Link to send SMS not working in Quote Template

Corey L. shared this problem 3 days ago

Trying to include the below code in my quote form:

<a href="sms:**********" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">text us</a>

However, the link is generating as a relative link (https://rental.software/quotes/sms:**********) instead of the proper form for generating a text message

remove target="_blank" a new tab doesn't need to open. browsers will know to open the phone app.

Remove rel="noopener noreferrer". Great for security when opening a new tab but not an app.

I've tried it with and without each of those.

Quote Confirm Page Template in a paragraph at the top


It comes after this:


<link type="text/css" href="../styles/reset.css" rel="stylesheet" io="keep">

<link type="text/css" href="../styles/bootstrap-combined.no-icons-custom.min.css" rel="stylesheet" media="all" io="keep">

<link type="text/css" href="../styles/fontawesome-free-5.7.2-web/css/all.min.css" rel="stylesheet" media="all" io="keep">

<link type="text/css" href="../styles/quoteme.css" rel="stylesheet" io="keep">

<link type="text/css" href="../styles/bootstrap-responsive.css" rel="stylesheet" io="keep">

<link type="text/css" href="../styles/bootstrap-custom.css" rel="stylesheet" io="keep">


Not sure if any of these have an override in them?

I don't think so.


Try href="//sms:*******" or href="SMS:+1*********"

I already attempted to force it to absolute with // and it didn't work.... and the system automatically is forcing lower case in the editor (even in the code)

Pardon the delay, this is being looked at but I don't have anything conclusive yet. I'll keep you updated.
