Visual Phonebook sync to Open79XX XML phonebook database

Hi

We purchased FOP2 yesterday and found it excellent so far.

Currently we use the excellent Open79XX phonebook database for XML phonebooks for our Cisco phones. However this does not provide us an easy to use pc based browser or ability to dial from computers.

Could Fop2 be configured to use the database from Open79XX instead of it's own?
The fields are different however and can store more information in the Open79XX setup.

Also the contacts are seperated into groups in Open79XX. We would be OK if we did not see the groups in FOP2.
Effectively we want to add contacts into the Open79XX setup and have FOP2 pick them up.

I've can send a screenshot of fields in the SQL DB for Open79XX if it helps.

Regards

  • Hi,

    If your current open79xx database is stored in mysql, the fop2 phonebook code could be changed to access it. It should not take much effort to do so, the phonebook uses a grid component that is mostly automatic. You wil also need to modify the vphonebook.php script to search on the new db for the dial box.

    If you want us to do the work you can purchase support from www.fop2.com/buy.php to do the implementation, or you might want to tackle it yourself.

    The Open79XX is using SQL. I'll look into this further over then next week or so. Really appreciate the reply and thex excellent product.
