Hi, does anyone knows how to create time based rules directly in extensions.conf ?
Can you write a practical example to see the correct syntax please ?
I am using AsteriskNow 1.02 and the “time based rules” voice is not into the web interface menu…
Thanks!
Not sure if this is what you are looling for, but I use this to send to an after hours queue/extension (ext. 1490) after hours, on weekends, or on a holiday. If there’s no match on the time it just continues on to the normal queue. You can easlily edit it to go on different days, to other contexts, extensions, etc. If anyone else uses this for the holidays, I think the only one you may have to adjust from time to time is the Veternas Day entry…
