Conference users hear MOH until leader enters?
I'm attempting to replicate the behavior of an Asterisk system with FreeSwitch and I need a feature that, I'm surprised to say, doesn't seem to be supported (easily). Ok, so I've setup my dialplan so that when a specific extension is hit, it calls out to some javascript which acts like an IVR to handle the conference setup. (Similar to this: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Examples_confcall_js but with my own improvements.) Anyway, the conferences are stored permanently in a database, but I want them protected by their "owner" so they can only be used when that conference owner dials. If other users have entered the conference prior to the owner, they should hear music-on-hold until the leader enters. This is easy in Asterisk because you can pop someone into MeetMe with different flags. So, in my IVR, I prompt for the "conference number" (known to all) and then the "password" (known only to the owner/leader). If the proper password is entered, the user is sent to conference XYZ with the leader flag set. If no password is entered, the user goes to conference XYZ, without the leader flag. If anyone enters before the leader, they're told by MeetMe that "the conference will begin when the leader arrives" and MeetMe provides MOH until that time. Help! This is an absolute deal-breaker for my install... How can I do this in FreeSwitch?

Quoting Mr. Anthony Minessale: thThe easiest way would be the new feature I added to 13442
in the conference profile add
<param name="conference-flags" value="wait-mod"/>
to your <profile>
and in your dialplan
<action application="set" data="conference_member_flags=*moderator*"/> <action application="conference" data="1234@wideband"/>
or
<action application="conference" data="1234@wideband+flags{*moderator*}"/>
Don't forget the wishlist and donate button on the main site....
