Dynamically change for admin_settings: and non_admin_settings:

[Pro-Control]

for many reasons, I need to change kiosk mode for admin and non_admin but I can't find a way to do it at the same time only one work my suggestion if it is possible to do it like below or another way that can control Each category separately :

Example ..:

  non_admin_settings:
    - entity:
       input_boolean.kiosk_mode_user: 'on'
       kiosk: true

  admin_settings:
    hide_header: true
    - entity:
       input_boolean.kiosk_mode_admin: 'on'
      kiosk: true

Hi @Pro-Control,
Please, check this discussion. Your configuration is wrong because only entity_settings admits entities inside and you cannot mix different conditions configs.

Hi @elchininet
thank you for your reply
I know my configuration is wrong I said this suggestion did not match the document ...
All I need is to control Each category separately

[Pro-Control]

thanks @elchininet, unfortunately, there is no way to solve it under currently configurations

Do I don't understand what you want to do or is the solution just to do this:

kiosk_mode:
  admin_settings:
    hide_header: true
  entity_settings:
    - entity:
       input_boolean.kiosk_mode_user: 'on'
      kiosk: true
    - entity:
       input_boolean.kiosk_mode_admin: 'on'
      kiosk: true

or even simpler

kiosk_mode:
  admin_settings:
    hide_header: true
  entity_settings:
    - entity:
       input_boolean.kiosk_mode: 'on'
      kiosk: true

@NemesisRE,
What he is trying to do is to add entity_settings under admin_settings and under non_admin_settings so it can change entities and control admins and non admins separately. Something that is not supported because entity event changes are global (it should be under kiosk_mode) and they override any other conditional configuration.

[NemesisRE]

So it's the first code?
oh no I see if any entity setting switches kiosk on it's on

That means the simpliest solution could be to have one input_boolean for global kiosk mode and maybe a link in the admin dashboard with the url parameter

[elchininet]

So it's the first code?

Not really, because when one changes something with entities (for example kiosk: true) it changes overall (for admins and non admins, at least that there is an ingnore_entity_settings under those). So having two inputs that sets the same global variable will not make that it only works for admins or non admins.

oh no I see if any entity setting switches kiosk on it's on

That's right.

That would require not only to create entity change events for users, admins, non admins and mobiles, but also to rethink and change the whole overriding logic of all conditional configs.

With kiosk-mode one normally wants to apply things for certain users, or specific things for admins and non-admins but it is a very specific case to do it dynamically for both separately, something that is not supported.

Hi @Pro-Control,

This pull request contains something in which I have been working lately and it is related in some way to this discussion. Please, read the description of the pull request but you can also check the documentation in the branch.

Please, if you can test this gist and check if you can spot errors or unwanted issues it would be helpful.
