Hi all,

I added the needed details, but can't find them on OTRS.

This is what I added to Kernel/Config.pm:

        $Self->{PreferencesGroups}->{Mobile} = {
                Module => 'Kernel::Output::HTML::PreferencesGeneric',
                Column => 'Other Options',
                Label   => 'Mobile',
                Desc    => 'Mobile',
                Block   => 'Input',
                Data    => '$Env{"AgentMobile"}',
                PrefKey => 'AgentMobile',
                Prio    => 6001,
                Active   => 1,
        };

        $Self->{PreferencesGroups}->{Skype} = {
                Module => 'Kernel::Output::HTML::PreferencesGeneric',
                Column => 'Other Options',
                Label   => 'Skype',
                Desc    => 'Skype',
                Block   => 'Input',
                Data    => '$Env{"AgentSkype"}',
                PrefKey => 'AgentSkype',
                Prio    => 6002,
                Active   => 1,
        };

        $Self->{PreferencesGroups}->{IM} = {
                Module => 'Kernel::Output::HTML::PreferencesGeneric',
                Column => 'Other Options',
                Label   => 'IM',
                Desc    => 'IM',
                Block   => 'Input',
                Data    => '$Env{"AgentIM"}',
                PrefKey => 'AgentIM',
                Prio    => 6003,
                Active   => 1,
        };

I then did a restart for OTRS, but got nothing in the Agent editing interface.

Am I missing something?

Thanks and Best Regards,
Muhammad El-Sergani.

So, in this case, there's really no need for per-agent signatures; you
should do as Martin suggested:

Add a config option for Skype:

$Self->{PreferencesGroups}->{Mobile} = {
Module => 'Kernel::Output::HTML::PreferencesGeneric',
Column => 'Other Options',

Label => 'Skype',
Desc => 'Skype',
Block => 'Input',
Data => '$Env{"UserSkype"}',
PrefKey => 'UserSkype',
Prio => 6001,
Active => 1,
};

This way the agent can maintain his Skype ID via the User Preferences,
and also you can add it to the signature using the
<OTRS_Agent_UserSkype> tag.
