Help sending multiple publish (MQTT,Bridge)

[tolbier]

I am using the tuanpmt code & libraries to run an Arduino multi sensor to send mqtt messages through a ESP8266 (Bridge Mode)

The code below runs ok, but the trouble is that it only publishes the message ONCE....(after a certain amount of time, it debugs a "beacon timeout" and it starts to connect and publish again)

I would like to publish maybe each 10 seconds, and keeping alive the Wifi Connection
I don't know exactly how to call the publish method from the loop?, or to stablish a period of time to run this cycle until the arduino is reseted

Could you help me giving me some clues or help?

thanks in advance from Spain.

You can call this in void loop
if (wifiConnected){
mqtt.publish("/test01", "ASDFG 313");
delay(5000);
}

Thank you. I will try it.....
