Simple (noob) dashbord not working right

Hello all,

I’m a noob and I just started using appdaemon/HADashboard and I must be doing something wrong. My simple dashboard loads fine but with a caveats. The light switch’s do not actually control the light.
And I have a question about temperature sensors. Are they suppose to auto refresh on the page? mine do not seem to.

Some info:
appdaemon.yaml:

HASS:
  ha_url: http://192.168.0.89:8123
  #ha_key: PASSWORD
AppDaemon:
  logfile: /var/log/appdaemon/appd.log
  errorfile: /var/log/appdaemon/err.log
  threads: 10
HADashboard:
  dash_url: http://192.168.0.89:5050

main.dash: Yes those are actual entity names of the lights being tested.

title: Main
widget_dimensions: [120, 120]
widget_size: [1, 1]
widget_margins: [5, 5]
columns: 8
global_parameters:
    use_comma: 0
    precision: 1
    use_hass_icon: 1
clock:
 widget_type: clock
reload:
 widget_type: reload
 
layout:
 - clock(4x2) 
 -
 -
 - light.side_light_wink_sucks, light.bed_head_light, switch.switch_3
 - sensor.wetest_temperature1, sensor.wetest_temperature2, sensor.wetest_temperature3
 -
 - reload(1x1)

Many thanks.

What version of python are you using?

house@Hassbot:~$ python -V
Python 2.7.13
house@Hassbot:~$ python3 -V
Python 3.5.3

I’ve updated to appdaemon 3.0.0b3 that brought needed changes that I have not read threw yet.

What would be the correct python command to revert back? I should have read a bit before doing that update. /sigh

Ok I guess i’m a faster reader then i realize. I seem to have light working after updating to appdaemon 3.0.0b3.

I think I’ll hold on this version till I get I better grasp on what to do.

Many Many Thanks for feeding my hobby =)
