    It looks like in November 2016, Clickatell made some changes to their accounts, and all new accounts have access to the REST api only, while this plugin uses the HTTP api. I was able to contact Clickatell's support and have a developer account made for me to test out the plugin, but who knows how long they will continue to support the HTTP api. To the 3i Logic LMS Team, you may want to use the REST api in future versions of the plugin, or at least consider adding an option in the settings.

    Hi there,

    When I try send a message, it only lists user with a teacher role. Are there specific permissions that must be enabled to see the user with the role of student (learner) in a course?

    Thanks

    Dear Andrew,

    Thank you for using SMS Notifer plugin. It allows to send SMS to teacher and student. There are no specific permissions allow for sending an SMS, just teacher and student role must be defined in a course.

    Please confirm your Moodle and SMS Notifier version if you still face the same issue. You may directly reach us too at lms@3ilogic.com

    Thanks,

    Hi I'm currently using SMS block with Moodle 3.3.2+ (Build: 20170915) and when a message is send via this block we just received first word of the message. How can we solve this problem ?.

There was a file Sakshi loaded on our site but this has not help but rather now we get an error "message not sent due to an error: ERR:105, Invalid Destination Address". Please assist

    Dear Tumelo,

    Thank you for using SMS notifier. Please check number where you're messaging is in correct format. This issue happens normally when the destination number you are attempting to send to is invalid. We've successfully tested with adding a country code i.e 92xxxxxxxxxx

    If you still face the problem. Please confirm us plugin version we'll look into the matter.

    Hi there,

    I'm trying to set this up to work with a Moodle 3.3 and Clickatell.

    I'm getting: "Message(s) not sent due to an error: ERR: 105, Invalid Destination Address"

    So that I can check I’ve set up everything correctly,

    1) Can you confirm the settings I should use to set up an integration?

    2) Also what format should the users use for their mobile numbers? eg 07XXX XXXXXX, or +447XXX XXXXXX or..?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Noel

    Thanks for your Skype support, but still no joy. I've tried all sorts of things, still got the same message:
    "Message(s) not sent due to an error: ERR: 105, Invalid Destination Address"
    In you lib.php file I see you use the command:

    $url = "http://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg?user=" . $username . "&password=" . $password . "&api_id=" . $api_id . "&to=" . $numbers . "&text=" . $message;

    whereas in the Clickatell example it uses "https://platform.clickatell.com/messages/http/send?apiKey=XXXXXX==&to=XXXXXX&content=Test+message+text"

    is this the problem?
