Send text message to mobile phone button

[gamedivisionuk]

I had 2 issues I've managed to solve 1 of them and that was,make a phone call button with this script attached to an NGUi button

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class button : MonoBehaviour {

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {

}

void OnClick() {
Application.OpenURL("tel:07979566922");
}
}

Now the other issue which I have no clue what so ever to achieve is,creating a text message button,exactly the same as the phone button pre-made text message to a mobile number.
Each person will have a button under their name all the user will have to do is press that button and it will send a standard message to that person,no messing around typing or inputting numbers,how would I go about making this NGui button
Hope someone can help
Thank you

I'm not sure I understand the question. Have a script on your button with OnClick() in it, and do what you want inside.

Say if you want to send a text message to your friend you have to open up a new message write the message then input his number then press send,I want to be able to just have a button with the message and phone number already attached so all you have to do is press send

Maybe I'm getting my words mixed up,send an SMS via a simple button

I have no idea how to send an SMS, and it has nothing to do with NGUI.

i merely asking a question( i thought thats what forums are for) could i add a script to an ngui button and send an sms,so if im using ngui and I'm asking about ngui then i think it has alot to do with ngui,i don't understand why you would say that.

As I mentioned in my first reply -- create a custom script, attach it to your button. Inside that script have "void OnClick() {...}", and replace "..." with the code that does your SMS logic. Triggering of an event = NGUI, and that's "OnClick" = trivial and explained thoroughly many times over. Sending an SMS logic = outside of NGUI.

Sending an sms/imessage might be more advanced than just opening an URL. Look into how it's done natively and make a plugin for that functionality. I don't think there's any short cuts for it, I'm afraid.

thank you for the polite reply,as im unable to code i think the only option i have is to buy another plugin,the only reason i ask was to see if someone maybe had done it before and could possible help,I'm not asking plp to do the project for me.just help

We're technically outside the scope of NGUI, so I won't dig more into this for now. But look here

As far as I know, there's no plugins made for it, at least on iOS. Best of luck finding one or getting it to work.
