Entity category not working

[alnavasa]

The problem

I have modified (not newly created) a code from an existing device, a ESP device to have the human readable uptime sensor show where it should under diagnostic tab. but it shows between all other sensors:

code used:

    entity_category: diagnostic

how it looks :

this part is the one not working as specked

  - platform: uptime
    name: Uptime Sensor
    id: uptime_sensor
    update_interval: 60s
    entity_category: diagnostic
    on_raw_value:
      then:
        - text_sensor.template.publish:
            id: uptime_human
            state: !lambda |-
              int seconds = round(id(uptime_sensor).raw_state);
              int days = seconds / (24 * 3600);
              seconds = seconds % (24 * 3600);
              int hours = seconds / 3600;
              seconds = seconds % 3600;
              int minutes = seconds /  60;
              seconds = seconds % 60;
              return (
                (days ? to_string(days) + "d " : "") +
                (hours ? to_string(hours) + "h " : "") +
                (minutes ? to_string(minutes) + "m " : "") +
                (to_string(seconds) + "s")
              ).c_str();

### Anything in the logs that might be useful for us?

_No response_

### Additional information

As mentioned, I had this device running for some time and today decided to implement this category, edited the code and uploaded the code OTA to the device.

Solved: entity_category: diagnostic needs to be added to the template sensor not the uptime sensor.

text_sensor:
  - platform: template
    name: Uptime Human Readable
    id: uptime_human
    entity_category: diagnostic
    icon: mdi:clock-start
