Hi,

If i want i wildcard sms in 2-way SMS i just add * but if i want a wilcard like "Now*" and everything starting with "Now" will trigger the application to respond to that, it seems like it don´t support this function.

Can i have several wildcard like that?

Regards Anders

Anders,

That's a good idea ... but right now, only a single * will work.

Seb,

I'll put it on the list for consideration ... no guarantees unfortunately ... especially as we are currently behind schedule on the next release. But if not the immediate next release, I'm sure we could address it in the future.

One thing I usually suggest to people with this type of need is that they use a single 2-way SMS command, and have the script that processes the wildcard request do its own routing from there to other scripts if necessary.
