    When listening to voicemail messages, is there a way to auto jump ahead to the next message in the mailbox after deleting a message?

    Ex: You have 3 messages. Press 1 for new messages. Listen to 1st message. Press 7 to delete it. Immediately jump to message 2 and play, etc.

    Right now, you get the prompt Press 4 for previous message, Press 6 for next message. Want to skip that and just move to the next message.

    You can press keys at any time in Voicemail.
    Just press 6 (next message) right after 7 (delete) and you will immediately hear the next message. You never have to listen to the announcement you can press keys like crazy.
    I think pressing 1 sometimes will skip certain announcements as well.

    Thanks @mo10. Looking for the way to auto skip to next message upon delete. Have been in other Asterisk PBXes where this is implemented.

    See: https://www.voip-info.org/asterisk-config-voicemailconf/

    Looking to do this:

    nextaftercmd

    If set to “yes,” after deleting a voicemail message, the system will automatically play the next message.

    How can this set set/adjusted in VitalPBX that will not break on next update?

    This feature can be added on future versions of VitalPBX, if you would like to add manually you can do it create a file under “/etc/asterisk/ombutel/” named as “voicemail__20-general-custom.conf” with the following content:

    [general](+)
    nextaftercmd=yes
