I am about to release FOP 2.30 in beta. It has big improvements on the GUI, using Twitter Bootstrap 3.0 as a CSS Framework.

Here is a short video showcasing some of them:

This new version will not work with Internet Explorer less than version 10, but I think it is a small price to pay for the improvements on the user interface in general. As always I recommend to use Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox anyways.

It has some new plugins that are exclusive for this version (queue stats, change password), and improves existing plugins by adding some real time charts (busy call counter, queued calls counter).

It also has a nicer UI for the phonebook.

It can also be customized via CSS using themes. That means that you do not have to edit core .css files to change styles. I will work on adding at least one theme besides the default one.

If you are interested in trying the beta, let me know. As the changes are big, you might expect some glitches or problems.

Here are the tarballs for 2.30.00 beta:

To upgrade a running version, as always, download, extract and run "make".

As it is a beta, it is subject to changes, perhaps big. It might have bugs although I made my best efforts on making a smooth upgrade experience.

It was not tested with Internet Explorer less than version 10. Even with Internet Explorer 10 there are some visual things that I do not like much (scrollbars all over the place). I have not tried it with Windows 10 nor the new Edge browser. Main development is done using Google Chrome, and tests performed with Mozilla Firefox and Safari.

You can create your own themes by editing /var/www/html/fop2/css/custom_theme/theme.css , there is one included but file is renamed so it does not get loaded. This means that you should be able to create custom looks, and change logos from that file only. And it won't get overwritten on future upgrades.

There are new plugins that works exclusively with this version:

Queue Stats: it shows a small widget per queue with basic queue statistics as informed by Asterisk, showing SLA, Answered Calls, Abandoned Calls, and Hold Time. If you have the "resetstats" permission, (or "all"), you will have the option to RESET stats to zero from the widget.

Change Password: adds a menu for users to change their password. Works only if you use the FOP2 Manager for managing users.

Mini Browser: adds a widget with a web page embedded inside. If you configure automatic popups, they will be launched inside that widget, and not in a separate TAB. It is limited by browser security, some pages will NOT load as they do not like to exists inside an iframe.

There are some updated plugins with special features for the new 2.30 client:

Busy Counter: displays a 5 minute real time graph of line usage
Queued Calls Counter: displays a 5 minute real time graph of waiting calls

Any feedback is appreciated.

thanks, It is up and running now, you can always try mirrors like download2.fop2.com or download3.fop2.com

My guess is that Default groups in FOP2 Manager tables are not updated and you have group restrictions for a user (you have clicked All Buttons, or All Queues for that user in the Users tab). Try running this script:

php -f /var/www/html/fop2/admin/update_conf.php 1

And then restart FOP2:

service fop2 restart

Let me know if that makes a difference or not.. Best regards,

What field? My suggestion is to use google chrome, right click on the element you want to change and select inspect element, then you will see the element id and classes it has assigned, with that information you can copy the css/theme/theme.css over css/custom_theme/theme.css and then modify the later to your hearts content.

Yes, it is possible to make a call, similar to the virtual phonebook of previous versions. click on the telephone icon for click to dial on any given contact.

Maybe you did not upgrade to 2.30 final?
