[Asterisk-Users] GotoIfTime help

[Philipp von Klitzing]

Hi!

gotoif usually takes a priority as label, not an extension! See below.
Never tried if you can also use the notation "context,extension,priority"
instead of just "priority", but it might work. Just try it.

exten => 111,1,GotoIfTime(8:00-14:00|*|*|1-12?4:2)
exten => 111,2,Dial(${Person1})
exten => 111,3,Dial(Hangup)
exten => 111,4,Goto(default,333,1)

exten => 333,1,Dial(${Person2})
exten => 333,2,Dial(Hangup)

Note: If you use goto() or gotoif() with just one label then you'll see a 
warning in /var/log/asterisk/messages about the 2nd label missing. That's 
why I prefer to always specify both labels.

Cheers, Philipp
