Hi Robert, Yes, there are template files for this user interface in the "HTML" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation. default.htm is the first page displayed. There is no magic to the other file names, NowSMS just serves up simple web content with the HTML directory being the root of the web server. Note ... it is also possible to have user specific templates. You can create templates in NowSMS\USERS\username\HTML to override any of the default HTML templates. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Why not leave the IP address at its default setting, "(all available)"? It is only necessary to explicitly set this value for advanced configurations where you have multiple IP addresses bound to a single server and you only want NowSMS active on one of the addresses. Change that setting back to "(all available)", then try to connect to http://127.0.0.1:8800 on the local PC running NowSMS. If that doesn't work, then there is most likely some sort of firewall software running that is blocking access. (The NowSMS install adds itself to the Windows firewall exceptions, but if you are using some other firewall, this could be an issue.) Assuming the 127.0.0.1 access works from the local PC ... from other PCs, you should be able to connect to http://192.168.1.2:8800", assuming that 192.168.1.2 is the IP address of the NowSMS server. If that doesn't work, again, it points to a firewall issue. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi Des It's good to hear we're allowed to edit the HTML pages. Is it possible to change SMS Users' details via these pages? I see that there are variables defined in the pages such as @@AvailableCredits@@ but can we use this to update the user's credits? What we're basically trying to accomplish is to somehow integrate these HTML pages so that changes to our user accounts can be made without having us technical guys update any NowSMS user accounts manually Thanks Chris | |||

Hi Chris, For updating user credits, or adding/deleting user accounts, there is an HTTP based provisioning interface. Here is a link that describes the interface: http://www.nowsms.com/support/bulletins/tb-nowsms-013.htm -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi Des, what webserver does the web pages use, can one introduce some other variables that may suit our specifics? If yes how? I'd want to add a page where users can click on a page and download the logs for sms sent for a particular day. How can one achieve this. | |||

Hi Michael, The web server is integrated into NowSMS. It only serves up static content, with the exception of some very limited processing of HTML variables such as @@AvailableCredits@@. All content is served relative to the "HTML" subdirectory of the NowSMS installation, with "default.htm" being the index page if no file is requested in the URL. User-specific content can exist in USERS\username\HTML, which the web server looks in first before serving from HTML. Unfortunately, the user log files are not available from this interface. We have talked about making them available for quite some time, but it has never been implemented. All in all, it is a very limited web server. For extensions, it is usually better to write your own web interface on your own web server, and interface with NowSMS for sending messages. -bn |
