Elegoo ESP32 with Tasmota32 don´t show Menu to switch to Generic 18

[Inxession]

Hello Folks,

i have bought an SET of 3 ESP32 from Amazon.
This Ones ... https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0D8T5XD3P?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

After flashing Tasmota32 with the Web Flasher (Chrome), the WebIF don´t show me the Menu where i can switch the Mode to Generic 18.

I want to use it to read electricity meters (Eltako S0), but I don't have the option to import the finished script template. The search function says I have to set it to Generic 18 first, but the menu doesn't appear either.

Version Release 15.0.1 - tasmota32.bin via Web Flasher.

Thanks for your Help

Forget about Generic (18) when it is ESP32, the standard Tasmota builds for ESP32 will by default start in what is functionally equivalent, ESP32-DevKit (1)

Instead of saying what it does not show you, better say what web UI you do see.

Still, if you want to use the Smart Meter Interface for electricity meters, you need to use a build with the Scripting Language feature, which is not included in regular precompiled binaries.

Still, there exist an "unofficial" scripter development build you can upgrade to, here:
https://github.com/tasmota/install/tree/firmware/firmware/unofficial
While this will normally work fine, using the daily development builds does occasionally have something "needing to be fixed".

This is the same as you can find in the Tasmota Web Installer if you scroll down, but you can also just do a regular upgrade, assuming that you do have the normal Tasmota web UI.
