That would be a nice feature indeed, to enable/disable rules. I think the enabled/disabled mode of rules can also be used to dynamically switch them. For example enable/disabling them from other rules (time/date based) or based on communication from message brokers (e.g. MQTT) Then you can enable a chain of rules by a single event, like "no-one at home, start ventilating house" or something like that.
It's a great idea. More info on the forum: https://www.letscontrolit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3911
sounds good indeed :)
People watching this: Vote up the features or bugfixes you want like to see fixed first. use the thumbs UP arrow for that on the first comment. This way we can determine where to start, because we have LOTS of requests. :)
The ability to select a different set of rules would be a nice feature. My example is an irrigation controller that uses different rules for a summer vs winter schedule. I'm sure there are other valid examples. In other words a simple way to turn on or off each rules page much like devices have an "enable" tick box. This seems to be a popular idea on the forum.
Obviously one can change the rules by cut and paste but a simple way to "throw a switch" would be a nice addition. There are 4 "pages" of rules so I envision a tick box on each page that enables or disables them.
