ROLL CALL!

Okay everyone. We've reached the 1 month soak and smoke test. PlugPBX with Flashybrid passed with flying colors on one of the worst SD cards I could possibly run it on.

Its summer soon, and I have lots of house and yard work backlogged. I'd love to spend all my free time building this, but the better half would not see eye to eye Wink

That being said, How about some help? I have some tasks some people can help me out with. Volunteers needed!

1) Build a PHP based 'menu' page to replace the static page PlugPBX presents. This includes sensing the 'URL' used to access the page so links can reformat if you hit it with the PlugPBX domain or a PlugPBX.local hostname if you used AutoConf addresses - or if you used a FQDN like PlugPBX.your.name.here.com etc. This also applies to webmin links that required the https://PlugPBX:10000 style links.  

Further on this task, I'd like to see a single two frame design. Upper Frame has links to the major components, perhaps time/date information and lower frame has a simple splash page, and any of the selected components. Ie Upper frame contents link to FreePBX, Webmin, Phpsysinfo, Flash Operator Panel and Voicemail Interface. Each of those would pop in the lower frame.

2) The fh-sync script used by flashybrid needs to be written to provide better HTML output of its status, along with more verbose output. This would include perhaps exploring using sudo to run this script cleanly via a webpage click.

3) Icons! Better graphics for #1 and #2 above. I suck at graphics. Any takers?


Plan is to get those core items resolved, and then roll a similar system as before, NO swap disk, smaller size (perhaps even a 2 gig image instead of 4 to start with) to cleanly flash on SD media (and yes, undersized abit to fit on all variant types of media cards)


Anyone interested? Worse case I do it all myself, but I'll be slower at it all of course. I can do #2, #1 and #3 i'd love some help with. Just go ahead, make it and post it / mail it if interested.

I would be happy to help out with the icons, I'm not a graphic genius but I'm sure I could come up with something decent with the help of some high-res freeware icons. Just let me know exactly what you are looking for.

As for the other 2 tasks, I am not 100% up to speed on linux yet.

Woot, I am happy to help out with 1), bit of learning for me but it would be great to be of service! I was also thinking of adding a button to switch it to/from DHCP/Static IP. I have a SPA922 and it doesn't like using FQDNs, maybe because my router doesn't resolve it for it.

I've added tab buttons at the top, split frame, host sensing to links. Do you want to hide certain options if you come from certain addresses? I'll just make it look a bit better (add space for icons etc) then its ready for submission! Woot. Where to upload to?

Sorry, I may have spoken a little too soon, I'm just in the middle of renovating my kitchen, so things are a little hectic around here at the moment.
