Hiding archived devices / changing the default list view

[jokob-sk]

          @jokob-sk 

Using this thread to ask for further help: is it possible to hide devices marked as archived from the device list? I would like to exclude them from the list of my devices and view them only when I enter the "Archived" section..
Thank you again

Hey @corasaniti,

That's currently not supported.

Any particular reason why you need to hide them instead of Clicking on Online devices to see online ones? Or would the option to change the default view to the Online one work?

I could theoretically implement a custom filter to be applied on the default view, however, let's see if others are looking for similar functionality.

Please describe your request in more detail so I can decide how to implement this if I decide to go forward with it.

Thanks!

I'd also like to see this, I don't want to delete the history of archived devices but I also don't want to see them throughout the UI unless specifically looking at the the Archived section.

For me these devices are old devices that have been replaced (still own) and are unlikely to be turned on again.

I've added a filter - please test this in the pi.alert_dev image once the above build finishes.
