the entities, even though are the same, have the full long name sometimes.
this total is showing the date.
this card is in the same order as the others but not even close to displaying the correct entity. can see it better here:
another issue, its really hard to see the entities name in the edit cards view:
Names only get truncated when the title is in the entity name. And if I recall correctly, this only happens on the auto generated UI. As soon as you take control, you have to name everything by hand.
ok ive manually created an entity card and i didnt get the truncated entities this time in the ui. i also individually named them and they are adhering to that name correctly. also the entity values are correct. that solves all of the issues i had with the other cards i believe.
is it possible to create a template of this manually created card so that i can easily replicate it for other plugs and their entities?
You can with custom cards. Theres one called ‘decluttering card’ that will do that.
thanks! i will check that out. for the moment i might just stick with duplicating cards and manually editing them.
one thing i noticed when duplicating a card(manually created), the entities are truncated again, so it looks like its not just related the auto generated ones 
looks like its not just on duplication of a manually created card. here they are truncated when manually creating a horizontal card:
should i report this on github
