OH3 from 2.5 Rule no longer seems to work?

Managed to solve my problem.

Was using the Following as a basis:

Input field for number/free text for openHAB UIs

Well, This is a hack I am using. It is not the cleanest approach, but at least does the trick for me, so sharing in case it is useful for others. I use a mix of text items, rules, and sitemap entries to simulate a “keypad” and a “input text item” on the android app (but it should work in other UIs also). [image] What you need: A text item (of course, to receive the input) A text item to be used (or mis-used ) to receive “key strokes” Some sitemap entries to build the keypad A…

And inadvertently changed the name of the group - which is being used to facilitate the rules operation. Pretty rookie move

An item is used to receive keystrokes. This item must be in the “TextInput” group for the rule to use it. The target text item name is specified in the Label for this keypad item (not the best use of labels either)

But on the up side I learnt a whole lot about logging.
