Roderick, yes, you can use Goto or GotoIf to skip entire sections of dialplan logic. You either need to number your priorities fully or use labels with your n's if you choose to use n priorities. exten => s,1, exten => s,2,Goto(s,4) exten => s,3, exten => s,4, OR exten => s,1 exten => s,n,Goto(s,superjump) exten => s,n exten => s,n(superjump), I believe that's how it works, but it's from memory, so might not be quite right.
