Switch item=VSX923_Zone1SetInputSource mappings=[06=“Yes”, 15=“AppleTV”, 22=“PlayStation”]
Slider item=VSX923_Zone1VolumeDimmer
Setpoint item=VSX923_Zone1VolumeDb minValue=-80 maxValue=0 step=1
Switch item=VSX923_Zone1Mute mappings=[ON=“Mute”, OFF=“Un-Mute”]
}
}
Text item=iPhone_Home
}

There is probably an error in your items file and it’s not loaded
What does the logs say when you save the items file?

this is my item file
/Living Room Reciver/
String VSX923_DisplayInformationDisplayInformation “Display” (GlivinRoon) {channel=“pioneeravr:ipAvr2014:5F9EC1B3-ED59-79BB-4530-745e1c317d54:displayInformation#displayInformation”}

String iPhone_Home “Barak Home”

haven’t got any error while saving

i have removed the group and seems like everything is OK now, why?

5

Because the group wasn’t defined?

Your sitemap entry -

This tells the UI to find and display a Group type Item named LivingRoom.

This error message tells you that a group called LivingRoom cannot be found.

So we need to look at your Items file.
The items you have shown us do not include any group called LivingRoom.
So, there’s the problem.

Some of the Items you’ve shown us have (GlivinRoon)
That means they should be made members of a group called GlivinRoon - but there isn’t one of those either.

You have to define Groups just the same way as you define an Item.
An example items file

Group mygroup "this is an example group"
Number thisItem "this is a group member" (mygroup)
Switch thatItem "another group member" (mygroup)

To show the group on a sitemap, this is all that is needed

Group item=mygroup

The UI will display the member items
