No time and date info on home screen

Configuration
1

I’m new to Home Assistant and are trying to make a nice home screen. But I cant get any date or time info on my home screen. I made some changes to the configuration file but no info seen.

My config looks like this:

sensor:
  - platform: time_date
    display_options:
      - 'time'
      - 'date'
      - 'date_time'
      - 'time_date'

group:
  date_and_time:
    view: yes
    icon: mdi:home
    entities:
      - group.date_time
  date_time:
    name: Date and Time
    entities:
      - sensor.time
      - sensor.date
      - sensor.date_time
      - sensor.time_date

I hope someone can help me with this.

there are a couple of things…

the way you wrote your group: section you should have ended up with another tab at the top of the screen with another icon. it won’t be on your main “Home” screen.

second, the 'date_time" & “time_date” in your groups section are written wrong. they should be “time__date” & “date__time”. I’m not sure why it was done that way. It seems confusing and inconsistent with the naming of other entities.

Fix the second issue and see if that fixes it. And look for that second tab.
