I essentially just chopped this section from the plugin topic so it didn’t appear as if you needed to know it to make use of the existing ones. 🙂

I agree that it would be great if this was a little bit more of a step-by-step. I’ve sent out a flare for community assistance here to see if anyone has experience of such things: 🤞

([Create custom Automations](https://meta.discourse.org/t/create-custom-automations/275931/1)) I’m looking to flesh out the instructions/guide, and it’d be great if I could include some community-created examples (as well as tap anyone up for a bit of knowledge-sharing slight_smile)
