What do you guys use for a internal directory? I want something to where users can scroll through on their phone, or possibly the UCP. The only directory module I see is a voice directory, and I don’t want that. Any thoughts on what you guys do would be helpful. We are on the latest freepbx and use yealink t46s phones.
I have a script that creates an XML directory from the SQL database. This script is then configured on the phone so you get a scrolling directory on the phone. When you add, delete or modify extensions, you need to re-run the script. Just let me know if you would be interested.
We use Yealink T46G’s. I barely use the directory, per se, and instead “dial by name”. It works very well, and I don’t have to remember the users’ extensions.
I also have a little php script which will create the XML phonebook for Yealink phones that is pretty handy.
I think to make the dial by name work, I had to set up super_search.xml as well as Phonebook.xml
