Hi i can't get the software to work if i set it as a ws2801 led strip how can i use it?

Can you have a look here: https://github.com/NimmLor/esp8266-fastled-iot-webserver/issues/123 ?

Hi Sadly i having the exact same issue. I want to use a Wemos D1 mini and some WS2801. I've already tried the solution provided in #123 but no success. Still gettings errors such as: [...]\Documents\Arduino\libraries\FastLED\src/chipsets.h:158:6: required from 'class LPD6803Controller<2, 66, RGB, 6>' [...]\Documents\Arduino\libraries\FastLED\src/FastLED.h:239:66: required from 'static CLEDController& CFastLED::addLeds(CRGB*, int, int) [with ESPIChipsets CHIPSET = WS2801; unsigned char DATA_PIN = 2; unsigned char CLOCK_PIN = 66]' [...]\Desktop\esp8266-fastled-iot-webserver\esp8266-fastled-iot-webserver.ino:692:68: required from here [...]\Documents\Arduino\libraries\FastLED\src/fastpin.h:210:24: error: static assertion failed: Invalid pin specified 210 | static_assert(validpin(), "Invalid pin specified");

Which version of the FastLED library are you using to compile this?

[seacred]

I'm using 3.4.0

Hi, Did you select the correct Board in the Arduino IDE? Which PIN config have you tried?

[seacred]

Hi, actually i've tried all Wemos variants in IDE. Pins i've tried are D1+D2 mentioned in #123 and many others but those where more like trial and error. The suggested solution in #123 sadly does not work for me with 3 different wemos d1 mini and FastLED 3.4.0.
