Keith, Sorry for the confusion. Lemme try to explain from a different angle. WaitExten takes user input and tries to match it with another extension. The moment it finds a match it sends the caller to that extension. In the GUI, the only extensions that are created using the WaitExten action are the 0-9, etc etc. Which is why I stated that its only configured to recognize 1 digit because the only extensions that WaitExten is tryin to match against are the 0-9 extensions. You can hand edit extensions.conf if you'd like. Start off with trying to change one of the 'one digit' extensions to a 4 digit exten...(so take extension 4 and make it 4444). Play around from there and I'm sure you'll get the hang of it.

I looked at the WaitExten command syntax and it has a time parameter (which I set to 15 seconds) and an option for music on hold but nothing for the number of digits. I don't mind editing the extensions.conf file manually if need be but I'm unsure of what needs to be changed. I tried setting autofallthrough=no but that didn't help. --- On Mon, 3/9/09, Ryan Brindley <[email protected]> wrote: > From: Ryan Brindley <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [asterisk-gui] Problem With VoiceMenus > To: [email protected], "Asterisk GUI project discussion" > <[email protected]> > Date: Monday, March 9, 2009, 11:04 PM > Keith, > WaitExten is the correct application to use, but the GUI > only configures it to recognize the first digit.
