder: “\config\custom_components\dwains_dashboard\lovelace\themefiles”
Now I just have to find the correct var ^^ Maybe someone knows the correct one?
Ok im actually not able to just change the buttons…
I found one var that changes the buttons but also changes the background of the card…
Can anyone help me?
@dwains is er ook een pre-install versie? Ik bedoel dat je hem installeert en de basis al staat. Dan dien je enkel namen ruimtes en al je devices aan te passen.
Als je het dashboard installeert, worden alle config files toegevoegd vol met gecommenteerde voorbeelden.
@dwains can you pls help me with the var to change just the color of the buttons (The buttons down in the bar of the vacuum card, pretty hard to see in dark theme). (My thread 2 posts earlier with the vacuum.)
Thanks for making this awesome piece of software I have one question, on the rooms overview you can easily see if lights in that room are on or off. Would it be possible to make it toggle the lights with a long-click for instance?
Hello happ people I was wondering someone uses climate in this setup and if the widget shows when it’s turned on.never hit this workinft
Double click on the room button or double click on the light button when you are in a room.
