Sounds like the SMS message will just be a small amount of text, so you could create a WordPress Post and then display that Post however you like. So, this is doable with a little template work on your site. Maybe a new classifieds page template that displays multiple ads on one page. If you just want one ad per page, there is no additional work required.</p> <p>2. If you use a textarea, there is a javascript character counter, and you can set your limit to 160 characters or whatever your limit is.</p> <p>3. You can have both a displayed confirmation, and an email notification will be sent if you choose to configure it that way.</p> <p>4. Admin notifications are built in.</p> <p>Sounds like a really neat use for Gravity Forms and I would be happy to help you implement it by giving suggestions where I can. After you make your purchase, open a new support topic with one issue at a time and we'll help you out. 2, 3, and 4 are all built in, so you won't need more help there. For item #1, you will need to choose how you display the 'ads' in your WordPress theme. That's not really related to Gravity Forms, but we can point you in the right direction. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/lots-of-questions-before-i-hit-buy#post-37903 Fri, 14 Oct 2011 06:24:42 +0000 chrystallee 37903@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have a client who wants to create an order form for an SMS broadcasting service.</p> <p>The form would include fields where their customer enters the message to be broadcasted, selects which categories of target audience, each with a price, and proceed to Paypal to make a payment.</p> <p>Broadcasting of the SMS would be done manually from the client's side when the order has been received.</p> <p>1. Is there a hook/option to display the SMS message on another page on the site as well, upon submission of order? Something like a classified ads page. The customer gets to display his "ad" on my client's website, as well as have his "ad" broadcasted through SMS.</p> <p>2. In the SMS message field, will I be able to limit the number of characters the customer types?</p> <p>3. Will I be able to create an order confirmation page/e-mail once payment has been confirmed? This will be sent to the customer after the Paypal payment, to inform him that his order is being processed.</p> <p>4. Will my client be able to receive a notification e-mail once an order has been made? </p>
