HS4 4.2.18.29 is ready for testing.

This build fixes reported issues found with 4.2.18.28.

Changes from the last Beta are in the release notes.

PLEASE READ THE RELEASE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING THIS BUILD!

All Changes: Release Notes

When updating to build 4.2.17.X or later the saved format of the events has changed. If you go back to a previous build of HS4 (before 4.2.17.X) you will lose all of your event actions. Your configuration is backed up automatically when you update to a new version of HS4. You can use this back up if you downgrade your installation. As always, do a full back up of your system just to be safe! You can backup from the tools menu in HS4. See the release notes for more details.

Installing:

Before installing any Beta it is a good idea to back up your system! Run the backup from the tools menu. On Windows you can simply copy the HS4 folder to another folder. Just copy it back if needed.

* You can install this Beta from within HS4, just go to the General page in Setup (Windows or Linux)

See the release notes for download links and instructions on how to revert to a previous version of HS4 if needed.

The AND in search isn't working for me (Linux). For example, searching for:
UPB AND Cans; No results
UPB: Results
Cans: Results

[rjh]

The AND is a tag. Enter "AND" (all caps) then hit enter. Now all future tags you enter will be ANDED.

It is working here without issue AFAIK. I haven’t done anything with web management in weeks as my system is working the way expected and nothing needed changing. Today my one of my last HS-WS100s failed and I replaced it with an HS-WS200. The new feature of linking to events using the device made it a breeze to edit a handful of events. After fixing the events, I removed the old bad node through the Z-Wave tab.

Just like BMW, they get all the bugs out of the current engineering chassis and voila! Out they come with something newer that will take a couple of years to debug. It's called progress (with a little pain built in)

I think I may have the same problem. Selecting a Category from the Category button cause the devices page to go blank (No devices shown). But if I click on the Devices tab then the devices show with the category filter applied.

Me too. If I select a Room the device page goes blank. Either go back from that blank page, or select Devices and the filtered list is displayed.

Ditto here on this one. I am also on Linux.

[rjh]

Are you talking about the Room button, then a dialog appears, then you select a room? I cannot recreate this. Are you viewing the devices as a grid or a list? Is a filter already set?

It looks like you are Linux, I am seeing this issue on Linux, looking into it.
