Found it. Somehow that avatar was attached to MY name in the contacts list. No idea how or when that happened. The contact list was imported into Roundcube from an export from my phone. That avatar was also on the contact (of me) on my phone. Problem solved. Still no idea how I got that particular p...

Same thing on two different machines and browsers.

By the way, the image looks like the avatar of a user here on the forum.

I was thinking the same thing...... Weird.

Could it be a cache issue of your email application? Or a hash function collision, where some association of a cached file is somehow the same hash value for some other string. Years ago I had something similar, where a company logo of someone I know was somehow shown as avatar for someone else. I ...

It is connected to an account at your email provider? And what email client is used? That might try to find the avatar 'intelligently' :shock: I use SMTP2go and I just searched all over that account and can't find a single thing about an avatar in the account. Also just searched through all setting...

Hello. I use an email notification when my watering system runs. The notification has been working quite well. I am curious about one thing though. In the header of the message there is an image and I wonder where it comes from. See the picture attached. Clipboard Image.jpg I have no idea where that...

Hello i got some details but not enough because theres no option actual to get in the data explorer. I tried today some different changes in rules but i got 2 states: No Errors, and no Executions or Errors and no executions, under the attachments you find screenshots. Do you have a switch device de...

Not really a wild thought, I'm thinking in the line of: PostToHTTP,<ip>,<port>,<url>,[<header:value>],@<filename> in the good old tradition of referencing a file via the @ character ;) I'll see if that's doable within reasonable code size Cool. Sounds good. Meanwhile I will try to wrap my brain aro...

How difficult would this be.........? I have an idea growing in my head that goes like this. Store plain text messages on the file system of the esp. Arrange them like message1, message 2 ect. The message could be just about anything.... From rules when you want a particular message sent you make th...

Nope, time to start testing as he already made a pull request for it.... https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/pull/4486 Yessir!! Getting right on it!! :geek: :geek: Tested with the "if" back in the statement and by golly it works! Seems another dragon has met its match. :lol: :lol:

You nailed it! Took the "if" out of the statement and it works.
Time to start investigating.....

budman1758

You could add quotes around the "title:%sysname%" part, to ensure it's seen as 1 part for PostToHTTP to digest. Like this? This command gets the same thing. No workie. PostToHTTP 192.168.1.58,80,meds,"title:%sysname%","Its %sysweekday_s% %systm_hm_am% Did you take your meds...

budman1758

Seeing that conditionMatchExtended log responding to the "if" in the message seems a bit weird, possibly related to a (bad) quoting issue Edit: Does the %sysname% have commas, spaces or quotes? System name is ESP_Easy_ntfy Put double quotes instead of single around the "message"...

budman1758

can you try: On Clock#Time=all,10:50 Do PostToHTTP 192.168.1.58,80,meds,title:%sysname%,'Its %sysweekday_s% @ %systm_hm_am% Did you take your meds yet?. If not then get off your butt and take them!!' Endon it is the more correct syntax… as provided in the documentation. Still no workie. Nothing in ...

budman1758

Well. I don't know why but for some reason I can't get my test unit to post from a rule. The message works fine from command line but the rule does not. This command works fine from the tools page...

budman1758

seems like somebody made it happen and needs people to test it.

Tested and from what I can see, seems to be working fine!

budman1758

seems like somebody made it happen and needs people to test it.

Great! Will give it a go. Need a day or 3 to actually get some time to set up a unit and test.

budman1758

The main issue is more, that you can not use it in rules like SendToHTTP and therefore can not choose which text is send.

In an ideal world that would be the best way to be able to use it. Hint, hint, nudge, nudge.

budman1758

Pretty sure HTTPS is NOT required to post an http message. I have a self-hosted server instance of this and it will work either way

I recently came across this project and think its a great solution for sending notifications to a phone from ESPEasy. https://docs.ntfy.sh/ I have been attempting to send a message via ESPEasy from command line and can't seem to get it to work. Is it possible and if so could someone help me with for...

budman1758

Nope, you're not the first user to encounter this. But the problem is that we really should limit the number of writes to the flash. And just to think about... When you need to 'recover' from a blackout, it is probably best not to switch to the last state, but rather some failsafe situation. A long...

budman1758

Can you try while removing the ":80" port number from the URL, like this: On Clock#Time=all,14:25 Do sendtohttp,'http://192.168.1.81/win&T=1' Endon No workie. EVENT: Clock#Time=Thu,9:20 69180823: ACT : sendtohttp,'http: 69180827: SendToHTTP: Invalid port argument: 0 will use: 80 69180...

OK. Using the action build @TD-er linked. sendtohttp,'http://192.168.1.81:80/win&T=1' This does NOT work from rules. It DOES work from command line in the tools page.

New format DOES work on the tools page.

Seems the "old" format works fine. Pretty new build this is working on....

I have no idea why I didn't try that....

Works in rules and command line on tools page.

I have a simple rule that fires at sunset and sunrise every day. One of the commands does not work in the rule but works fine in the command line on the tools page. sendtohttp,'http://192.168.1.81:80/win&T=1' That command turns on and off a WLED instance on another unit. 0 or 1 at the end will t...

budman1758

Sounds good. Looking forward to it.

budman1758

I just picked up a couple of these modules. Are they supported? If not, can they be without a huge hassle? Or should I just put them away for a while?

Thanks a bunch!! Looks great. Methinks the dark mode should be standard equipment on all builds.

chromo23 wrote: ↑12 Nov 2022, 20:43 @budman1758 are you able to make your own build or do you need one?

I'm not set up to make my own builds yet. Did'nt mean to hijack the thread. The option to enable the dark mode is not on the advanced settings page.

budman1758

I also noticed there is no dark mode option in the "ESP_Easy_mega_20221105_collection_A_ESP8266_4M1M.bin". Was looking forward to that for my keypad unit upgrade. Need Keypad - HT16K33 and RFID - PN532 in the same build.

Not to worry. Don't think I'm gonna get THAT big.

budman1758

That's good to know. Thanks.

budman1758

You seem to expect that every of the 4 files has a separate 'meaning', but in fact they are only split because of a previous limitation of the web-editor used. To be explicit: These 4 files are processed as if they are 1 file, handled sequentially, if they exist. So what exactly is the rule file si...

budman1758

Are the pullup/pulldown internal resistors in the ESP32 supposed to be working? I can't seem to get them to work at all in either direction. Trying to get push buttons to work and I get nothing. Tried on several different general purpose GPIO and getting nowhere. Setting state at hardware page and r...

budman1758

OK, that use case does look very frightening to me. So please reconsider whether you want to go on with this, as I would not like to see anyone get hurt by some truck that's moving without someone at the wheel. The truck has an automatic trans that has a park function also. I drove this truck aroun...

Can you provide a datasheet or the brand and model you have? All the info I have is whats available here. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072F3KNRK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Or here. https://zoomindustrial.com/products/zoom-industrial-heavy-duty-linear-actuator-6-inch-...

OK, so I have this linear actuator I want to control with an ESP32. According to the vast amount of documentation (har har) I got with it, it has a hall effect sensor in it. What I am trying to do is read that sensor and during movement when the movement stops I want to trigger a relay to cut the po...

Seems I had a power issue after all. Working as it should now.

Where is the best place for feature requests these days?

budman1758

I will see about the power issue.

budman1758

This is about as close as it's got to actually booting. There is more than enough power going to the module. I get pretty much the same no matter what binary I try to use. 2 modules are doing the exact same thing. I have a couple new ones on order. I have a dozen of these tho..... :? :? rst:0x1 (POW...

Do you have a bit more info on the boards?

I don't remember the details on these too well. I bought them quite some time ago. It was well before ESPEasy supported them much.
I will see what I can dig up.

budman1758

I dug out some ESP32 modules that have been sitting around for some time to play with. Been trying to flash them and all I get are boot loops no matter which binary I try to use. Have several and getting the same results EVERY time. Here is a picture of one of them. The modules are soldered to a sma...

I'm a bit confused about how a switch setup is working. The switch is build into a rotary encoder so its a momentary switch. I have GPIO set up as "input-pullup" and in the device page for the switch I have the switch type as "push button active low". Setting for longpress is not...

budman1758

Do you need the actual time of day? Then see the sysvars page on the ESP for all the various time related variables you should be able to use anywhere, also in rules and in display plugins. On the RPIEasy variables page the only one there is for system uptime is displayed as seconds. That is what I...

budman1758

I'm using the sysinfo plugin for display purposes. Is there an easy formula that can go in the formula "box" in the plugin settings that will convert the seconds to day, hour, minute, second format?
Or if not can that format be added as a variable?

budman1758

The interval setting controls the time between page turns. Won't setting it to zero achieve what you want?

EDIT: I see now that trying to set to zero after submit it defaults to 60 seconds.

Seems like an option setting for being able to do this is a good idea.

budman1758

Thats a great idea! I just updated on of my units but can't seem to be able to access it. How do you enable this?

EDIT: Nevermind... Found it.

budman1758

Perhaps you could provide a bit more detail of your particular use case.

budman1758

I guess taskvalueset can be enhanced to work on first value, if only two parameters added, but i was lazy to implement it.

Probable more trouble than it's worth. Might open a can of worms....
