There’s a couple of plugins that can make your life in Homeseer a lot easier.

Account Links (by Jon00)
Webpage Builder (by Jon00)

Account Links

What?
This allows you to change the look & feel of the Homeseer admin user interface. The most important functionality for me is adding a bar with links to:

– Device groups
– Event groups

Why?
Because you can highly customize the admin interface to match YOUR needs, behavior and usage patterns.

Example: Yellow: devices, blue: events (screenshot split in 2 parts)

 

 

 

You can also
– create drop-down menu’s for items that you do not use that often
– create links to other applications
– modify colors & size of the buttons

In typical Jon00 style this is all configured through an .ini file. Not ideal but you only have to do it once!

Webpage Builder

What
The Webpage builder allows you to create a webpage by just putting items in an .ini file. Device values, strings, buttons, etc

Why
Without programming you can now create a nice looking webpage. There are a lot of options so you have to spend some time testing.

Example (click to zoom)
In typical Jon00 style this is all configured through an .ini file. This is actually quite difficult but it’s worth the trouble.

 

While we’re on the subject
