How to Keep User Profiles Consistent Cross device and after ne wLogins

Configuration
1

Hi all,

Is there a way to save user settings so they stick after logging off and into another User and cross devices?
I’ve set a user with a specific theme, Dashboard and a reduced set of items in the sidebar.
I log off then back in and all the settings have been reset.
I’m sure this wasn’t the case previously but not sure when this started happening.
I’m running core-2021.3.1

Basically im too lazy to set each profile up as I go.

I have found this automation for startups
automation:

  - alias: 'System - Set Custom Theme at Startup'
    initial_state: 'true'
    trigger:
      platform: homeassistant
      event: start
    action:
      service: frontend.set_theme
      data:
        name: MYTHEME

Cheers

Brent

Hey Brent, did you find a solution? I have a similar issue. I am trying to set dark theme and a default Lovelace view (other than overview) for myself (admin) and another user (non admin). When either user logs out then back in, the profile settings are lost and the user sees overview page on light theme. I cannot see any way to save/ commit settings in profile settings. Any ideas?

Cheers. Might be worth starting a new topic. I’m surprised there were no answers here.
