@joepavitt I'm having trouble using UI control! I send the object to it with the page I want to display and nothing works. I confess that I find the use of pages and groups in dashboard 2.0 quite confusing. Create a page and place an element in it without a group and the page is not displayed on th…

@joepavitt Now trying this approach without success. Using a function node to do a simple password validation and thus implementing the panel and groups that such a password can show. if (msg.payload === "780705") { node.send({ payload: { "page": "Neway Automações" } }); setTimeout(functi…

Which version of @flowfuse/node-red-dashboard are you running? Do you see any errors in the Node-RED debug panel, the the developer tools console in the browser, or in the console logs for Node-RED itself?

[image] [image] function in use if (msg.payload === '780705') { node.send({ payload: { 'page': 'Neway Automações' }}); setTimeout(function () { node.send({ payload: { groups: { show: [ 'Neway Automações:Fitas…

I think you need a page name for each group msg.payload = { pages: { show: ['<Page Name>', '<Page Name>'], hide: ['<Page Name>'] } groups: { show: ['<Page Name>:<Group Name>', '<Page Name>:<Group Name>'], hide: ['<Page Name>:<Group Name>'] } }

I have a PR I can get in this afternoon to help with the error reporting here: UI Control: Ensure better error reporting for ui-control when group/pages not found & update tests by joepavitt · Pull Request #633 · FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard · GitHub I'll try and get a 1.3.1 out with it in.

Yes, I'm already adding it, but it still doesn't work when you try to run it for multiple groups.

This is not related to the "Problem using ui-control" topic, please post this either in a new GitHub issue, or in a new topic on the forum.

Apologies, I completely missed the colon :

I tried it and it works, I got the error message when the page / group did not exist. Just a thought but are all the spellings correct? I also found that if I wanted the last page mentioned to be onscreen I had to switch to it. This may be outside of the code shown

@joepavitt Problems resolved for creating multiple users. I still encounter some obstacles, but I'm learning to work around them until they are resolved. I still can't offer this to customers after I don't feel confident in 2.0, but I know I will be able to in a short time. [a1]
