Hi there,
I am trying to get wifi location working. I’ve had some success, but things seem to have stopped working.
Could any of you code ninja’s take a look at the below code to see if there is something wrong (or indeed something that I could be doing better).
One thing that I am not certain on is whether there should be quote marks around the ‘home’ and ‘not_home’ bits.
- action:
- data:
event: wifi_away
service: ifttt.trigger
- data:
entity_id: light.all_lights
service: light.turn_off
alias: Wifi Away Mart
condition:
- after: sunrise
before: sunset
before_offset: 00:40:00
condition: sun
- condition: state
entity_id: device_tracker.claregrsiphone6
state: 'not_home'
- after: 08:30
before: '10:30'
condition: time
weekday:
- mon
- tue
- wed
- fri
- sat
- sun
id: '1515596681496'
trigger:
- entity_id: device_tracker.pixel2
from: 'home'
platform: state
to: 'not_home'
Cheers people!
Man, this is precisely why I hate the automation editor - it formats everything all over the place, and then when it breaks and someone comesand asks for help it’s a royal PITA to scrub through it and find the problem.

Anywho, assuming I’ve understood your problem correctly, try this…
- id: '1515596681496'
alias: Wifi Away Mart
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: device_tracker.pixel2
to: 'not_home'
condition:
- condition: sun
after: sunrise
- condition: sun
before: sunset
before_offset: 00:40:00
- condition: state
entity_id: device_tracker.claregrsiphone6
state: 'not_home'
- condition: time
after: 08:30
before: '10:30'
- condition: time
weekday:
- mon
- tue
- wed
- fri
- sat
- sun
action:
- service: ifttt.trigger
data:
event: wifi_away
- service: light.turn_off
entity_id: light.all_lights
…that’s respecting all the conditions you already had, although I suspect they’re overkill and duplicating. I didn’t bother trying to work out the logic, just added a couple of lines here and there to prevent the sun conditions overlapping and cleaned it up a bit.

Thanks for taking the time / effort to reformat this!
I’ll give it a go asap.
I’m just getting into Hassio, so I’m now converting my automations (built with the editor) into proper ones. The YAML formatting is giving me a few headaches though!
Thanks again ![:slight_smile: :slight_smile:](https://community.home-assistant.io/images/emoji/twitter/slight_smile.png?v=9)

Just a quick thing I don’t get -
- condition: time
after: 08:30
before: '10:30'
Why is 08:30 without quotes and 10:30 with? (or is this a typo)?
Yeah, they should all be in quotes, that was a typo from your OP that I accidentally carried over.
Should probably have the seconds on the end too.
