Feature Hide Inactive Badge

Hide inactive badges

Only show a badge when it actually has something to report. With hide_inactive_badge, badges that resolve to an empty/zero/off value are hidden — so a count badge appears only when it's greater than zero.

Config key: hide_inactive_badge (top-level boolean) · Default: false

type: custom:tabdeck-card
hide_inactive_badge: true
tabs:
  - name: Inbox
    icon: mdi:email
    badge: sensor.unread        # shows "5"
    card: { ... }
  - name: Done
    icon: mdi:check
    badge: sensor.done_count    # "0" -> badge hidden
    card: { ... }

Behaviour

• A badge is hidden when its resolved value is one of (case-insensitive): "", 0, off, false, no, none, unavailable, unknown, closed.
• Applies in text badge mode. (The dot mode already only shows for active values.)
• Toggle it with the Hide inactive badges switch in the visual editor.
