[HQ] SMS Notification of PMs
Posted: Tue Jun 17, 2014 10:01 pm
Hey guys, Trent here.
Before I leave the community, I would like to contribute something that's pretty useful.
That's going to be.. linking the emails you get from PkHonor (Private Messages) to text message notifications.
However, if you do not have gmail, the steps WILL be different. I'd advise getting a gmail account.
*HAS TO BE EMAIL ACCOUNT LINKED TO YOUR FORUMS ACCOUNT.
Let's get started!
1. Log into your gmail account, from there click on the gear icon.
2. Click the dropdown menu and select 'settings'.
3. Click on the 'Forwarding and POP/IMAP' tab.
4. Click the 'Add a forwarding address' button.
5. This popup is going to occur:
This is where this gets precise. Here's a list of specific things you have to do for different carriers. Where you see 'phonenumber' enter your 10 digit phone number.
Then, click 'Proceed'
6. You will get a comfirmation text, simply just put the confirmation code in the field and hit 'Verify'.
7. Mark the tickbox, then proceed to click 'creating a filter!' link.
8. Add '[email protected]' into the Filter From box, then hit 'Create filter with this search'.
Congratulations, your PkHonor PMs are now linked to your SMS![/color]
