MQTT settings not persistant

[peteshoard]

When changing MQTT settings in the GUI, I cannot get them to persist after a reboot, no error messages?

Any support you could provide on this issue would be most appreciated,

Oh thats a known problem in this version, but iirc it didnt show up the saved values in the webinterface but still uses the values for the mqtt connection. But at the moment this project is abandoned, i moved it to a regular tasmota display driver. Source will be available soon, but an alpha is already present if someone is willing to test.

Edit: You can check if it uses the correct mqtt values with the dumpcfg tool. http://yourip/dumpcfg?type=mqtt That shows you the current saved values for the mqtt. (will work with periph and network too)

I would love to be able to do this with Tasmota and am willing to test - not sure I have the skills to be able to build anything effectively though, so you need flash files shared.

Sadly I haven't been able to get this to work, looks like my MQTT settings are correct, other messages are getting through fine, but sadly this doesn't seem to want to play ball.

Thank you for the swift reply. Let me know if you want a willing guinea pig for tasmota versions, my interest is getting 3xMAX7219 (8x32) boards displaying multi timezones, temperature from other sensors and other messages.

I would like to help with the Tasmota implementation also. I download the the Tasmota source files with your library files do I have to do anything before compiling? Do I need to add anything to the user config file?

Thanks

Did you compile? Or did you get any errors?
