Hi,
I am trying to hide some cards from users, enable it only on admin user. Seems that the user type isnāt working as expected. Just to be sure, is the user name is the āusernameā or any other id generated?
Thx
entity: user goes by the username, yes.
entity: group selects by admin and not admin, i.e. user.

I am confused 
what is the right one, user (Eyal) or username (eyal)?. I can work with user, no problem, the only thing is that the use can have spaces e.g., āJohn Johnā

Use the one that works.
yaml keys can have spaces too, and if that wouldnāt work, quote it
states:
"Thomas LovƩn":
...
"John John":
...
@thomasloven - Is there a way of not showing a card based on the state/user/etc? I can see there is the type markdown, but is there a way of it just being blank?

No card type found
Here input_select:
system_state_switch:
name: "Select Technical overview:"
options:
- External IP

Here code in Lovelace:
- type: module
url: /community_plugin/lovelace-state-switch/state-switch.js
cards:
- type: entities
entities:

In the log file I see this line:
2020-01-30 09:56:56 ERROR (MainThread) [frontend.js.latest.202001082] https://192.168.100.24:8123/community_plugin/custom-header/custom-header.js:145:62852 TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 't.tabs[F().current_view].dispatchEvent')
Can someone help me with this
At the and of the cards added this:
type: vertical-stack
problems solved
Feature Request or is it possible to show some cards and not others on the template.
"{% for state in states.sensor if state.state|int < 8 %} {{ state.entity_id.split('.')[1]}}, {% endfor %}"
I got this string to work ,but only if it returns only one name. If it returns two names it displays no cards.
Iām having a strange problem with this card Iāve never had before. It says itās not installed:
However, I installed it the same way I did all my other working cards, by using HACS, verified HACS had installed it in my www folder, and then putting it in my lovelace.yaml in the same way as all my working cards, see below:

I canāt for the life of me figure out why this card doesnāt work when all my others doā¦ Is it possibly just not compatible with .105.5?
Oh duh, itās just the folder is wrong for HACS. The right one seems to be
- url: /community_plugin/lovelace-state-switch/state-switch.js
type: module
Card still isnāt working but I think I have some other syntax errors in there.

Thereās a troubleshooting guide in the install instructions linked from the readme.
Working now, thanks!
found anything on this? Thanks
hi, thanks for great card.
I am trying to use this in long vertical stack. by using three buttons would like to scroll down the page at a specific place! at the same time in the default would like to leave all cards visible. short of like anchors.
is this possible to achieve?
hi,
question, i am reverting my conditional cards to state-switch cardsā¦
but the variables doesnt work anymore like i wanted 
this worked before:
- name: "Calendar: [[[return ${states[āsensor.calendar_fabio_vanessaā].state}]]]"
now i need to remove the āCalendar:ā word,
so its like
- name: "[[[return ${states[āsensor.calendar_fabio_vanessaā].state}]]]"
how can i define a fixed word before that state
it worked before on conditional card
thxn a lot
- type: custom:state-switch
entity: template
template: "{% if not is_state('sensor.calendar_fabio_vanessa', 'off') %} on {% endif %}"
states:
"on":
type: horizontal-stack
cards:
- !include ../includes/blank-card.yaml
- type: custom:decluttering-card
template: notification
variables:
- card_color: rgba(0, 221, 255, 0.5)
- icon: calendar
- name: "[[[return `${states['sensor.calendar_fabio_vanessa'].state}`]]]"
- !include ../includes/blank-card.yaml
Also another question:
I have some buttons I want to displayā¦
Before with conditional cards, when I didnāt want to show (hide a button) the next button would be on the exact same spaceā¦
With this card, if I have for example 10 state switches, and 2 of them are true, letās say the first and the last, I have like 8 extra spaces/rowsā¦
Normally the second buttons should be right under the first buttonā¦ But now every card that is hidden ( no state) seems.its creating somekind of whitespacesā¦
Hard to explain what I mean
example screenshot:
Iāve got the exact same issue with conditionally non-displayed cards, albeit horizontally (stacked):
are you sure your cards were there correctly before? I feared it to be related to the horizontal-stack card.
Eg entities cards with conditional cards as entities donāt suffer this behavior.
yeah, with condinional cards, there was no space/gap between cards ā¦ now its filling up with spaces, they all shift some pixels to below
the more cards are invisible between 2 visible cards, the more the second one shift to beow
i see this PR, allthought it didnt fix my issue
