Maybe you should help with documentation. Here you are sharing it in a location that is helpful on a 3rd party forum. But if more people helped with the public documentation it would improve for everyone.

It's located here and anyone can send pull requests.
- https://docs.fusionpbx.com

Raw files were used to make the above documentation.
- https://github.com/fusionpbx/fusionpbx-docs

I could certainly do the documentation as well but I'm busy adding fixing bugs, and making new features.

Mark, I just submitted my first-ever pull request on Git Hub with updates for fusionpbx-documents (98da135). I'm unsure if I did it correctly so any advice is appreciated.
