    An esp8266ap as SoftAP was connected but Captive portal does not start.

    Captive portal detection could not be trapped. It is necessary to disconnect and reset ESP8266 to clear memorized connection data in ESP8266. Also, It may be displayed on the smartphone if the connection information of esp8266ap is wrong. In that case, delete the connection information of esp8266ap memorized by the smartphone once.

    To avoid this problem, try changing the channel.

    ESP32 hardware equips only one channel for WiFi signal to carry. At the AP_STA mode, if ESP32 as an AP will connect to another AP on another channel while maintaining the connection with the station, the channel switching will occur and the station may be disconnected. But it may not be just a matter of channel switching causes ESP8266 has the same constraints too. It may be a problem with AutoConnect or the arduino core or SDK issue. Unfortunately, I have not found a solution yet. However, I am continuing trial and error to solve this problem and will resolve in due course.

    Maybe it is successfully connected at the first WiFi.begin. ESP8266 remembers the last SSID successfully connected and will use at the next. It means SoftAP will only start up when the first WiFi.begin() fails.

    The saved SSID would be cleared by WiFi.disconnect() with WIFI_STA mode. If you do not want automatic reconnection, you can erase the memorized SSID with the following simple sketch.

    AutoConnect behaves not stable with my sketch yet.

    If AutoConnect behavior is not stable with your sketch, you can try the following measures.

    1. Change WiFi channel

    -

    Both ESP8266 and ESP32 can only work on one channel at any given moment. This will cause your station to lose connectivity on the channel hosting the captive portal. If the channel of the AP which you want to connect is different from the SoftAP channel, the operation of the captive portal will not respond with the screen of the AutoConnect connection attempt remains displayed. In such a case, please try the AutoConnectConfig to match the channel to the access point.

You can specify the direction to arrange the radio buttons as AutoConnectRadio vertically or horizontally. This basic layout depends on the CSS of the AutoConnect menu so you can not change drastically. Form and AutoConnectElements \u00b6 All AutoConnectElements placed on custom web pages will be contained into one form. Its form is fixed and created by AutoConnect. The form value (usually the text or checkbox you entered) is sent by AutoConnectSubmit using the POST method with HTTP. The post method sends the actual form data which is a query string whose contents are the name and value of AutoConnectElements. You can retrieve the value for the parameter with the sketch from the query string with ESP8266WebServer::arg function or PageArgument class of the AutoConnect::on handler when the form is submitted. AutoConnectElement - A basic class of elements \u00b6 AutoConnectElement is a base class for other element classes and has common attributes for all elements. It can also be used as a variant of each element. The following items are attributes that AutoConnectElement has and are common to other elements. Sample AutoConnectElement element(\"element\", \"
    \"); On the page: Constructor \u00b6 AutoConnectElement( const char * name, const char * value) name \u00b6 Each element has a name. The name is the String data type. You can identify each element by the name to access it with sketches. value \u00b6 The value is the string which is a source to generate an HTML code. Characteristics of Value vary depending on the element. The value of AutoConnectElement is native HTML code. A string of value is output as HTML as it is. type \u00b6 The type indicates the type of the element and represented as the ACElement_t enumeration type in the sketch. Since AutoConnectElement also acts as a variant of other elements, it can be applied to handle elements collectively. At that time, the type can be referred to by the typeOf() function. The following example changes the font color of all AutoConnectText elements of a custom Web page to gray. AutoConnectAux customPage; AutoConnectElementVT & elements = customPage.getElements(); for (AutoConnectElement & elm : elements) { if (elm.typeOf() == AC_Text) { AutoConnectText & text = reinterpret_cast < AutoConnectText &> (elm); text.style = \"color:gray;\" ; } } The enumerators for ACElement_t are as follows: AutoConnectButton: AC_Button AutoConnectCheckbox: AC_Checkbox AutoConnectElement: AC_Element AutoConnectInput: AC_Input AutoConnectRadio: AC_Radio AutoConnectSelect: AC_Select AutoConnectSubmit: AC_Submit AutoConnectText: AC_Text Uninitialized element: AC_Unknown Furthermore, to convert an entity that is not an AutoConnectElement to its native type, you must re-interpret that type with c++. AutoConnectButton \u00b6 AutoConnectButton generates an HTML < button type = \"button\" > tag and locates a clickable button to a custom Web page. Currently AutoConnectButton corresponds only to name, value, an onclick attribute of HTML button tag. An onclick attribute is generated from an action member variable of the AutoConnectButton, which is mostly used with a JavaScript to activate a script. Sample AutoConnectButton button(\"button\", \"OK\", \"myFunction()\"); On the page: Constructor \u00b6 AutoConnectButton( const char * name, const char * value, const String & action) name \u00b6 It is the name of the AutoConnectButton element and matches the name attribute of the button tag. It also becomes the parameter name of the query string when submitted. value \u00b6 It becomes a value of the value attribute of an HTML button tag. action \u00b6 action is String data type and is an onclick attribute fire on a mouse click on the element. It is mostly used with a JavaScript to activate a script. 1 For example, the following code defines a custom Web page that copies a content of Text1 to Text2 by clicking Button . const char * scCopyText = R\"( )\" ; ACInput(Text1, \"Text1\" ); ACInput(Text2, \"Text2\" ); ACButton(Button, \"COPY\" , \"CopyText()\" ); ACElement(TextCopy, scCopyText); AutoConnectCheckbox \u00b6 AutoConnectCheckbox generates an HTML < input type = \"checkbox\" > tag and a < label > tag. It places horizontally on a custom Web page by default. Sample AutoConnectCheckbox checkbox(\"checkbox\", \"uniqueapid\", \"Use APID unique\", false); On the page: Constructor \u00b6 AutoConnectCheckbox( const char * name, const char * value, const char * label, const bool checked) name \u00b6 It is the name of the AutoConnectCheckbox element and matches the name attribute of the input tag. It also becomes the parameter name of the query string when submitted. value \u00b6 It becomes a value of the value attribute of an HTML < input type = \"checkbox\" > tag. label \u00b6 A label is an optional string. A label is always arranged on the right side of the checkbox. Specification of a label will generate an HTML
