Title: direct URL to a specific control page of a group
Post by: domotica86 on August 16, 2015, 09:15:35 PM

Hi,

I want to give my kids access to be able to control the lights in their room. As of now it is not possible to limit the use to one group. But is there a way I can direct them to a specific control page instead of the dashboard?

I don't think that's possible right now.  The only thing I could suggest that may get you what you need is to either:

• write a simple interface (web/script/etc) that would call the commands to control the lights they should have access to
• install a second system (RPi, HG on their PC, etc) that controls the specific lights via the primary HG installation

I don't know how well the second option would work as I've never tried it, but I think it would be cleaner than the first option if you can get it to work.  I think the best option in the long run is for HG to have multiple users so access to specific functions can be granted.
