We have a website that is used for a recreational youth baseball / softball organization. We have a need to be able to let parents/children know that practice/games are cancelled in the event of bad weather. A suggestion has come in to send a text notification out for this purpose. One of the board members is asking if I can add an extra page on the site to allow for people to enter their 10 digit cell number and a drop down box to choose the carrier and a submit button. Based on the choices it would automatically create the appropriate e-mail address (the cell phone # formatted for text purposes). I am not sure how this would all be stored...I am so not a web developer...just someone who is helping out with this site. He said he has someone who can help but I would like a better idea of what he is actually even speaking about and if it is possible with cutesitebuilder. Here is his e-mail to me: Can someone translate and tell me if it is possible?
We put up an extra page on the site for field condition text notifications. On this page there are two fields to enter. 1, your 10 digit cell number and then a drop down box to choose your carrier and a submit button. Based on those choices it will automatically create the e-mail address that we can send out field notifications to. He also thought we could do some formatting to keep it live all the time and just send out the e-mail from the application so it stays current.
We would also need some simple text stating we would only use it for field condition updates during the season and major announcements during the off season. Just so people don’t think there going to get spammed by MJBSA to their phone.
Thanks!
