MQTT remains connecting while settings have been changed

I do not have a good indication if the node is properly disconnecting and trying to reconnect

when you deploy a change to a node, it is destroyed and re-created.

@bakman2

I am trying to connect, but the mqtt node keeps its label as "connecting" and whatever settings I change it remains connecting

Then you either dont have the settings correct or it is unreachable.

Are you using latest Node-RED?

You can also try dynamic connection and disconnect actions while testing. Demo here: Dynamic MQTT node's "actions->connect" guidance needed - #2 by Steve-Mcl
