Continuing the discussion from #error "Please specify your BLYNK_TEMPLATE_ID and BLYNK_DEVICE_NAME" Blynk 2.0:
Appending this to this post since the topic is similar. When I attempt to compile my program on Sparkfun ESP32 Thing, I am getting the same error “Please specify your BLYNK_TEMPLATE_ID and BLYNK_TEMPLATE_NAME”. I am attaching code and also a copy of the compiler error message. I am using BLYNK library 1.3.2. The TEMPLATE ID and NAME define lines are at the start of the code (actual ID/name is omitted), and there is no confusion about DEVICE NAME and TEMPLATE NAME, as described by Pete. I loaded this code successfully previously, but now when I return to it to tweak it, it wont compile. Im wondering if there is a conflict from an updated version of a library or firmware or something. Thanks for help.
