T46G Local Directory: How to add/upload a group photo

[Werner1959]

In my local directory on one of my T46G I have several groups. In one of this group meenwhile there are about 170 members (entries). Now I want to add a group-specific photo, which should be displayed with each of the members of this group. Sure you understand that I do not want to upload the photo to each of the 170 single members separately, which, by the way, would be an absolutely unprofessional solution, more precisely, this would be no acceptable option. Now @YEALINK, how to upload a group photo to this group or to all group members in one operation?

Hello,

For your request, Yealink doesn't support it.
Sorry for that.

Hello Travis, thanks for your reply. However, these are not good news.

I consider it unacceptable that your customers have to edit 170 or - with growing directory - even several hundred entries individually to upload one single image for one single group. I hope your company is of the same opinion and a solution is being implemented soon to enable this feature.

Your company leaders should remember, that they are selling the T46G "for executive users and busy professionals" (!) and not as a leisure toy for Donald Duck.

According to this, your business customers expect appropriate functions that do not make the job more difficult but easier.

Hello,

I am so sorry, I read your original post again, and I might misunderstand earlier.

We do have a convenient method to upload the contacts and avatars. Firstly, please kindly check the document attached.

For your requirement, for examply, you have 170 contacts, and you want to seperate them to 3 groups, with 3 different avatars, and all contacts in the same group use the same avatars, am I right?

default_photo="Config:Cathy.png
default_photo="Config:Eric.png

To distinguish different group, just need to set certain avatar name on this contact line.

Any misunderstanding, freely to let me know.

Regards
Travis
