Text Message Notification Settings
SimplePhoto can send gallery notification text messages when galleries are imported. Also, photographers can send gallery or prepay event links to a single mobile phone number easily through the SimplePhoto Gallery Control Panel. There is no charge for text messages sent for import gallery notifications since this feature is focused on notifying customers that galleries or prepay events are online and not advertising special offers through text messaging.
Customize SMS Message Text
- Under the Marketing link, from your dashboard, click Text Message Notification Settings.
- Type desired message in the Customize message prefix box. This is the message used for both gallery import notifications and single SMS notifications. Note: There is a 75 character limit on the customizable portion of this message.
- Click Save Changes.
Enable Text Message Notifications Upon Gallery Importing

Note: Customers can currently unsubscribe from text messages by sending us any message at all containing one of the following words: cancel, end, quit, stop, or unsubscribe. We will still continue sending text messages for digital download orders if a customer opts-in to receive a link via text even if their number is unsubscribed from other notifications.
