MQTT Text Display on Dashboard

Configuration
1

Hello everyone,

Quick question regarding displaying custom text on the dashboard — is it possible at the moment

2

The text-from-an-MQTT-object feature works very well.

Here is an example below shown on a dashboard of my setup.

I send here the text planning to the device mode and you will find the topic to publish to directly when you create the MQTT feature

Thanks @_Will_71,

I hadn’t fully grasped the concept of the virtual device, and I had disabled « Is it a sensor ». But leaving it enabled indeed makes it work perfectly :+1:
