Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview
About this plugin
Nimba SMS connects your WordPress site to Nimba SMS, the professional communication platform for businesses, supporting SMS, WhatsApp and email (with more channels coming). This plugin covers the SMS and WhatsApp channels: send SMS with your company name as the sender, and WhatsApp messages through your Meta-approved templates, straight from WordPress. More channels will be added in future releases.
Features
WooCommerce: for each order status (processing, completed, cancelled), enable SMS, WhatsApp, or both, with customizable message templates. If WhatsApp is the only enabled channel and sending fails, the SMS message is sent automatically as a fallback. The store administrator can also receive an SMS for every new order.
WhatsApp: send messages through your Meta-approved WhatsApp Business templates (created from your Nimba SMS dashboard), with dynamic variables.
WordPress notifications: SMS to the administrator on new user registration or new comment.
Manual sending: send an SMS or a WhatsApp template message to one or several numbers directly from the admin.
Send log: history of sent messages with their delivery status, updated in real time through the Nimba SMS delivery webhook (URL provided in the settings, to paste into the “URL Webhook” field at https://www.nimbasms.com/app/api-keys).
Live balances: your SMS and WhatsApp credits displayed in the settings.
For developers: nimbasms_send( $to, $message ) and nimbasms_send_whatsapp( $to, $template, $variables ) functions plus hooks ( nimbasms_send_payload, nimbasms_after_send, nimbasms_wc_templates, nimbasms_webhook_received …) to integrate messaging into your own extensions.
