Customizing snom 821 phone settings

[Alex Sergeev]

Good day!

 

We have problem with snom 821.

How to configure customizing snom 821 phone settings?

I try to put snom_821_custom.xml in HTML folder. But it did not help.

In Web page control -> Templates I can not find snom_821.xml.

 

PBXnSIP 4.2.0.3981 (CentOS).

There were few missing things regarding 821 in 3981. We have fixed them in the yet to be released version.

 

But you can fix it live now. That's the power of our PBX :-)

 

• 
   
  
• Go to the Admin->Web Page Control->Templates page.
  
• Select reg_texts.htm
  
• Add <option>snom_821.xml</option> and after <option>snom_820.xml</option>
  
• Then add <option>snom_820_phone.xml</option> after <option>snom_3xx_phone.xml</option>
  
• Save the file
  

 

Now you should be able to modify the template for snom 821. Note that it is mostly based on the 820.

When I select a file, I see a blank field for input. And so with any file.

 

How am I supposed to know where to add?:

 

<option>snom_821.xml</option> and after <option>snom_820.xml</option>

<option>snom_821.xml</option> and after <option>snom_820.xml</option>

We have some issues on some browsers. Try selecting some other file and then come back reg_texts.htm. We have tested on IE, Chrome & Firefox (although I would not use FF for larger files)

Good day!

 

I did as you wrote.

 

As a result, I have a limited list of files for editing on the Web Page Control. The proposed list does not include the file reg_texts.htm. And while selecting any file is not displayed input box.

 

I do not have fresh backup-file. How to recover?!?!

[pbx support]

I did understand the question/concern completely.

Here are some inputs:

- Do not use Firefox if want to customize the pages.

- Every page has a "Click here to restore the default". So you can restore every page that are listed

- All modified pages are saved under '<pbx wodking dir>/webpages' folder

[Alex Sergeev]

Yes, I found in folder webpages xml-file, which is a modified reg_texts.htm file. I deleted it. But the problem remains. Probably need to reboot pbxnsip. I'll do it at night and report the result.

 

By the way:

 

1. After manipulation of reg_texts.htm file I do not see "Click here to restore the default".

 

2. I've tested many browsers and for me the best was the Firefox (I can change information on the Web Page Control).

[Vodia PBX]

Well, dont clear the input and then hit the "save" button. This tells the PBX to have the file with an empty input. You should use the "restore default" option.

[Alex Sergeev]

Ok.

 

I restore reg_texts.htm.

 

Firefox displays the file reg_texts is not until the end. The latest version Chrome is better.

 

Now I think that I need to add to reg_texts only:

<option>snom_821.xml</option>

And then in html folder make snom_821.xml file. Am I right?

[pbx support]

Go back to the first reply for this post. You do not need to add any files to 'html' folder. Those files are already there in the PBX. Only the option to select from the drop-down was missing.

[Alex Sergeev]

Thank you!

 

Can you tell what is necessary to make settings in IE browser to the file contents displayed on the Web Page Control?

[pbx support]

I have seen IE work sometimes (even though the PBX was sending the whole file back). I would spend too much time trying to figure out on IE. I would just use Chrome.
