Do you use the regular (master) version or the beta?
If you use the original version, try the CONFIG.JS I've added as an attachment first..

BUT: it doesent use this config.js: if i do any modifications: They are stored in local storage: config.js dont get any modifications.
I can edit the settings correcty and they're applied correctly:
I'm not able to add tiles and save.

I was able to get my Dashticz connected using the original config. JS BUT i had to modify it folowing:

I have a problem getting Dashticz to work after the latest update, before that it worked like you would >expect (showing my favourits from Domoticz).

Since i've updated Dashticz i'm having problems getting information, it is stuck at saying Domoticz >offline. I even removed Dashticz and reinstalled it but that didnt help either 😢 .

After the reinstalled i didnt configure the CONFIG.js so i could see the default page (like before) with >example data. This wasnt showing up, after that i entered the IP and port number, saved the config and >rebooted the Domoticz server, problem still not solved.

I've tested it on two different devices, and with 3 different browsers. Firefox says Domoticz Offline, >Edge and Chrome say connection refused. I dont use authentication.

any ideas?

Solved the problem! After a few reboots I got the Dashticz example page, i used the gear to make a >config and copied the data to a blanc config.js file. After that, it worked! After some troubleshooting it >became clear that the problem was with the columns part in the example config file. After removing >those lines, the problem was solved.

So my config file looked like:

var config = {} config['domoticz_ip'] = 'https://10.0.0.13:8900';
config['app_title'] = 'Dashticz';
config['domoticz_refresh'] = '5';
config['dashticz_refresh'] = '60';

Instead of:

[/code]

For this method: no changes can be made and the config.js got no changes.

Use the wiki to get started http://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Dashticz_V2

[antipiot]

So did I. Then I came here.

[DewGew]

Is this still an issue?

[batlol]

I'd like to add that I too have this issue, I can change the config in my CONFIG.js file and it is visible within the dashticz_v2 webinterface, however trying to change something within the webinterface (top right corner) it does not save it, after refreshing and opening the settings again (webinterface top right) its changed back to what it was before changing.

And I am also not able to see my Domoticz switches within the dashboard.

[batlol]

Changing the CONFIG.js to a empty one with only:

var config = {}
config['domoticz_ip'] = 'http://192.168.178.248:8080';
config['app_title'] = 'Dashticz';
config['domoticz_refresh'] = '5';
config['dashticz_refresh'] = '60';

var blocks = {}
blocks['blocktitle_1'] = {}
blocks['blocktitle_1']['key'] = 'blocktitle_1';
blocks['blocktitle_1']['type'] = 'blocktitle';
blocks['blocktitle_1']['title'] = 'Test!';

var screens = {}
screens[1] = {}
screens[1]['background'] = 'bg2.jpg';
screens[1]['columns'] = [1,2,3]

It seems to loadin the Domoticz switches.

EDIT:
Changing the settings within the dashboard still does NOT work.

Same here! I followed the tips with replacing the config file.
Started from scratch - never used Dashticz before (downloaded the ZIP file from https://github.com/Dashticz/dashticz_v2
Using Dashticz on my syno DS218. Installed it at the /web/DashticzV2 folder and the webstation with DSM6.1 (Apache HTTP server 2.2 and PHP 7.0)

With the renamed CONFIG.js file I only get the icons for news, train etc,
With the "emptied" config file the icons from the dashboard of Domotica, but no changes can be made.

I managed to get some config.js but adding icons manually was not possible. And automatically I have the same temperature 10 times, gas 6 times or so :( So went back to the original config.js, looking to a screen with only nu.nl news, some bus-travelings near Eindhoven and sunrise/sunset times. Thats about it :O
I hope this can be solved: the screendumps look promising so far!

Finally I think what the problem is - the CONFIG.js file has only write permissions by default for "owner".

After login in with WinSCP, go to the web-folder of your installation, /custom, right click (properties) for the CONFIG.js file and enable also the Writing permissions for owner, group, other.

After changing this the settings are finally saved.

i am have the same problem.

Domoticz : Version 4.9700
Dashticz is version 2.

I run SHH to install it and follow the wiki page
After that tried it in EDGE, but get the info that there is no connection whit domoticz.
When running in CHROME, i have no error. But also missing the favorite buttons.

Tried all the things you guys wrote here.
A empty CONFIG.js and only the basis items.
Give the config.js file all the permissions, but nothing helped.

When running the F12 function
It says 16 SCRIPT7016: SCRIPT7016: Gebruik van XMLHttpRequest waarvoor de synchrone vlag is ingesteld op waar, is afgewezen vanwege de impact ervan op de door de gebruiker ervaren site-prestaties.

Don't know how the fix this.
Somebody has an idea?
