Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/tzapu/WiFiManager/issues/1522

Hardware: ESP8266 NodeMcu ESP-12E Development Board

Core Version: From - PlatformIO tzapu/WiFiManager@^0.16.0

PlatformIO won't let me select any of the much later beta versions.

My device always shows the below serial output and has never let me connect to the AP using my phone. It always just connects to the WLAN AP that I was previously using before I added in WIFIMANAGER to my existing code.

I would have expected that the resetSetttings() ought have forced the AP pop up every time.

I've never told WIFIMANAGER my SSID and password but I still get a connection.

I've just found that I can use the BASIC sketch in the Arduino IDE and the resetSetttings() command does clear the LAN information. If I don't enter the WIFI info and download my own project via PLATFORMIO then the settings have indeed been cleared and I get a new AP. However, the resetSetttings() in my own code still doesn't clear the settings.

Module: ESP8266 NodeMcu ESP-12E Development Board

Sketch

#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <WiFiManager.h>

void setup()

WiFiManager wifiManager;
wifiManager.resetSettings();
wifiManager.autoConnect("AutoConnectAP", "Nixie");

#END


Here's my platformio.ini -

[env:nodemcuv2]
platform = espressif8266
board = nodemcuv2
framework = arduino
upload_port = COM[4]
build_flags = 
	-D_BSD_SOURCE
lib_deps = 
	RTClib
	adafruit/Adafruit BusIO@^1.11.3
	tzapu/WiFiManager@^0.16.0
lib_ignore = TinyWireM

### Debug Messages

*WM: settings invalidated
*WM: THIS MAY CAUSE AP NOT TO START UP PROPERLY. YOU NEED TO COMMENT IT OUT AFTER ERASING THE DATA.
*WM:

I didn't actually do that. Are you referring the need to add a beta version ? I've just got tzapu/WiFiManager@^0.16.0 listed in mine. Please do you have a better lib dep entry to replace that one ? Thanks.
