How do I send you a text? I can only send a email to an email address, lol.

 

Sorry but this will most likely not become an option as it posses a security threat.

just try sending a text to my email address instead of a phone number (might not work on your phone)

 

OK thanks for your help!

 

Yeah I tried but it said invalid number ...

The three network does not seem to even be on that txtjet website

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

they have a list? it says any phone...

 

Explain..
It will say any phone but not any network. >.<

 

well then if its on that list i could code it into my plugin otherwise theres no possible way sorry

 

I submitted a question to Yahoo! Answers, so i'll see if I get a response there.

 

ok, I wish it could but this wont work on all carriers and some ppl may have to use email.

 

Well as I said, not even email will work for me as the 3 network is on that list.

 

no wut i meant was instead of receiving alerts to your phone, you can receive them to your email address

 

I already have it setup to send to my email address
But i'd still rather receive it as a text message.

 

Hi. I just got this plugin, and I'm using it with the latest version of permissions. I love it and so do the users on my server who are ops, however groups that have permissions to use the plugin get a "no permission" message. Do you have any idea what might be wrong? Thanks

 

I have fixed this, and was going to upload it but had to take care of sumthing that came up. It will be available as soon as i get back home

 

Could you implement STC Saudi Arabia

 

Never mind my last post, permissions work fine. However, in configuration, useisop has to be true, not false which is kinda confusing... Maybe thatnwas a mistake? Oh and a carrier request: telus, in canada?

Oh and sorry I'm asking so many questions, but could we just put the email seesaw for unsupported carriers in the email.save file?

Stupid auto correct email address not sesaw

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

not sure wut you mean
EDIT: oh yes you can but in the next update everything will be encrypted and you will have to reenter the data

 

I use cricket, could that be added?
I know they have a text thing on their site.
http://www.mycricket.com/send-text-message-online

Also, when I was flashing my phone, it uses [email protected], if that's any help

 

Sorry wont work with STC

Umm cricket needs to make up their mind... I saw @mycricket.com and @mms.mycricket.com all on their website. mms should worked but I'd rather it use sms so I tried @sms.mycricket.com if it doesn't work let me know and we can try a different one

it was a mistake and it should be fixed now (accidently deleted a "!") anyways telus has been added

<3 <3 <3
Thanks for the fast work!
Works great!

 

how can i remove a user in the list?
If i delete email.save and reloading my Server the datas comes back.

 

Hey there,

1) asking for german "Vodafone" (Provider)

Great work so far but the charge is still a problem itself ...
How about ppl without any "limit" messages? (every message charges)?



Greetz,
buckeT

 

Please, would it be possible to add Orange support ? Thanks a lot !

 

I need "Telenor" "Comvic" "Telia"

 

I'd need D1-Germany please that's a really nice idea!

 

Could u add "Telia" "TDC" & "Telenor"
All from denmark

 

Can someone tell how this works?

Can i send a sms with this to my phone? free of charge??

 

Could you implement "Orange"(France)?

 

it currently saves data onDisable() i guess i can change that... right now only way to delete is stop server, delete line, start server

VodaPhone-Germany added.

not sure wut you mean by this...

Orange added.

Telenor+Telia added... as for the others, did you mean Comviq? and is TDC Tele Denmark Mobile?

is D1 part of T-Mobile?

It uses your normal texting plan. so if you have unlimited it wont charge you

 

Being able to text back the server would be AMAZING!!!!!
