Making changes to ddf files in deCONZ UI not seeming to be sticking

deCONZ General Support
1

Hello,

I have a Aqara double rocker with neutral and i can see the DDF file available and it seems to be loading correctly with the exception of the decoupler function.

opening the DDF file i can see the config/clickmode attritbute is not included when i compare it to the single rocker version. this is a separate issue that i am attempting to fix.

when i have tried editing the DDF file directly to include the clickconfig attribute in the Deconz UI saving it doesnt appear to be sticking it just defaults back to the original. i have also tried to upload an edited version the .json file through phoscon and that also doesnt appear to be working.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

What is your OS ?
Try using a text editor instead of the editor. Deconz load DDF only at start, so better to restart deconz after a modification.

So it mean you are using docker ?
So IDK if you have used the persistent folder, but can take a look here How to add/edit a DDF on Home assistant using text editor?

Thanks for the advice i have now managed to edit the DDF file and can see the changes have appeared when looking at the file in DeCONZ.
