    I am trying to set up an option in my ivr that if pressed it will send a fax to the person calling from a fax machine

    I installed the fax add-on

    That is not currently possible through VitalPBX interface, however, you may use the custom context add-on to add your own dialplan and send a fax when an IVR option is pressed.

    I installed the custom context add-on but I don’t see the option to create my own dial plan

    Thanks

    What the “custom contexts”  add-ons do, is to connect your custom dial plan with VitalPBX GUI.

    for example, you may create a file named “extensions__60-1-custom.conf” under “/etc/asterisk/ombutel” path, and add the following dial-plan:

    [custom-dialplan]
    exten => s,1,NoOP(Dummy DialPlan)
     same => n,Playback(vm-welcome)
     same => n,Hangup()

    So, how you may execute this custom context on VitalPBX?

    Easy, using the custom contexts add-on. With the custom contexts add-on, you may use your custom contexts as VitalPBX destinations, also, in the custom add-ons, you may configure a destination that you may use to transfer the call to another VitalPBX context after executing the custom context.
