Templates no longer render after update to 1.4.0

[kaechele]

Somehow templates stopped rendering in my card after updating to 1.4.0 today. Everything works fine after a downgrade to 1.3.2.

• HA version is 2024.2.1
• Installed via HACS

Here's what it should look like:

This is what it looks like with 1.4.0:

I'm having the same issue running version 1.4 with Home Assistant 2024.2.1.

Have uninstalled the add on and reinstalled, multiple restarts and the problem remains.

[Mariusthvdb]

can confirm most templates to no longer work (if the config.entity is called?), all report None or undefined.in the logger

downgrading works 100% perfect, so templates are ok.

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

  File "/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/helpers/template.py", line 698, in async_render_to_info
    render_info._result = self.async_render(

    raise TemplateError(err) from err
homeassistant.exceptions.TemplateError: UndefinedError: 'id' is undefined

and yet this secondary:

      - type: custom:template-entity-row
        entity: binary_sensor.donker_buiten
        name: >
          Donker buiten (< -4°)
        secondary: >
          {% if states[config.entity] is not none %}
            {{relative_time(states[config.entity].last_changed)}} ago, Elevation:
            {{state_attr('sun.sun','elevation')}}
          {% else %} Not yet set, Elevation: {{state_attr('sun.sun','elevation')}}
          {% endif %}

still works fine. so, it is not that straightforward just yet. Need to find out what was changed specifically, and why this breaks templates, but not all

I also can confirm the jinja templates to still work in dev tools template, and dont show any error at all.

I was not able to reproduce this, but I've tried to fix the only related thing that was changed in 1.4.0.

[Mariusthvdb]

can confirm the template to show correctly again, thx

[jasonc-glitch]

Also fixed it for me. Thank you!

[kaechele]

1.4.1 works. Thanks!
