Not a problem and glad I could help out. Im not having any issues getting everything discovered but lost when it comes to macros and actually getting it setup to work....
From within the Caseta driver, click on Command Builder select the command for the lighting device and test that you can turn a light that is discovered on / off / toggle.
If you can do that, then copy that command into a button you create in myDesigner on the Server actions.
Save that, load that webpage, and click to see if it works from there.
Those are the high level basics.

There is also a lighting.html in the SmartRemote that should dynamically display lighting devices per room, once you select that room.  The Caseta light needs to be added to that room first.  For a Test, ensure you have a "Living Room" defined.  then, add the lights in the Living room to that room in the Caseta driver.  The UI should then populate when you select the example floorplan's Living Room.

I was able to add the hard buttons on get the main lights in the theater room to turn on and off after saving them. 

As far as the UI populating the floorplan, how exactly does that work? I went to the lighting.htlm page and added the floorplan and listed the title page as "Basement"- that is how I have the Caseta room named for the hub in the driver. The hub name is Basement Hub. Then each dimmer in the basement is linked to that. 

The floor plan image is massive compared to the remote size and nothing that I see has auto populated.

The Lighting floorplan view showcases myServer's ability to PAN the user interface.  Just click it on the smartremote and drag to get to the other side of the "house".
There is an in development "lighting_basic.html" that will be soon available that will just show you a dynamicaly built list of lighting devices based on the room you choose.

sounds like you are getting close to figuring this stuff out.  Soon.

Download and update to the latest smartremote-sample template.  A new lighting.html webpage allows for easy selection by room of your lighting devices without having to build a custom webpage.

Of course once you have this working, then you can build your own custom floorplan view etc.
