Call forwarding unconditionally

Mmm… think I have overlooked something… You want CFU and CFB. That means you have to set the values of your wanted forward number and check before sending a call to an account if there is a forward on that account. To set the forward I use: exten => _21.,1,Answer() same => n,Set(DB(CFIM/${CALLERID(NUM)})=${EXTEN:4}) same => n,Playback(vm-saved) same => n,SayDigits(${EXTEN:4}) same => n,Hangup() The user calls 21forwardnumber. ie 211234567890, the forward number is 1234567890 Then I hav…

Hi Meightee,

I’m giving the config you shared here a go, but I’m coming across errors with the macro part? Was this designed for a specific use? I’m just trying to get a simple unconditional call forward working so users can turn it on and off at will, which I believe will solve this without needing to go any further?

I’m using Asterisk v13.19.0 if this helps.

Many thanks,

Richard
