Hi,

I really have no idea how to make my own custom dashticz view, i readed the wiki over and over and looked at the config files in the dashticz folder. I browsed this dashticz forum on domoticz.com for hours and i just can't find out how to start.

Right now i have dashticz on my tablet with all the switches and sensors imported from the domoticz dashboard page, i used the config_default.js for this. How do i build my own? I really don't understand how to program it in those CONFIG.js and CUSTOM.js files :(

Is there some tutorial that helps me learn the basics?

Also if i enter settings in dashticz, they don't do anything and are not safed.

Start changing

config['auto_positioning'] and config['use_favorites']. When you set them to 0 (zero) you can start defining your own blocks.

Ah, and better change it directly using e.g. nano, not Dashticz save feature.

Hi HansieNL, i already readed the wiki over and over but i could not make much about it.

Oke no idea what nano means but i assume it has to do with sudo nano commands. Do i need them? i thougt i could connect with WinSCP and just edit config.js with notepad++

Anyway ok, ill just try and see. Thanks!

Excuse me, I was not clear. I was saying that you should edit CONFIG.js directly (no matter which text editor), not save it in Dashticz editor. Start defining one block, one page, etc.
