Generic MQTT Thing throws warning in logs

Setup, Configuration and Use Items & Sitemaps

There are (at least) two possible Thing structures

Yours -

Bridge mqtt:broker:pibroker ... {
   Thing topic sonoff11 ... {
   Channels:
      Type switch ...
   }

Your topics implicitly “belong” to that broker Bridge by being nested in it’s curly brackets.

But these topic things

Thing mqtt:topic:flomqtt:MQTT_FSD_A  "FSD 'A'" (mqtt:broker:flomqtt) {
Channels:
    Type switch : ...
     }

This is not nested in the broker Bridge definition, it stands alone. (maybe the broker is defined in a different file, for example)
So it has to describe which broker it belongs to (you’re allowed more than one)
