POSTING BY SMS

THIS IS SO AWESOME. THIS POSTING WORKS!

 

The above sentence was posted via SMS by using the WebSMS2u.com SMS Inbox Forwarding service to my script here on WordPress!

How does it work? – All I had to do was send an SMS to 32355 which wrote “SMS OPP (Posting by SMS) This is so awesome. This posting works!“

The forwarding engine at WebSMS2u.com identifies the message as belonging to my account (identifier being the word ‘OPP‘), and forwards the real content portion “(Posting by SMS) This is so awesome. This posting works!” to my script here. The script URL is up to me to set in my OPP WebSMS2u Account Manager but it basically points to my script here. Or it can be pointed elsewhere if needed for other purposes.

The wp-websms2u.php script sitting on Ourplaypen.com then which then breaks down the mesage into Subject and Text and enters the entry into my posts automatically.

The subject / category portion is determined by the words inbetween the (brackets) and the rest of the text following that is entered as text.

I have set the authentication to check against my userlist here so that only registered users are able to perform posts to my blog.
