Title says it... I keep seeing people saying "I just edited a template ..."
How?

There are various ways. It depends upon what you want to edit.

  • The built-in editor allows things like background color changes, tile height/width, color of active and inactive tiles, and so on.

  • If you want more extensive changes, many use CSS.

Maybe describe what you would like to do?

Thanks for the reply. I am trying to adjust the color of some of the on/off tiles like switches. They default to yellow for on and gray for off

This selection is per dashboard, not global to all dashboards. If you want to change only one tile and leave others at default, or have different colors mixed in a dashboard, that is where you have to use CSS.

  • Dashboard tab, select a dashboard.
  • Gear menu, go to the Templates tab.
  • Select a template to work with (switch?), and click on either ON or OFF. You should see a menu where you can pick icon and background colors. Check either or both of those, and a color picker should pop up.
  • Save your selections (it really will save but doesn't show any confirmation) and you should be done.
