Device with only string payload does not show string anymore since 5.7.0.0

[Guest]

Hi Michael, here are some pictures.

Will try to update to the very latest version of mcsmqtt. all my devices that showed string have been affected by this.

edit 5.7.0.5 shows the same bahavior


edit2: going back to 5.6.3 ''resolved'' the issue

I see the issue and attached an update. I'm at airport waiting to board so no time to test.

wow thanks Michael. Works perfect with 5.7.0.5

As I was testing on the airplane it also has issues. I will upload next when I get internet again. This made the flight seem shorter eith my mind occupied with testing.

Haha, I am happy to hear this issue was a useful distraction on your flight

Updates that property handle text, VSP, and numbers with and without expressions is at http://mcsSprinklers.com/HSPI_mcsMQTT_5_7_0_7.zip (HS4) and http://mcsSprinklers.com/mcsMQTT_5_7_0_7.zip.

Dumb question - How do I update HS4 with this latest zip?

Look at the end of post #4 at https://forums.homeseer.com/forum/li...h-wled-devices. There are other descriptions that you can find by searching for updater_override.json for HS4 plugins on the message board in case this one is not clear.
