Hello everybody, This is my first time here, and it's also my first experience with anything like this in my entire life. Three weeks ago, I was sitting in front of my computer talking to various AI tools, and I managed to figure out how to fix some configuration files for my current Kerbal Space P…

Welcome to the forum @Miss_Molly I recommend watching this playlist: Node-RED Essentials . The videos are done by the developers of node-red. They're nice & short and to the point. You will understand a whole lot more in about 1 hour. A small investment for a lot of gain.

Hi, welcome to the forum. [image] Miss_Molly: I feel like I have an anvil tied to my feet. Yes, we've all been there for sure. It is actually (for me anyway) part of the fun of working with computers, exploring the unknown. Climbing the hill of learning. Totally worth it when you get to the …

thank you very much I will definitely be taking today when I get home to watch those and hopefully I can put that information onto my canvas and see something actually function the way it's intended So again thank you very much

well thank you very much for the support I hope what I upload is not nearly as bad as I think it is There will be a need for contextual understanding of what I was trying to do but I'll wait until y'all had a chance to read it. :slight_smile: flows.json (114.5 KB)

No problem. I can see that is quite a large flow. Is there a section you can extract that illustrates a problem you are having?

yeah I know it's quite big and it kind of spidered faster than I anticipated I don't know exactly what to expect after I've deployed. I know that there's a couple nodes (more then i realize) that are empty, I don't know how to configure them properly under the context of why they're there. i am sti…

Looking only at your dashboard nodes: Every visual dashboard element must be within the hierarchy A ui-base (defining the URL where the dashboard is displayed, must be /dashboard eg 192.168.1.11:1880/dashboard) containing One or more ui-pages (the dashboard can show multiple pages eg 192.…

Ah, like a nesting doll. I myself designed the flow; I did my best. The dashboard I found off of the Internet, but I believe there were a few ghosts lying around, and I don't know; everything is slowly coming together, I think. "Shrug".

Of course there is a learning curve but it is not as bad as many programming languages. You can get lots of help here, but it's easier to help if we have a small section of the flow to consider, with what you want it to do. And sample data is always helpful. You don't need to give us confidential …

The learning curve, oh ya yeah, this is a big one. I do prefer it over just straight raw interpretation of code That is a total different world for me. I remember learning it in preschool when I was a kid, but that pretty much changed once I hit junior high. Still, now I have got time on my hands Wh…
