Renamed Camera Name Does Not "Take" in Modes

R_Lowe — Tue, 27 Sep 2016 18:10:28 GMT

Over the weekend I moved one of my cameras from outside to inside. I called the latter "Back Porch," and have successfully renamed it "Master Bedroom." HOWEVER, the old "Back Porch" camera name still appears in my Modes. It is not only in the modes I previously set up but appears in NEW modes I have made after the name change.

I've tried logging out, rebooting my computer, all to no avail. Would the remedy be something like, say, removing it from my camera list entirely (disabling?) and reinstalling on the webpage? You would think that the camera's name would change everywhere.... Can anybody offer some assistance? Thanks.

I moved a camera a while ago but don't remember whether I had to do anything other than to rename the camera in the camera settings. I'd think you also need to rename the rule for the camera appropriately. That would seem to be the trick.

Rename cameras in settings, camera settings AND for the various rules.
