Hi,
I am running WP-Pizza along with WinOrder.
On another business I have another setup, which sends customers SMS confirmations once printed by WinOrder.
Is it possible to set it up like that? If not possible (or plausible) to do it with WinOrder, is it possible to send SMS confirmations automatically without needing to go into the backend and confirming a customers order?
Thanks in advance!
I assume you are referring to the Confirm/Reject/Notify plugin (you did not say) so I created a forum(s) for it that did not exist. Thanks for pointing that out.
Regarding your question, the CRN plugin has a filter you can use to add your branding like so (as you know, this will only work if using one-way communications):
add_filter('wppizza_crn_sms_branding', 'mysmsbranding');
function mysmsbranding($sms_sender_id){
/*
overwrite sender id as required (here set to MyShop123 )
a-zA-Z0-9 (and spaces) only, 11 characters max
*/
$sms_sender_id = 'MyShop123';
return $sms_sender_id;
}
(not tested as such, but should work I would think)
Good afternoon,
I can’t find the right extensions forum so I post my question here.
We want to send only a text sms when the order is on its way.
We like to display our company name in the sms (that’s possible with tm4b). in stead of our mobile number.
We know that’s limited to one way communication but that’s fine for our purpose.
Thanks!
@Silo I would recommend the Goodcom printers they are relatively easy to use after setup. You can use Wifi or sms and you can use reject/accept + give a time for delivery to orders.
i guess people get the printers from here (at least I know some do )
https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=goodcom
some of the printers (but I do not know if all) DO support an accept/reject function and some will support WiFi as well as SMS (and some only WiFi, you’d have to look at a particular printers specification)
however, the wppizza plugin itself does not “listen/talkto” – so to speak – to the printer rejecting/accepting/receiving an order.
That said , I am in the middle of finalizing an addon (tested with the GT6000 as well as the newer GT90, so one would think it would work with other reasonably recent goodcom printers too) that will do that.
Might be a week or two away though until this plugin will be released, as I need to tidy up a few things still
hope that helps
Hi Guys
I am looking around in this forum and seems that everybody uses goodcom.
Can GoodCom reject/accept orders without using sms function?
And where do you guys buy the printer from?
Thanks in advance

Good guess! I will pass that on to him thank you. It might save me the hassle haha.
I personally get bombarded ALL the time, the SMS marketing has gone crazy in Australia.
>The restaurant wishes to enable guest checkouts to increase conversion rates whilst maintaining the ability to Remarket email and SMS promotions in the future.
and this would be completely illegal. never mind GDPR (which may or may not apply to that restaurant)
it’s simply called SPAM
The restaurant wishes to enable guest checkouts to increase conversion rates whilst maintaining the ability to Remarket email and SMS promotions in the future.
Thanks anyway, I suppose I’ll create a function for this.
You can do this using the Zapier email parser combined with Twilio. Once the order is placed you can fire an SMS to your client and have them confirm the order by replying to the SMS message. Make sure it is forwarded to your phone so you can receive the answer and then proceed to get the order completed.
I had some wrong orders someone made for fun. I would like now, that during the order process the telephone number of the customers be verified by sms. Is there a way to do this?
Dear Olly
Is it possible that you can also receive orders via SMS?
Thanks

Hi,
Is it possible to send SMS to the restaurant and to the customer when he places an order?
Thanks,
Zia
you will have to use (and implement) an email 2 SMS gateway.
which one is suitable depends on your location as there are carrier charges involved.
if you search this forum for SMS , you will also find additional info

Sorry, but you are asking questions i cannot answer.
a) i know nothing about your printer, so anything related to that printer you will have to ask the manufacturer/merchant you bought it from
b) re: which SMS / Mail2Fax plugin…
there are no wppizza sms/mail2fax plugins.
there are however many (e)mail2fax services.
which one – if any – would be the right one in your circumstances i have no idea and cannot advise you (i do not even know or indeed understand why you would want any if you have a gprs printer)
all i can say is that there are codesnippets here you *might* be able to use with your setup/printer/smsgateway etc
how exactly you would have to code or setup things in your scenario I have no knowledge about.
I know nothing about your sms gateway, printer or any other API of anything else you are referring to above.
my *guess* would be the following:
you do not need to download any plugin, but will need someone to – programmatically – connect your printer using the API that your printer provides using the codesnippets.
Good Morning,
I wanted to ask about which SMS / Mail2Fax gateway use to print with printers gprs.
Thank you very much.
