But nothing is discovery in HomeAssistant. I have reset docker, its using the same network as the host? I have re-installed mosquito

The mosquitto addon is configured through the user interface, delete the mqtt yaml config and follow the addon documentation.

Also discovery requires your devices to publish to the homeassistant discovery topic.

Shelly’s don’t do this. You will have to manually configure them in yaml.

Tasmota does. Just setOption19 = 1

If you want your shellies to be auto-discovered, run the shellies discovery script :

For your zigbee2mqtt devices : in the zigbee2mqtt configuration.yaml set homeassistant: true

And as tom_l said : for tasmota, enter setoption19 1 in the tasmota console.

took a night away from the keyboard. Cleared the lot and started again and its worked this time.

Thanks for the speedy help.
