Any ideas why I cant get the active menu item background to go fully transparent? Setting colours works, setting alpha levels work, but fully transparent still has a layer of “alpha” to it. Have tried different ways of setting transparent such as “transparent” “#00000000” etc.
Code snippet:
style: |
:host {
--sidebar-text-color: #000;
}
.sidebarMenu li.active {
background-color: transparent!important;
font-weight: bold!important;
}
.digitalClock {
text-align: center;
}
.date {
text-align: center;
}
.sidebarMenu li {
line-height: 80px !important;
text-align: center;
}

BTW, if you want to get a LEFT sidebar w/o using a custom sidebar - you may use a conventional sidebar + card-mod-theme:
Hi all, hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction. I’ve added the sidebar to my config, and it seems to be working ok apart from the bottom bar.
I have added the below config, and the 3 buttons sometimes display, and sometimes don’t.
After some investigation, it appears like the following is happening:
- If the three buttons are also included in the ‘view/page’ that is opened, then the buttons appear in the side bar
- If the three buttons are not included in the view config, then the buttons don’t appear in the side bar
- If the three buttons are included in the view config, but in a different ‘view/page’ to that which was initially opened, the buttons don’t appear.
Have played around, cleared caches etc, also looked at this link which @markus78 had previously posted, but nothing seems to make a difference to the above behaviour
Any thoughts much appreciated!

Has anyone ever tried to put a top card in which replicates the function of the bottom card, just about the clock? I have a menu bar which shows the status of doors etc which I would love to have at the very top above the clock
I am trying to edit the JS file to remove the name element and change the size of the icons, but I have edited the file and it doesn’t seem to change anything. I am pretty sure I am editing the right elements, does HACS or HA cache the source file somewhere else so it can’t be edited?!?!?
Ok have worked out how to edit the margins to give the “effect” of having no names, so that will do for now on that! But hoping anyone can help with a few other questions I have, referring to the screenshot below (work in progress!):
- How do I make the icons bigger? Have tried editing the ha-icon element but doesn’t to change the size.
- What is the red oval and how do I remove it? Seems to be a background but can’t for the life of me work out what it is the background of?!?!
- Any font suggestions?
Not happy with the current font

Thanks a bunch for this, will give it a try! Also, any idea how to remove the background behind the active menu item? Mine seems to come up as a red oval which I am trying to get rid of
Earlier I was using the custom sidebar on my desktop and my phone which has been working flawlessly. Today I bought my first Nest hub but when I try to cast my dashboard through the Google Cast-integration (since CATT doesn’t seem to work anymore) the sidebar doesn’t show up at all.
Any ideas? Anyone had the same issues?

Hey, no idea sorry, the only thing I can suggest is remove the lot and slowly add stuff in line by line, tats how I fixed my stuff LOL
It doesn’t work for me at all on the Nest Hub, despite working on every other device.
Can someone give me a tipp, how i can change the border color and the mouseover color of the menu? It went to light blue but i don´t know why.
As an option under sidebar place this → Style:
It will change background.
The .sidebarMenu li.active gives the color when the link is active.

--sidebar-background: #000D29;

Hey, this looks awesome, how did you manage to do the top part? thanks
Any possible way how to add also topcard? I would like to have a greeting on the top (I use mushroom title card for this.
