Hi Community, With openHAB 5.0 on the horizon, it’s the perfect time to gather your ideas, suggestions, and feature requests for the next major release. We’ve seen significant improvements in recent versions, but what features or enhancements are still missing? What could further enhance the user e…

[image] STSC: I think the user only wants to add its energy meter thing, that’s it; graphing, logging, everything is done automatically. To be honest, I think this is really difficult to achieve, as there are many different ways to connect a energy meter (smartmeter). I have already publishe…

[image] rlkoshak: Not quite right. Again, if you open another thread I can go into details and answer other questions. Lets keep semantic in another thread, cause I really dont get it, while I need to ask some specific questions :slight_smile: [image] rlkoshak: The column percents are ra…

Someone sometime finally made ‘Latest Post’ the default in the search page instead of ‘Relevance’ which I had be asking for… forever I now feel openHAB is perfect in ever way and we no longer ever need to have any of these type discussions or work on the code. :upside_down_face: I just checked my …

That way I can have the overview page as full screen but if I need the side menu I don’t have to click the …

Regarding new features added in each mew major version, there is always a blog post published to announce them. This is of course a must to read. Here is where custom tags were announced; [image] openHAB 4.1 Release As usual before christmas, we are happy to announce a new release of op…

I didn’t know there was a blog :grimacing: I always scroll through the release notes, but most of them are beyond me. Next time, I’ll search for the blog! (Or it might be an idea to put a link to the blog in the release notes.)

Perhaps it could be possible, to indroduce a mechanism, that there is no need to store user and password data in config file based configurations. I would like to save my openhab configuration at github… but with account data in the files, of course that is no way. Greetings, Thomas

Oh!! Another :slight_smile: real user management. It’s a bother to have to go through CLI… sure most people will use the dashboards but would help in homes where development may be done by different people.
