The xml file (product-sms_notify.xml) seems to be missing some info. There are no parameters listed for "Options". In fact, there's only a close tag for options... <options /> No open tag and nothing in between! ;)

Sorry it's taken me so long, I'll check into it again today, just had a lot going on. =)

I just exported it again to see. I have open and close tags for options, it's just not grabbing the options for some reason. No idea... I'll see what I can do.

Ok, I've gone back and made sure the settings were under the correct product, I've changed the product, resaved it, changed it back, resaved, etc... nothing seems to work. No idea why the options aren't being included... I'll keep working on it.

Thanks again for all your help Trek. I'm really excited about seeing this mod work so keep up the good work! I know life sometimes gets in the way too so please don't apologise when you aren't able to reply for a few days! LOL

Thanks for understanding. =) I just deleted the settings group I was using, recreated it from scratch and it still won't export. I'll do some more looking around. =/ It obviously works, I use it on my own site. heh

Any updates? I would like to deploy this on my site.

Ok, I finally updated the mod, it should install correctly now. I apologize for the long delay in releases, etc.

In any case, please let me know if you have any issues with this release. I've exported it and reinstalled it on my own forums and it's working without issue.

Can it be made to allow user to input only the phone number? The majority of users will not know what their phone's e-mail address is.

Also, can you have the option for the user to be automatically added to the sms list? (automatically subscribed) They could be given the option in the profile field to select (yes or no) if they would like to receive free text alerts. I'd like to steer them away from having to go to two different places in order to achieve their goal.

That wouldn't work.
For example in Australia they could enter '0412345678' as their phone number
But the script would have no idea what their SMS email address is.
It could be:
0412345678@three.com.au
0412345678@optus.com.au
0412345678@virginmobile.com.au
0412345678@telstra.com.au
0412345678@vodafone.com.au
The numbers can't be matched to a particular carrier based on the prefix either, because it's possible to transfer the number between carriers (I've had the same number with 4 companies personally).

The only way around that would be to have a list of every single mobile carrier in the world, and have the user choose their mobile network when they enter their number, ie:
Number: (Enter Number)
Carrier: (Select)

But the advantage of doing it this way is that because they can specify an email address, they could also put in their Blackberry address and get short notifications sent there. Or if they have a mobile email account, they could enter that instead.

It's a great idea for a mod! I like it :)
