After last update of ESP Addon to the version 1.19.4, I stop being able to use LOG command in order to know in real time what is happening with the devices connected to the node.
With EDIT feature I can confirm into YAML file that LOG is active, but when I click on it, nothing has happening.
Does anyone know what was different from last version?
The log still functions correctly here.
Editing the device configuration is only operating on a local flie. Logging has to connect remotely to your device. Can ESPHome connect to your device?
Is the top border of the device card in the ESPHome addon web interface green or red?
It is yet another caching issue. Seems to require more than just a ctrl-F5.

Had the same problem here. Ctrl-F5 not enough.
After manually clearing the browser cache the LOGS worked again.
I just found that on my mobile this issue is so resilient that even purging the cache does not seem to solve it. This effects both Chrome on Android and the HA Companion App on Android.
Could this be the result of some proxy caching on HA side that is not purged after a change to the ESPHome frontend?
On my Iphone I am able to see the logs again when I use Safari. After clicking the log button, a popup appeared. I could choose between serial, or WiFi log. It seems like this pop-up is blocked in the companion app.
Make sure you clean your cache thoroughly.
Didn’t know there was a clear cache option in the companion app! Just used it and popup worked! Thanks.
