Status of Switch Manager

Configuration
1

I’m new here, so please forgive any faux pas.

I have been using a plug in named “Switch Manager” to manage buttons and switches. I find it really helpful.

Currently it’s quit working (it says all actions are “Unknown”. I figured I needed to update it and went to Github for it where i found the following:

“The device sequence action is currently unsupported, use service/action calls instead as this should be used thoughout Home Assistant anyway. You can literally do everything device actions can do and more just by using the standard actions. You can read more on why you shoudn’t use it [here]”

Yet the project seems to be under active maintenance (last commit 2 weeks ago).

Should I stop using Switch Manager, or do I misunderstand the comment? I am not familiar with “the device sequence actions”.

The solution is literally linked in the github page and points to an excellent thread here.

If any of your automations for Switch Manager are using devices, then follow the thread and change them over to action calls and entities. Everything’s explained clearly in the linked thread.
