Shelly I3 and 3.0

Upgraded from 2.3 to 3.0 and it is working with my Shelly 1 and 2.5 but my I3 stopped working.

Downgraded to 2.3 and they started to work again.

Obviously something was changed in version 2.4 that effect my I3 but not my Shelly 1 & 2.5.

Anybody else that can share their experience with I3 and the latest releases?

You could be on to something here. Previously, ShellyMQTT automatically subscribed to the individual topics for each device. This was fine in the early days when a setup consisted of a handful of devices, but this results in too many subscriptions when more devices are added.

The change in 0.2.4 was that ShellyMQTT stops subscribing to the topics automatically. Now, you just need to manually add the subscription "shellies/#" to the MQTTConnector broker device. What I would recommend you do is stop the ShellyMQTT plugin and then perform this manual subscription. The reason is that stopping will cause the old topics to be unsubscribed and it will make your subscription list cleaner.

Here is an example of my Broker subscriptions:

I have a single trigger that matches on "shellies" and ANY (the keyword, not the actual word "ANY") and this goes to the message type of "shellies". ALL of my devices use this same message type. You mentioned that your Shelly 1 and Shelly 2.5 still worked after the upgrade, so I'm guessing you might have manually subscribed to these devices.

Also, 0.2.4 and 0.2.5 have known bugs, so 0.3.0 or newer is what I recommend. Let me know if you have any other questions/issues.

Thanks,
Aaron
