Several discrepancies with barge/whisper in the docs. I am running v17. I found GitHub references to adding it but glancing through the extension_additional.conf and other files it appears this feature is now built in. However in some code I see 555 and other places I see 556. Neither seem to work. If ext 1234 is on a call and from another phone I dial 5551234 I should hear the conversation correct? I hear nothing and eventually I hear an error message. The GitHub patch refers to dialing 4 for Listen, press 5 for Whisper, or 6 for Barge. When do you dial that digit of choice?
Bottom line is how do I get this working? I need the receptionist to be able to barge in on a call and let the employee know the boss is calling and he needs to hang up now! and take his call.
Thank you! This looks exactly like what I need. However I tried it on my v16 system before installing at a client and get an error. It might be due to v16 instead of v17 that is at the client?
Yes, I would need to make modifications to push it back to older versions. I just haven’t done that part yet. I’m hoping to do that in the next week or so.
