You can use Bulk Account to generate Scratch Code in advance.

You can take advantage of our new FirstSpot v7 SMS Sign-up feature. Refer to chapter 3 of firstspot_guide.pdf for details.

Hi, I've got the SMS Sign-up working but I would like to have a txt log that I can audit for all the sms guest signup.

Currently, we don't store the SMS Sign-up phone number.

We plan to add this feature for your case. We prefer to store it in the user table fsusr instead of separate text file.

Can you give us more feedback on your usage? We want to know more on your requirements.

Hi, I can't find the numbers in the fsusr table either. We fine to have them in the fsusr.

As we are opening our wifi for company guest, we like to know who was using the free access wifi.

After more discussion, we find that a text file is easier to implement. Below is the patch (for v7.0.5):

http://patronsoft.com/firstspot/download/patch/706/improve_sms_signup_patch.zip

If the email sending through the email-to-sms gateway is successful, FirstSpot will write the SMS sign-up data to the file sms_signup.log under FirstSpot\log directory.

okay, found the location to put the patch.

Would be possible to do csv file? easier to search.

The file is actually in csv format (though the file extension is .log).

how do we have a additional field for guest to key-in their company name during the scratch code registration?

alan · **Forum facilitator** Joined: 26 Sep 2003 Posts: 4435

Currently, "Extra Information Fields" is supported in Self Sign-up but not SMS Sign-up.

We can implement "Extra Information Fields" feature for SMS Sign-up. Note that user will be asked to fill in the mobile number + company name during sign-up. Also, since we now take advantage of the "Extra Information Fields" feature, we might need to switch to storing the mobile number back ODBC table fsusr (instead of the text log file).

Feel free to give us feedback on this.

yes do agreed that using the ODBC table is easier for checks and administration.

any idea the costs for having the "extra information fields" in SMS sign-up? I need to know to put up as a project costing.

One question first : are you currently an existing customer?
