When upgrading to HS4 I decided to go with a completely fresh installation and recreated my setup. Now that I need to use my homemade remote (4 buttons which send MQTT topics/paylaods) I am trying to recreate the HomeSeer devices associated with the remote and am having difficulties. The topics are remote01/b01, remote01/b02, remote01/b03, and remote01/b04. Each are sending a payload of On and Off. I managed to get manually created virtual devices to send On and Off payloads, but they are not changing status when sent from outside HomeSeer and the Statistic MQTT Received & not Associated by mcsMQTT increments, and the Last Received Topic and Payload see valid. The Last Published shows the correct Topic but the Payload is 1 or 0, yet other devices subscribed to remote01/# receive On and Off payloads. I am running mcsMQTT v 5.5.2.0. I noticed checkboxes missing at the top of the Associations screen. (See image below) These are the first MQTT topics I have created under HS4 which are not Tasmota or WLED related.
I did some searching and downloaded the zip for v 5.7.9.0 but wasn't able to figure out how to use it to upgrade the plugin. I replaced the files I could find under the HS4 install, but couldn't find many, such as mcs.css, the html files, and more. I did over-write the dll and other files I found with the zip file contents. After rebooting HomeSeer mcsMQTT is still showing as v 5.5.2.0. I placed the zip file in the Updates4 folder as well and had no luck with that.
So my questions is: How do I update the plugin without being prompted in HomeSeer? Once I get it updated, if I still see the Associations as shown below, what might I need to change to repair this? After I am updated I will deal with recreating the Remote's devices in HomeSeer by deleting the current virtual device and features and try to have mcsMQTT create what is needed.
