Friendly name #34

Open gitrichhub opened 4 years ago

gitrichhub commented 4 years ago

Redefining a friendly name to an existing variable does not change within HA. 'States' still shows the old name. Tried server restart, and reboot. Original Friendly_Name sticks.

Thanks.

What happens if you try to change the friendly name from the debugging tools page using the var.set service?

Yes, that works. Thanks.

Thanks for reporting the issue.

It seems that the correct fix for this will be to update all config values besides initial_value on restart.

Thank you for creating a great integration. It’s very helpful and is really something that was missing in the HA system.
