Hi David,

An 'Advanced Edit' button has been added to voicemenu's edit dialog,
to help directly edit a voicemenu ( without having to go all the way through 'Advanced mode -> file editor -> voicemenu' )

check out branches/2.0 - r3963 or above

No you can't... that's the problem. 

Maybe things have changed since the SVN version that I am using, but the version I have 

You cannot add "Ringing" as a action in a voice menu. 

You cannot add a muti-line response to a tone, for example... 
exten=i,1,Playback(pbx-invalid) 
exten=i,n,Goto(s,2) 

Nor add a DISA as a voice menu option. 

I cannot add a Context to a queue. 

I cannot specify an "application=" to music-on-hold 

I cannot specify "dtmfmode=" in a trunk, or "canreinvite", or "insecure=" or "qualify=" 

And there are probably more. If the GUI were complete then this wouldn't be a problem, but while it is I need to be able to make additions to the .conf files and not have them blown away if I ever (mistakenly) go through the gui again.

I would suggest that when editing a voice menu, make _sure_ that they are numbered. 

Besides, most things you can edit in a voice menu, you can add from the GUI

I also ran into this problem. In fact it is worse than Christoph suggests... if you go in and manually edit the extensions.conf file then none of the [custom] changes are reflected in the GUI and in fact can be *erased* by the gui. I opened a bug report related to this... http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=13530

Hi Brandon, 

I did not completely get the picture yet. What I want to call is not 
an IVR, it's arbitrary "applications" like maybe a "phrase recording" 
menu. 

How would you "abuse" the gui to do things like that ? Should I define 
"IVR"s for these needs and do custom steps within the IVR definition ? 

Are there better/other alternatives in Gui 2.0 ? 

Greetings 
Christoph
