This page contains instructions on how to navigate through VoipNow's interface, detailing the menu and the controls available.

Overview

The interface has the same appearance no matter if you are an administrator or a regular user. If some options are not displayed, it is because you do not have access to them yet.

Any removal operation comes with a confirmation box, which allows you to cancel your action. You can keep track of your whereabouts by following the breadcrumb trail at the top left side of the interface.

Navigation panel 

You'll find it on the upper left side of the screen. That's where we've grouped VoipNow's most important features. The number of sections displayed depend on your license and custom settings. 

Upper frame controls

They are always displayed in the upper right side of the screen and you can use them to log out or change your contact details or interface preferences.

Main frame controls

They are always displayed in the main frame and you can use them primarily for navigation and for opening the help page.

Some of the options are visible only in some situations:

Tables

In VoipNow, each table provides several configuration tools designed to offer you a better overview of the available records.

Customize tables

To set the total number of records displayed in each page:

  1. Click the 10, 25, and 100 links available at the bottom right of the page, under the table. The total number of records as well as other details (e.g. call cost) are shown on the left side. 

  2. In tables with several pages of records, navigate between pages using the controls available.

To customize the table layout:

  1. Click the Show Columns icon at the top right of the table. 

  2. Select the columns you want to see displayed. This is useful for tables with many columns that require scrolling to see all the information.

To sort the table by a specific criterion:

  1. Click a table header and the entire list will be sorted accordingly. The table header will be highlighted and an arrow will indicate how the list was sorted: in ascending or descending order. 
  2. Change the order can be with another click on the corresponding header.

To remove table records:  

  1. Select the records you want to delete.
  2. Click the Remove selected link and a confirmation pop-up window will be displayed. 
  3. Click OK if you want to remove the record(s) or Cancel if you do not wish to proceed. 
  4. In some cases, you will be redirected to another page and asked to review and confirm the removal.

Search tables

You can do either a simple search or an advanced one. Either way, the search criteria is retained until a new search is performed. When searching for a specific word, use the simple search controls described below.

In some cases, if you want to hide/reveal the Search options, you must click the Toggle search link.
