Re: Storing parameters passed to webserver as a variable.

After a lot of searching and playing around I have figured out that what I was searching for was

Code: Select all

eg.event.payload
That variable contains the extra data sent via the webserver. Now I just have to parse it out which should be easy.

Storing parameters passed to webserver as a variable.

I would like to use the webserver plugin to play a file on my PC that is specified by the url.

Re: Jump action stopped working

It looks like they were not working because it was set to only execute if the last step succeeds and sometimes it does not succeed.

Usually when tracking down things like this you want to narrow the problem down so I started just running the individual actions which appears to never work on a jump ...

Macro: Watch TV
Action: Jump to "HDMI4" and return

Re: Jump action stopped working

I attached a simplified version where I deleted everything out of the file but one of the jumps and the macro it points to. The HDMI4 macro works fine. The Watch TV Macro doesn't work.

Re: Jump action stopped working

I am having this problem and can not figure out how to fix it. None of my Jumps are working. I made a copy of my file to experiment with and deleted things one at a time to see if something was causing confusion and after deleting everything but a simple jump it still doesn't work.
