# Settings - Rules
|
|
|
|
<!-- START MAINUI SIDEBAR DOC - DO NOT REMOVE -->
|
|
**Rules** are the heart of home automation - automate with triggers, actions and conditions.
|
|
Rules can be as simple as a directive to turn on a single light at a given time but the use of scripting languages and Blockly also allows much more complex automations.
|
|
|
|
Community made Rule Templates can also be added to your system from the **Automation** tab of the add-on store.
|
|
|
|
There is a [rules concepts page]({{base}}/concepts/rules.html) that explains the idea of rules in detail, and a comprehensive introduction to rules in the [rules tutorial]({{base}}/tutorial/rules_basic.html).
|
|
|
|
On this page you can manage all the basic rules you have added to your system:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- **Add new Rules**<br>
|
|
Add rules using the <!--F7:blue plus_circle_fill --> plus button.
|
|
- **Configure Rules**<br>
|
|
Click on any rule in the list to configure the rule or write a script action for the rule.
|
|
- **Delete Rules**<br>
|
|
Select multiple rules using the top **Select** button and use the **Remove** button at the bottom or use the <span style="color: red">Remove Rule</span> button on the individual rule pages.
|
|
- **Enable/Disable Rules**<br>
|
|
Select multiple rules using the top **Select** button and use the **Enable** or **Disable** buttons at the bottom or use <!--F7 pause_circle --> pause button on the individual rule pages.
|
|
- **Manually run Rules**<br>
|
|
Use the <!--F7:blue play --> play button on the individual rule pages to have the rule run all actions immediately.

The page has a searchable list of rules with the following attributes:
|
|
|
|
- name
|
|
- unique id
|
|
- description
|
|
- enabled state (disabled, enabled, idle, running)
|
|
- tags
|
|
|
|
The searchbar allows to filter by the name, the description and the tags of that rule.
|
|
|
|
When clicking "select" in the top right corner, the list allows to select multiple entries at the same time:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After selecting one or multiple rules three options appear in the footer to allow
|
|
|
|
- removing
|
|
- disabling or
|
|
- enabling
|
|
|
|
these rules.
|
|
Press "Done" to return back to the normal list view.
|
|
|
|
To add a rule press the plus icon  in the lower right corner and follow the [rules tutorial]({{base}}/tutorial/rules_basic.html#create-the-rule).
