Thanks for the help. I was able to do that, but where I am confused is how to replace the N/A value after Currently with this value from the Smoke Detector.
See my updated above answer.
Also, maybe there still needs to be a template-line. Just try out some stuff.
Hmmmm…I just cannot get it to budge. At all. Nothing about that field.
Here is my code. Even when I change the label, it does not reflect a change at all. What am I missing in the process?
type: custom:simple-thermostat
entity: climate.ac_in_top_floor_living_room
sensors:
- id: temperature
label: '{{ui.currently}}'
template: '{{states.sensor.smoke_detector_air_temperature|formatNumber}}'
control:
hvac:
heat: true
'off': true
cool: true
heat_cool: false
dry: false
fan_only: false
preset:
boost: false
eco: false
none: false
fan:
Auto:
name: Auto
icon: hass:fan
Low:
name: Low
icon: hass:fan
LowMid: false
Mid:
name: Mid
icon: hass:fan
HighMid: false
High:
name: High
icon: hass:fan
layout:
mode:
headings: false
names: true
icons: true
step: column
step_size: '1'
decimals: '0'
Looks like this is working for me
- type: custom:simple-thermostat
entity: climate.xyz
version: 3
... some text in-between...
sensors:
- entity: sensor.smoke_detector_air_temperature
id: temperature
label: "{{ui.currently}}"
template: "{{state.text}} {{unit_of_measurement}}"
- id: state
label: State
template: "{{hvac_action}}"
This replaces the Currently and the State parts on the screen. The State part is needed otherwise the name changes to Operation.
That did it. I needed to put the state back in there and definitely needed the version line. It caused my dashboard to break, but then I switched back to visual editor and then back to code editor and it fixed it…no idea.
But, thank you!
You’re welcome!
This version 3 functionality is actually great stuff once you get the hang of it.
For instance, this works too: label: "{{'mdi:valve'|icon}}", it allows you to replace text by an icon.

When I add

I get N/A for the settings. I can’t lower my set points and I don’t know why this is? Any ideas? Thanks!
I tried making it clean and simple, but removing all the mode variables left me with this green rectangle at the bottom? Any idea how I can get rid of it?

Just updated to HA Core from 10.6 to 11.0 and lost my +/- buttons on my Simple Thermostat card. Reverted back to 10.3 and the buttons are back. Anyone else experience this?
They are not gone, just invisible so I assume some style changed. But you still can click them
And it’s not isolated to Simple Thermostat, MediaPlayer looks the same for me.
Hello,
I try to remove this state but isn’t work 
- type: 'custom:simple-thermostat'

Any idea ?
Thx
Yes, use the version 3 features: simple-thermostat/sensors.md at 9c274465b5c513e9e6a82d9670f52807ba173233 · nervetattoo/simple-thermostat · GitHub
See my examples in earlier posts.

Hi guys,
I beg your pardon but I’m unable to find how, so here to ask you support.
I have a Tuya thermostat (entity climate.) with the following “functions”:
- Program
- Temporary Program
- Manual
and they are mapped to ha by the integration respectively as:
- heat
- fan_only
- cool
I would love to rename the climate entity states to correct function/icon/color, as well to have the history/logbook reporting correctly the changes, but I’m unable to find any template example or documentation for the climate entity, Anyone that can help me?
I have placed the following code on configuration.yaml
- platform: template
sensors:
termostato:
value_template: "{% if is_state('climate.termostato', 'cool') %}On{% endif %}"
Under Developer tools Template it appears to work correctly, but looking on the logbook is still reporting “turned to Cool”, and on the Thermostat Card as well still “Cool” state:
Am I missing something?
Nevermind, I’ve managed it in a different way.
Created a Sensor with correct names/values, excluded then climate hvac states from logbook
My thermostat ‘step’ buttons are blending with my background. Any idea how to change their colours?
I searched the thread and didn’t see anything. Thanks.
Same with me. It’s been working fine forever, and the other day after an update, I can’t see my step buttons.
