Category display issues with BuiltIn Webcore App

Migrated to the new BuiltIn Webcore, but having some problems.

I backed up the App code version, setup the new instance using BuiltIn App, added the Hubitat Devices and then created a test piston to add my global variables.

I then imported the pistons from the backup, which appeared to have worked well.

All pistons imported were added as Uncategorised, so went through adding them into categories.

The groupings are having issues rendering on screen and cannot open the category groups.

Initially it had {} variables instead of labels on the Hubitat icon.

Have tried logging out and back in, as well as rebooting the hub, but to no avail.

Thoughts?


I am able to replicate by refreshing the page, but logging out and back in solved the problem for me. This looks more of an issue on the dashboard side. Tagging @ipaterson to see if he has any suggestions.

Thanks for the assist.

I reverted everything back to Uncategorised, and then started moving one at a time to a category.

Got as far as 5 items, moved one item into Blinds and same symptoms occurred again.

This is something that @nh.schottfam and I were working on last week, it should be fixed on https://staging.webcore.co if you update to the latest version of the webCoRE groovy apps. The problem is that in order to reduce overhead the smart apps were only providing data to the dashboard when the data had changed, but it had no way to know when the dashboard page was refreshed and needed all of that initial data. The fix makes sure that when you load a dashboard page it always gets the full data and caching only steps in for subsequent requests.

Ah sorry the previous reply was specific to the {{getLocationMode()}} problem but I see that you have observed the categorization issue separately. Can you confirm that Settings > Categories does not have any of those categories marked as "hidden" or "tile only"? If so try changing back to the default "Details" mode.

Ah, OK, the Blinds was set to Medium Tiles, not Details.... that might have something to do with it! Changed to Details and I have moved three items into blinds and it displays correctly in the list.
