Breaking
Entity icons are now colored by state by default, matching Home Assistant's entities card since 2026.8. Previously they were uncolored unless you set state_color: true. To restore the old look, set color: none on the row or entity:
- type: custom:multiple-entity-row
entity: light.kitchen
color: noneRows already using state_color or icon_color are unaffected.
What's new
color on the row and on additional entities, following HA's icon color API: state, none, a theme color name (red, deep-purple, accent, ...) or any CSS color. Templatable like icon_color.
- type: custom:multiple-entity-row
entity: binary_sensor.front_door
color: state
entities:
- entity: light.porch
icon: true
color: amberWorks back to HA 2024.4. Theme color names and state need 2026.8+ for the main row icon, since older versions of HA's row don't forward the option — use icon_color there. Additional entities work on all supported versions.
Deprecated
state_color — still accepted and mapped to color (true → state, false → none), and no longer offered in the visual editor.
