  • Persistent store flag fixed for JustTextPlugin, IconTextPlugin and IconTextLampPlugin.

Breaking Changes

  • Home Assistant support for multiple discovery entities, which are related to only one plugin/feature entity added. This has an impact on the Home Assistant object-id and unique-id generation! It adds the possibility now to change the icon for the IconTextPlugin, IconTextLampPlugin and MultiIconPlugin via Home Assistant.
