You can now specify the default country code when sending out mass Text and Voice messages. Just go to the Features page, click on “Configure” next to the “Mass Parent Messaging” module. The following pop-up will appear:

The default is set to +1 for the United States and Canada. Simply change it to the appropriate code (with the PLUS sign in front), and click save. And all phone numbers without a plus sign in front will use the default country code you’ve specified.

If you need to send a message to a parent outside your default country code, simply type in the full phone number, with the plus sign and the country code in the front, into the phone number field. The system will not use the default country code setting if you specify the plus sign in the phone field.
