Issues with Time Conditions and Announcements

I have been experimenting with FreePBX for a while now, but there is one thing that just doesn’t seem to work, namely a proper greeting.

My intention is that when someone calls my number, he gets a greeting in the form of “good morning / good afternoon / good evening / good night, welcome to family x”.

I thought I could do this by recording 5 “system recordings”:

  • Good morning
  • Good afternoon
  • Good evening
  • Good night
  • Welcome to family x

Then link these 5 system recordings to 5 announcements with the same name. For Good morning / Good afternoon / Good evening / Good night, the recording “Welcome to family x” is then listed under “destination”.

Then I created Time groups and connected them to Time Conditions:

  • 7am ​​till 11.59am : good morning
  • 12am till 4:59pm : good afternoon
  • 5pm till 9:59pm : good evening
  • 10pm till 6:59am : good night

The inbound route now says “Time Condition : good morning”. If that is correct, play “good morning”, followed by “welcome to family x”. If that time condition fails : play “good afternoon” etc.

What do I do wrong? When I call the DID I don’t get any announcement, just my extension that rings…

I’ve made a lot of screenshots, and uploaded them to my Google photos : https://photos.app.goo.gl/Ad9v2HnM5ZqAd3wb7

Someone that can help me out with this?

Does your inbound route for that DID point to the time condition?

It does point to that time condition. When I change it to eg an extension, it works fine.
