So, I was bored last sunday and I wrote this little script. It has no advanced features, you will just receive a sms alert saying who sent you the PM. In future versions, I plan to add more cool features.
Download the zip file from here : #-Link-Snipped-#
or for geeks : #-Link-Snipped-#
Open up config.py file and fill up the details. You also need an account on fullonsms.com Example config file would be :
Set up a cron job in *nix like machines so that you don't have to run the script again and again. And use Windows Task Scheduler if you are in Windows 7 or higher. More better instructions are <a href="https://github.com/avinassh/forum-sms-notifier/blob/master/README.md" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">forum-sms-notifier/README.md at master · avinassh/forum-sms-notifier · GitHub</a> The script just checks for unread PMs and sends you the sms.
Its an open source project, hop in if you find this exciting!
Future plans :
Have any doubts ? Shoot!

Future plans :
- Lil conversation description in the SMS.
- Errors and exceptions handling.
- Ability to add more than one forum.
- To support various types of forum softwares (vBulletin and myBB next!).
- Fallback if one sms provider fails.
- Better way of specifying frequency to check for new private message.
- Persistance. So that you don't keep on getting alerts for unread messages.
- Add better read me and instructions.
