Message delay?

Ahh, okay, got it, need to upgrade the firmware, thx.

It doesnā€™t just help on reliability of the ESP modules, when you restart the server for any reason, all your mqtt devices update to the previous states in Openhab as well.

But the main advantage is that a non responding ESP device generally catches up within a second or two.

Sounds good ā€¦ upgraded to the latest stable firmware a minute ago (build 120) but still donā€™t have that option available. Which firmware version are you running?

Ah I am on build 147.

Ahhh ā€¦ okay, upgraded to RC 147, option is available now. Thanks a lot.
Sadly the developer stopped working on that firmware, hopefully someone will take over ā€¦

That has already happened. Project is starting to move againā€¦ Have a look at the Git.

Glad is has been rescued. There is good firmware out there, but ESPEasy is my favourite. (Though I contributed to the SonoffSC firmware by tinkerman recently). I really like the ease of use, the rules and the fact that it does other communication as well as MQTT.

Here is the latest compiled version

Hadnā€™t looked into the forum for a while, found the post that someone has taken over, GREAT NEWS.

Did you manage to get MQTT working with that firmware version?
I could not ā€¦ reverting to RC 147 and itā€™s working fine again.
