Nevermind. I figured it out. I have to comment out lines I don't want provisioned. So my next question is what does the following do in the template because it is obviously always going to the Else statement and clearing out the settings.
{IF blf3}
linekey.5.line = %%Line%%
linekey.5.value = %%blf3%%
linekey.5.pickup_value = %%PickupValue%%
linekey.5.type = %%DKtype%%
linekey.5.label = %%blffirstname3%% %%blflastname3%%
linekey.5.extension = %%PickupValue%%
{ELSE}
linekey.5.type = 0
{ENDIF}

Interesting, I've never seen IF statements in a config file before.

It looks like IF THEN and ELSE statements are not valid. Take a look at this thread from 2014, someone else had the same issue with the template provided by 3CX. They resolved it by removing all IF THEN and ELSE statements.

Hope this helps.

@Phonism,

I don’t know why you referring to a 3 years old thread, but the templates 3CX use today the command sequence IF, ELSE and ENDIF are still valid.
Please familiar yourself with these templates. Never too old to learn something.
3CX templates... I use them daily.

Thanks for pointing out that it's an old thread and If statements are relevant. However, you did nothing to answer the question. What is if BLF? I thought it meant if a BLF was assigned use the programmed info if nothing then turn it off/NA. So what does blf check for and what does %% do?
