Dialplan Injection

This unofficial FreePBX module allows you to create short custom dial plan fragments. While such fragments can also be added to extensions-custom.conf, the advantage of creating them in this module is that the resulting dial plan fragment can be directly selected as a destination in modules that use destinations. Optionally, the dial plan fragment can also be accessed directly by calling an extension number. Just about anything that could be put into extensions_custom.conf can be placed in a Dialplan Injection.

This is a very good module.

Install Dialplan Injection

1. Download from here to your computer. DO NOT decompress.

enjoy
