Blueprint : Problem with the entity picker.

[MichelJourdain]

There is a problem with the entity picker. The field is no longer available to select an entity.

I was able to work around this issue by changing the blueprint yaml and replacing the lines containing: type: entity-picker with selector: entity:

See example:

As you can see in the screenshot the "Entity of the card one" was changed in the blueprint and the "Entity of the card two" was left "as-is".

Restarting fixed it but if you try to add it comes back.

I was able to work around by replacing entity-picker to entity_picker and manually entering the entity values (no list available)

So, I accidentally discovered a workaround (and a potential clue to the issue here). If you navigate to a page where an entity picker is used elsewhere (I went to Dev tools->States - there's an entity picker under set state), and then navigate back to this page, the entity pickers get filled in correctly. If you refresh, they go away again. I'm guessing the object isn't loaded by this config page, so you need another page to load it.

any update on this? none of the above solutions work for me...

You can add the Blueprint even if you cannot complete the fields. Then you go to the /config/dwains-dashboard/configs/more_pages/your-file-name.yaml/ directory and complete the Data section manually in the page.yaml file.

Cool, but isn't this more of a bandaid? It would be awesome to have this bug fixed as this makes the set-up very long...

same issue is effecting multiple pages.
