Plugwise Schedule selector is missing from Overview dashboard

Open whyscream opened this issue 2 months ago • 5 comments

The problem

Since the upgrade of HA core from 2025.11.something to 2025.12.1, the select box that allows me to switch the Schedule that Plugwise uses, is missing from the Overview dashboard.

What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?

core-2025.12.2

What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?

core-2025.11.?

What type of installation are you running?

Home Assistant OS

Integration causing the issue

Plugwise

Link to integration documentation on our website

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/plugwise

Diagnostics information

config_entry-plugwise-01JEDSYXWYC757Z8EDNZZ9ZBD7.json

Example YAML snippet


Anything in the logs that might be useful for us?


Additional information

My setup is an Anna device combined with a Smile and an Opentherm-capable central heating unit. I don't have Adam or Tom devices. When I access the Anna device in HA, I can see the Schedule select under Configuration.

Could it be that it was previously listed under sensors, which also made it show up in the Overview dashboard in my living room (area of the Anna)?

NB: Since I'm lazy, I don't make my own custom dashboards. I just use the stock ones, and they're quite good :)

Could this be related to the recent changes in https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/156262 ?

Hi @whyscream - if you are referring to the /home/overview (and from there /climate) dashboards missing the selector, that would not be something for the integration. I.e if I go to the new overview dashboard and go to climate both my temperature and the climate entity are there (amongst other climate related entities). Opening the Plugwise device (Anna in my case) shows the regular interface including the selector.

I.e. from home Image to climate Image and using that one just shows me the big climate card with the selector (i.e. like the below 2025.11 screenshot but all-in-one).

If you are referring to the older one (benefit of multiple HA's) showing two cards like 2025.11 did: Image Then I think it should be a feature request (https://github.com/orgs/home-assistant/discussions) to frontend/climate in general and not something Plugwise related.

And just to be clear, nothing wrong with laziness, you are not, you stepped up and raised an issue as well as looking into recent PRs :)

@whyscream In HA 2025.12 the thermostat schedule selector was moved from the Controls-block to the Configuration-block of the Anna device. That made more sense to us code-owners. Have a look in Settings --> Devices & services --> Plugwise --> Anna.

bouwew avatar Dec 09 '25 12:12 bouwew

@bouwew Yes I found the controls on the device page, but that is not a dashboard :)

@CoMPaTech I'm normally using either the Overview dashboard at /lovelace/0, or the Areas dashboard at /dashboard-areas/home. I guess I disabled the Home dashboard (at /home/overview) at some time in the past.

Now, when looking at the Home dashboard in 2025.12.2, I'm seeing the same widgets as you're showing:

Home (/home/overview): Image

Climate (/climate): Image

When I click on the widget I get the climate control widget, but without the schedule selector: Image

In the Overview dashboard in 2025.11, the widget was the top widget in the list of controls for the area where the Anna is located (living room). I'm not sure whether I had 2 separate cards in 2025.11 for the large climate control widget, but I'm seeing 1 card now, and no schedule switcher.

Image

[Overview dashboard, widget was right between 'Living room' and 'Bulb couch']

This has changed between 2025.11 and 2025.12, and as said, my first guess would be the move of the widget from Controls to Configuration in the device page, as @bouwew mentions.

My HA usage implies that most devices should also be capable and manageable when HA is down. Thus I'm using 2 schedules in Plugwise itself ('At home' and 'Not at home'),where the 'At home' schedule contains various temperature changes during the day. I only use HA to (automatically or manually) switch to a different schedule depending on someone actually being home. Concluding: in my opinion, the schedule is a daily use control (and sensor, displaying the active schedule) and not some 'change once in a blue moon' Configuration parameter like the temperature offset.

@whyscream I don't mind reverting the change, will create a PR later today.

Update: I reverted the change in the Plugwise-beta custom_component that I use and restarted HA. I don't see the Schedule select showing after the change so the root-cause of the problem you are bringing up might be somewhere else?

bouwew avatar Dec 10 '25 07:12 bouwew

@bouwew I don't see how I can test the rollbacked change anywhere. Can you publish a branch that I can try through HACS?

whyscream avatar Dec 10 '25 21:12 whyscream

@whyscream please install the plugwise-beta custom_component v0.62.1a0 (this specific version has the change I would like you to test) via HACS and then restart HA. It should replace the HA Plugwise integration one-on-one. Also please make sure to clear your browsers cache.

HA Core 2025.12.3 with plugwise-beta v0.62.1a0, showing the builtin dashboard Overview (/lovelace/0):

Image

And the detail widget for controlling the Anna thermostat from the same dashboard:

Image

On the Anna device page, the "Thermostat schedule" selector is in the Controls block again:

Image

After switching plugwise-beta to v0.62.0, the Overview dashboard looks like this again (the detail widget hasn't changed, and on the device page the selector has logically moved to the Configuration section):

Image

So your revert indeed does bring back the Thermostat schedule selector as a standard control in the builtin dashboard. As I now also found the reverted code, and the PR that introduced the change, I understand better what you did and why. It would be nice if you could revert the change for the Schedule control.

Still don't know how @CoMPaTech got the selector together with the thermostat in 1 card, but I guess that's a custom card :)

Ok no problem, I will revert this change in the Plugwise integration.
