As discussed [here](https://community.openhab.org/t/semantichomemenu-for-openhab…-4-discussions/152202/192) and [here](https://community.openhab.org/t/semantichomemenu-for-openhab-4-discussions/152202/222), there was room for some more "if" cases. For the scene UID, I didn't know where exactly to have the "processing" of the if statements take place. I went with "postponing" the calculation for when the actual scenes widget, rather than in the main widget. I reworked the architecture a bit, so non-relevant categories become invisible in the security widget. Furthermore, I deleted the `filter` configuration, since the group items should only contain relevant items.

Since I can’t comment here before someone else does, I have no option but to edit my last post.

Anyway, since upgrading to 5.0, my “Security” tab shows nothing. I tried the code found on @hmerk’s GitHub (semanticHomeMenu/main/semanticHomeMenu.yaml at main · hmerk/semanticHomeMenu · GitHub & semanticHomeMenu/security/semanticHomeMenu_Security.yaml at main · hmerk/semanticHomeMenu · GitHub), and this is the result:

It works in the widget preview though:

I tested this with Google Chrome as well as Firefox…

Does anyone have a clue?
