OK, complete MQTT noob here.
I’ve watched most of Dr.Zzs videos as well as others, I’ve read extensively (as is reasonably possible) on the subject, but…
My Tasmotised Sonoffs (1 POW and 2 Basics) won’t work!
They are recognised and listed on TasmoAdmin. If I press the onboard button they switch on and off; but I am obviously failing in configuring them for MQTT!
Anyone with a Step-by-step Dummies/Idiot guide to setup, please? I mean really for a dummy - much of what I’ve read is gobbledygook to me!
View the console of one of the sonoffs. Does it say comething like; unable to connect to MQTT server?

Hi! Thanks for responding! I will check when I get home this evening.
Also, take a look at this new utility. It can help you see what is going on with your MQTT server.

make sure that your sonoff devices are pointing to the MQTT broker, and using the correct MQTT topic. I would also download a piece of software called MQTT.FX to see if the the devices are sending the proper command topics to your broker and HA
