Hi All

Hopefully someone can help. I am trying to set up an easier to manage communication tool for our youth group. We currently use a mixture of email, sms and phone calls. I have a WordPress site and have installed BuddyPress. We will be posting news, events and consent forms etc for the young people and parents. Setting up email alerts is easy, however, there are many different sms providers and I am hoping that someone has had experience with them. Has anybody got any advice please?

Huge thanks.

I use SMS messaging via https://www.gcicom.net/Our-Services/Unified-Communications/SMART-Messenger

I use it in a bespoke company scheduler to send our reminders each night (via CRON) based on a PHP/REST script that interrogates the database to find who needs them.

Piss easy.

When it comes to Wordpress, I tend to tie two 10' barge-poles together to poke it away. Can't help in that specific regard.
