UWS Notify Add-on

The UWS Notify Add-on for Ultimate WP SMS lets you automatically send SMS notifications to selected groups when specific posts, comments, or custom post types are created or when their status changes. It’s a powerful tool for automating content-based alerts to your users or team.

Follow these simple steps to configure notification rules:

1. Go to your WordPress dashboard.

2. Navigate to Ultimate WP SMS → Groups.

3. Locate the bell icon (🔔) next to each group — click it to open the Notification Settings modal.

4. In the modal, click "Add Notification" to create a new rule.

5. You can now configure the following:

   • Post Type / Comment: Select the type of content you want to track (Post, Page, CPT, or Comment).

   • Category or Taxonomy: Narrow down the trigger by category or custom taxonomy.

   • Status Trigger: Choose which status change should trigger the SMS (e.g., Published, Approved, Pending).

   • Message: Enter your SMS message using dynamic tags (see below)

   • Enable/Disable: Toggle the notification on or off as needed.

6. Save the notification rule — your group will now receive SMS alerts based on your selected conditions.

Use these placeholders inside your SMS message to insert dynamic content:

• %name% – Name of the group member receiving the SMS




• %posttitle% or %post_title% – Title of the post

• %postauthor% or %post_author% – Author of the post

• %postlink% or %post_link% – URL to the post

• %postexcerpt% – First 20 words of the post content

• %postid% or %post_id% – WordPress post ID

• %post_date% – Post publish date

• %post_date_gmt% – Publish date in GMT

• %post_content% – Full content of the post

• %post_status% – Post status (e.g., pending, published)

• %comment_status% – Whether comments are enabled or not

• %post_name% or %post_slug% – Post slug (URL-safe name)

• %post_modified% – Last modified date

• %post_modified_gmt% – Modified date in GMT

• %post_guid% – Unique identifier for the post

• %post_shorturl% – Short URL for the post (requires Jetpack for wp.me links)

• %post_feature_img% – URL of the post’s featured image

• %postmeta_<your_field_name>% – Value of a custom field (e.g., %postmeta_price%)

Use these when creating SMS rules for new comments:

• %name% – Name of the recipient




• %posttitle% – Title of the post being commented on

• %commauthor% – Name of the comment’s author

• %commcomment% – Content of the comment

• %commlink% – URL to view the comment
