Just to confirm I have highlighted in Red what you need to change to make
an https site work with test.mosquitto.org I couldn't get the colouring to
work properly above.......
mqtt_port = 8081 instead of 8080
mqtt_ssl = 1 (instead of 0)
Let me know how you get on - if necessary I can spin up a Pi rig for you to
use as a test - but the test.mosquitto.org should work without problems -
certainly works for me - I have just tested it under an https website
request.
Let me know either way.
All the best,
Dave.
Skin.conf
# MQTT Defaults
mqtt_enabled = 1
mqtt_host = "test.mosquitto.org"
mqtt_port = 8081
mqtt_ssl = 1
mqtt_topic = "weather/41south/#"
disconnect_live_website_visitor = 1800000
