Rename "Usage 1" and "Usage 2"
Is it possible to rename "Usage 1" and "Usage 2" to "Usage high" and "Usage low"?

Re: Rename "Usage 1" and "Usage 2"
I came across it when I changed the text of my virtual counter. Before you start making changes it is maybe wise to keep a copy of the original file in case you screw it up like I did.
Edit the language file in the folder: domoticz/www/i18n/. Copy the file to your PC and uncompress it. Use a json editor to edit the file, save it and compress it as a gzip file.
Replace the original compressed file by the new one, reboot your Pi and clear your browser cache.

if it was easy everybody would do it

Re: Rename "Usage 1" and "Usage 2"
Hi,
I also tried downloading, editing the files as was suggested and put back the new file (.gz packed with 7zip) via psftp, but I am not seeing the changes in the Domoticz interface unfortunately. I rebooted, cleared browser cache, tried a different browser (that was not used to open my Domoticz url before).
So hoping there is another way of doing this, or that I am missing something.
Any help would be appreciated!

Fixed, probably a typing error at the time of writing...Thorgal789 wrote: ↑Monday 20 January 2025 14:18 (And BTW the post have been hijacked to insert a spam url on the file folder)

The problem is that in every country this can mean something different, depending of the implementation by the energy supplier. For example in Belgium and The Netherlands (both Dutch (NL) speaking) the meaning is reversed....
