Try the newest version

 

First post

I set up this plugin last night and have updated to build 0.7.
I also set up a gmail account and whenever I send a message to link my account and my phone the server can't read it.

Is there any setting on the email account itself that I may need turned off or on ?

[INFO] Sending Message...
[INFO] Message Sent!
[INFO] Error reading email, Message thrown out

Any ideas ? I am using Permissions 2.x not 3 and my Carrier is Bell

Thanks

 

hmm... started up my server after updating a couple plugins and I got the following error

but... when I rebooted the server the error wasn't there. if it helps, when the error happened I didn't get a "Server is online" text, but on the reboot I did get one.

 

@ArchSlash
I could provide you with a debug version to find out why the email can't be read

 

I was using the updated TextPlayer, but my Permissions were out of date... updating fixed my problem.
Thanks!

 

@Codisimus
how a /list command to see whos online from your cell phone?

 

Im having an issue with it
there are times i can text pl in and get the list and send/receive texts to/from the server perfectly.

other times i have to reload the server thru console or ingame for it to register and then send/recive 20 minute late texts,
i was wondering if anytho else is haveing this problem or wether its most likly a user malfuntion 0.0
using textplayer 0.6.1

errm nvrmd i updated teh plugin .... fixed the problem.. so far

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

http://www.a1.net/
Why not found ?

 

you can type any of the following
/pl
pl
/who
who
/playerlist
playerlist
I think there are more too

They don't provide an sms gateway

 

Ok will watch your tutorial and see if it works once I get back from breakfast. I'm really eager to get this working.

 

OMG -.-
I hate Austria!
-.-
Omg i will use this plugin for my Phone

Edit//
I think i will be add this Plugin on my Server with E-Mail
but better as nothing


xD omg my English is bad

 

Thanks that would be a great help.. I am clueless to what is causing that error message

 

Says I have not been varifyed and when I added it it said error while sending verify text? What should I do?

 

I have been having the same exact problem as MiracleM4n. I am using a gmail account also. It worked for half the time and then it started sending me the 'reply enable to link this number'...message and the 'could not read incoming mail' error. besides the error, this is such an awesome plugin!! please help! thanks

please help :/ im using default ports and my gmail account

 

No, actually, from my phone. my carrier is MetroPCS, dunno if that helps?

 

notthing happends

 

once you have the newest version add your email again (you may have to change it to a fake email then change it back for it to work)

 

im not stupid i changed the email

 

I'm not saying you are stupid, so did you ever receive a confirmation email?

 

no

 

well i finally got it to work..kinda. now when i reply it just sais in the console
Error reading email, message thrown out
Message sent!

 

can you please add comviq as a carrier

this will be very help full for me

 

can you add nova for iceland

 

Hei dude, first at all, great idea. Well, I have this:

However, my consol said that your plug-in works and perfectly linked with Iconomy. I just can't send a message on a phone.. (it works with add@gmail). Can you help me? :/

 

could u add vodafone

 

Quick Question? Is that the British Carrier Three? OR does it not matter
Being on a UK Cell/Mobile How should i format my number ?

+44 78978 343435 (Test number)
+4478978 3434343
+44789783434343
44 78978 343435
4478978 3434343
44789783434343
07845324343

Should their be spaces in any part of the number basically? Should their be a + At the start?
Is a Dialing Code needed? etc. etc.

Cheers for any help.

 

Yes it is Three in UK, and I believe the format is 7845324343 spaces and '-' dont matter either way and I'm pretty sure their is no '+' (The dialing code should'nt be needed since they should all be UK for the carrier Three)

 

I've tried adding my number multiple times to no avail. (/._.)/ I have entered the correct number and carrier in Minecraft, I get the confirmation text, reply with 'enable'......then nothing, absolutely nothing >.>

 

Anyway to hide the phone-numbers from the people running the server? What if they go rogue on me while I'm textin' mah bro lettin' him know I just pwned the admin w/ mah diamond S-word?
