Line Key LABELS

Hi guys,

Using the the 64 bit version of FreePBX, Stable-5.211.65-13 (FreePBX 2.11, Linux 6.5 and Asterisk 11) with Digium Phones (D70s, D50s and D40s)

I’d like to display some specific words (names or labels) for the line key.

Right now it displays the internal extension.

We only use the line keys for internal extensions.

But some phones have several extensions, mainly because they want different CIDs.

So basically, for each required CID, the phone has an extension.

The extension numbers don’t mean much, that’s why I would rather have a label to identify the CID.

Any way to do that? It’d be awesome.

The line key labels are controlled by the line_label option for type=line in res_digium_phone. Modification of line labels is handled on the Extension module of FreePBX in the Digium Phones sub-section.

That’s exactly what I wanted to do!

Thanks Malcolm D !!!
