When attempting to send an SMS in 4.7.23 no text area appears in the dialog for entering the message. I DO get the 'From', 'To', 'Name; and 'Template' widgets. If I press send SMS I get the error 'Please provide Text message.'

This was working last time I used it (maybe 4.7.21?)

I have tried this with different browsers and different SMS providers to no effect. The problem arose with v2 of the clickatell extension and upgrading to version 3 made no difference.

Suggestions appreciated

Searched the www directory for files containing 'editMessageDetails' (grep -inr "editmessagedetails" /var/www/) and compared the result for two different civi installations. Faulty installation had many files with this string in templates_c and the tmp directories. Cleared these & problem vanished.

This can be achieved by:

  • Clearing the cache via CiviCRM UI - docs in wiki
  • Executing same via CLI, eg cv api System.flush (or equivalent drush, wp-cli commands)
  • Manually removing the directories and files beneath templates_c (and tmp?) directories.
