This version is now the official V3 release - 20th November 2017 - it should appear via the plugin update check.
This release (Version 3.0.18) has the following changes:
- New Feature - Disable Alexa (by Variable) - see WIKI.
- Bug Fixes - Bug fixes around host address, port management and discovery. Code tidy-up.
- Documentation - Updated documentation and moved to Wiki. Change information now in Wiki.
A couple of points to note:
- Port Address Change - if the port address is changed for an Alexa-hue Bridge, you must do another discovery as otherwise Alexa will continue to send feedback to the port she previously made a note off. If a discovery isn't done, then the plugin will never receive the Alexa request and Alexa will say "the device is not responding".
- Forget Devices - this cannot now be done from the iOS App. So the only way to do this is by logging on to your Alexa account at https://alexa.amazon.com or https://alexa.amazon.co.uk etc.
From the left hand window, navigate to Smart Home and then Devices. Scroll to the bottom of the devices window and do a Forget All.
You must do a Forget Devices if you migrate from Version 2 to Version 3 and then do a re-discovery - see the migration topic in the Wiki.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank my BETA testers who provided invaluable feedback for this new version - thanks all for your efforts.
