Is it possible to stack modes? For example I want to be in “Daytime” mode between hours x-y AND I want to be in “Home” mode when all connected Android devices are present. So my triggers would add mode “Home” and remove mode “Away”. ---

So my triggers would add mode “Home” and remove mode “Away”. You only have one mode variable per hub, so it cannot have two values at the same time. Insteadyou have to start making multiple options that cover allthe situations you want. For example, a lot of people have: Home-daytime Away-daytime Home-Night Away-Night Etc Alternatively, you could probably work something out with Core, but you would have to do it for each rule you set up. > [@FAQ: What is WebCoRE?

It allows you to set up stacked conditionals like “If A then B but only while C and not if D.” Setting it up can be quite complex, but there are many community members who will be glad to help you. For example, here is a piston that one member created to notify him if the dog had already been fed twice that day and he picked up the dog bowl for a third time. He needed this because he has a large family and people didn’t always remember whose turn it was to feed the dog. dogblush [image] The original version of CoRE Has now been replaced by a new version, WebCoRE, which moves the data entry to a web interface.

You may want to skip CoRE and look into webCoRE directly ---

I’ve been suggesting something similar for a while but basically per room modes. That way if the kids have gone to bed, their rooms are in night mode and the rest of the house can be in evening mode or something.
