Thank you. That helps much, in the sense that I can now tell which line/account is ringing (although I've only tested one line so far - but I'm hopeful that it will work for all lines).
However, it created a multitude of other issues.
Am I wrong in thinking I should be able to edit "Display Name" and have it "stick" ? It did not. Everytime I changed it, it reverted to the old display name which was xxxx@host.domain.com . So, I tried creating a new account (call it "16") - and in that case the display name stuck, and was editable; problem successfully worked around.
Since creating a new account allowed me to edit Display Name, I decided to recreate the first account (call it "1"). As that required deleting the original account in order to recreate it, that's what I did. In doing so, I lost my somewhat lengthy contact list.
Also upon recreating the first account, the second account disappeared and I got an error message which unfortunately I neglected to make a note of. Essentially it was something about the wrong password, and it referenced account 16 - the one that disappeared, but it referenced it in the context of account 1. Confusing, I know - and unfortunately I can't be more specific than that.
So, I fixed up the password for the recreated account 1 and it logged in successfully. Since account 16 was now missing, I tried to create it again but got "This user already exists on the selected network. Please choose another user or network." So, now I have no way of actually accessing account 16 as it doesn't show up, yet I can't recreate it because I get that error message.
Next, am I wrong in thinking that the Display Name is what comes up when the phone rings? It does not (the account URI is what comes up). If this is correct behavior, then when/where is Display Name used?
Finally, I thought that Display Name stuck - but upon double-checking I now notice it's blank; so it is inconsistent in its behavior.
So, to summarize the above issues:
1) Unable to edit Display Name created in older build. Since I've already deleted this account, the issue is moot from my point of view.
2) My contact list is gone. Is there a way to recover it? I used the plain "Address book" format for "Contact Sources".
3) I have a "hidden" account I'm unable to use, delete, recreate or otherwise access. How can I fix this?
4) The Display Name is not used on incoming calls - or anywhere that I can see. What is it's purpose if not for this?
5) Display Name doesn't act consistently in the account field.
Thank you in advance.

Hello,
I have created multiple accounts in jitsi, each of which is
associated with a different phone number. That way, when someone
calls I can tell which number they called. Now I just need to
know how to make jitsi display which account/extension is ringing.
Thank you in advance.
