Homekit Infused 5 (HKI) v2023.1.3

[jimz011 (Jim)]

Well actually it is funny, because none of these components are used by HKI. With the exception of the ones in the last line. Are you sure you did a clean install?

Also make sure your config has no errors since HA will stop loading the rest of the code if it is faulty in between.

For best results I always make sure that HA is working as intended (so install HA, add all devices and such). If that continues to work you can install HACS and HKI.

To me your error seems completely unrelated to HKI and therefor I can not really help you fix it. All the archived repositories mentioned are not present in HKI.

That’s normal to get a log entry for repositories that have been archived, even though you don’t use them. You can simply ignore these.

@jimz011 - I’m trying to evaluate 4.0. I followed the checklist and restarted HA. I just can’t figure out how to access HKI (I still see my default Lovelace dashboard and do not see any other dashboards installed). Thanks in advance - this looks pretty cool.

[JesseWebDotCom]

Scratch that - I was on the wrong server. Working good so far! Thanks

Hello
I would like to try making a button like this but I can’t seem to do it.

[JesseWebDotCom]

How did you make the top and bottom menus? Is that a hacs installable add-on?

[JesseWebDotCom]

@ASNNetworks - I saw your snippets above to make a sticker header but I am not able to make it work (page still scrolls up and down, header does not stay on top). Any tips on this simple but broken example:

views:
  - title: Home
    visible: true
    panel: true
    cards:
      - type: vertical-stack
        cards:
          - type: custom:mod-card
            style: |
              ha-card {
                --ha-card-background: var(--ch-background);
                background: var(--ch-background);
                border-radius: 0px !important;
              }            
              .card-content {
                padding: 0
              }
              :host {
                z-index: 999;
                position: sticky;
                position: -webkit-sticky;
                top: 0;
              }
            card:
              type: horizontal-stack
              cards:
                - name: 1
                  type: custom:button-card
                - name: 2
                  type: custom:button-card
                - name: 3
                  type: custom:button-card
          - type: custom:layout-card
            max_columns: 3
            cards:
              - type: custom:button-card
                entity: light.virtual_light1
                name: Garage

          - type: custom:mod-card
            style: |
              ha-card {
                --ha-card-background: var(--ch-background);
                background: var(--ch-background);
                border-radius: 0px !important;
              }            
              .card-content {
                padding: 0
              }
              :host {
                z-index: 999;
                position: sticky;
                position: -webkit-sticky;
                top: 0;
              }
            card:

That code still works. I use that myself (slightly different now due to coloring of background). I even copied that code now and used it, works fine. What browser are you using?

Hi! Can I add enteties to the settings in popup (switch)? HKI 4.0.0

[JesseWebDotCom]

tried Mac safari and iOS safari. ultimately I’m just trying to get it working on my iPhone.

[ASNNetworks]

Sorry, can’t help you then. My header is sticky on my spare iPad and works since the beginning. Also tried that exact code and is also working.

If you use card-mod and it does’t work, you should ask for help in the card-mod thread, or create a Github ticket, so this thread about HomeKit (which I do not use) doesn’t get flooded

If it’s HomeKit specific and you use that framework, then you can try and ask Jimz011 for help (I didn’t @ him so he wouldn’t get unwanted notifications). I don’t use Homekit framework, so I have no idea if you can use his framework to achieve the same thing or not.

[JesseWebDotCom]

thanks, I’ll keep at it.

Hello, I installed the latest hki4.0.0rc, but an error was reported in the configuration check, as follows:

Package hki_configuration setup failed. Component frontend has duplicate key 'background-image'

I handled it according to the method you mentioned earlier, but the result is still the same.

[zxyny1989]

I have found the problem and accidentally copied the files in themes in HKI to themes in homeassistant.

Just delete the same theme file.

[zxyny1989]

I use hki4.0rc. The interface lacelove is square corners. Where can I set it to rounded corners.thanks.

[jimz011 (Jim)]

Make sure your profiles theme is set to “backend selected”. If you never changed your theme via your profile than this is already set for you.

Next, open the menu on your lovelace interface, and then click on HKI Settings. You should find what you need there.

[zxyny1989]

I still can’t set it like this. Let me see it again.

Thank you very much.

[henrikrox]

anyone know why it says unknown here?

[henrikrox]

never mind it was in HKI settings, all greetings were set to unknown

[henrikrox]

one more question, after adding picture to person, I get a big white bar under the picture, both on mobile and on desktop, is there a specific image size it needs to have?
