Core 2025.6.1 Supervisor 2025.05.5 Operating System 15.2

Got message :

Because Repository is no longer maintained, custom-cards/bar-card has been removed from HACS. Please visit the HACS Panel to remove it.

Please help me solve the problem. This is a great interface ui card, I don't want to lose it.

[dengi76]

Hello. I have the same thing!?!

[obhatti87]

Got the same message this morning

[chrisgilldc]

Same. I don't have the knowledge to get this back into shape but find it very useful.

[nilsreiter]

Well, unless someone takes over the maintenance of the bar-card, this issue will not go away. Depending on your use case, https://github.com/francois-le-ko4la/lovelace-entity-progress-card might be an alternative.

[CrallH]

Add a forked as custom that is updated, this one for example: https://github.com/spacerokk/bar-card

[liuk4friends]

Add a forked as custom that is updated, this one for example: https://github.com/spacerokk/bar-card

What is the procedure to replace the no longer updated version with the forked one that is still maintained?

[tomlut]

What is the procedure

Uninstall original bar card from HACS. Add custom repository to HACS (https://github.com/spacerokk/bar-card) Install forked bar card in HACS.

Or just ignore the warning because the original card still works where as the fork does not.

[xbmcnut]

Switched to https://github.com/spacerokk/bar-card just now after uninstalling original and it seems to work just fine.

[tomlut]

Two out of every three of my cards failed to display correctly. Probably because of a config options change but I have yet to work out what it is. Or bother working out what it is as the bar card still works.

[xbmcnut]

@tomlut Oooh, any chance you could share your card code for the Energy and Power? Looks very nice 🤗

I'm also a heavy user of that repository, I'm jumping in to show my interest to see that repository maintained if anyone has the skills to do so:

[0000Max0000]

Add a forked as custom that is updated, this one for example: https://github.com/spacerokk/bar-card

I receive the following error :

[Mosher23]

I receive the following error :

It should be spacerokk/bar-card without https://Github.com

[danVnest]

I just migrated to https://github.com/spacerokk/bar-card (@0000Max0000 use the type Dashboard instead of Integration)

All seems to be working (card code here):

[WhimsySpoon]

I've just migrated to spacerokk/bar-card.

The only issues I had involved integers being written as strings in the config ("100" instead of 100). The previous version seemed to tolerate this, but the new one does not - and rightly so!

Once I looked through the yaml and found all instances and corrected them by removing the quotes, everything worked perfectly.

[xbmcnut]

Add a forked as custom that is updated, this one for example: https://github.com/spacerokk/bar-card

It's a 'Dashboard' not an 'Integration'

[donparlor]

@xbmcnut Will this repo be kept up-to-date by spacerokk ?? https://github.com/spacerokk/bar-card

For now I simply clicked on ignore in my system but I would like to have a stable card for the future.

Not a single update for 5 year's 😄 don't think it will....

[donparlor]

@CrallH, ok, I thought the spacerokk version was maintained. If anyone can lead with the required changes, that would be great

[tomlut]

I thought the spacerokk version was maintained.

It is. The last update was three weeks ago. CrallH is incorrect.

[dan-s-github]

I also migrated to the spacerokk fork but have an issue with the entity name on the card

before the 'name_attr' was actually evaluated

    entities:
      - entity: sensor.weatherflow_forecast_0
        name_attr: time
      - entity: sensor.weatherflow_forecast_1
        name_attr: time
      - entity: sensor.weatherflow_forecast_2
        name_attr: time
      - entity: sensor.weatherflow_forecast_3
        name_attr: time
      - entity: sensor.weatherflow_forecast_4
        name_attr: time
      - entity: sensor.weatherflow_forecast_5
        name_attr: time
      - entity: sensor.weatherflow_forecast_6
        name_attr: time
      - entity: sensor.weatherflow_forecast_7
        name_attr: time

anyone know how to fix this?

[tomlut]

Report it as an issue in the other repository. The dev isn't going to look here.

[dan-s-github]

Unfortunately the way the repo was forked does not allow to create issues there. At least I couldn't find where to create issues on the forked repo

[CrallH]

Yes, a misunderstanding from my part, I thought he ment this repo 👍

+1 to this. Couple of bugs that I'm sure they'll sort in due time, but otherwise it's great to see the code being maintained!

Fixed my issue by using the custom:config-template-card

You need to choose Dashboard instead of Integration in the Type field :)

Thanks @craigmcfly! 😁
