Description

Not a bug but a feature...would be the likely response. I just want to go on record as saying I hate the new 2.10 gui menu. I have been using it for awhile trying to get used to it and it's just not happening. Not intuitive at all.

A lot of things are not intuitively applications or connectivity. They could be either, they could be both! The terminology is half the problem. There must be a better way to make things more logical to find in the menus.

end rant.

musterdman,

please don't use the ticket system to rant, it is un-productive and creates work that could be better spent developing. We put a lot of info out early on with then GUI and in particular with the layout. We asked for feedback and suggestions of different layouts. We also know that it will never be "right" for everyone as people's definition of intuitive is different. There are plenty of disagreements within the development team of what should go where and what should be called what. That is why we asked for feedback.

That is also why we posted information and put the effort in to enable freepbx_menu.conf that allows you to redefine the menu and names however you want, so it can be intuitive for you. So go seek that out and organize it how you see fit, and please use the forums for discussions and ranting, not the ticket system.
