Hi Everyone, We are evaluating the software and it works very good. We ran into the following scenario and need some assistance: We have setup one SMPP link over TCPIP. We want now to activate 2 shortcodes (247, 365) from the Service Provider. Every thing is setup and we can send a SMS to both shortcodes and send a response out. The problem we are experiencing is that we want to link a certain keyword to a shortcode. At this stage we can send a sms to both shortcodes with the same keyword. We would like to seperate the keywords for the different shortcodes. Your assistance would be much appreciated. Gerrit | |||

Hi Gerrit, until bryce reply to you, you need to use Prefix parameter in 2-way command in NowSMS gateway. every SMS received you will capture this prefix keyword and store in your database to initiate a reply back. I should advice you to use a separate script in the case that you want to use many short codes in one single SMPP account....The prefix, i mean the keyword, this is the subscription scenario which most of us, we are using with NowSMS and everything is fine...

Hi Gerrit, Use the "Receive phone number(s)" parameter when setting up the 2-way commands. This specifies that a script should only be triggered if the recipient phone number (i.e., the short code on which the message was received) matches this value. Note that you can also pass this number to a 2-way script using the @@RECIP@@ variable, if you want to control the logic in your application instead. -bn |
