I am having an issue with SMS messages not being automatically sent. They are showing queued in the SMS history and only seem to be sent when you click on refresh. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
There isn't a possibility in Amelia for the SMS messages to be queued - the status in the SMS history is like that because for some reason the response about SMS notification status wasn't received in the Amelia WP back-end from the server - and even though you see queued the message was sent or failed when it had to be sent (when appointment is booked for example). So, when you click on Refresh there, you see the actual status of these SMS notifications - whether they were sent or not at the moment when they were supposed to be sent. You can check the actual status of the SMS notifications in your database as well, in the wp_amelia_notifications_sms_history table.
If you have any other questions or concerns feel free to open a new ticket and we will gladly help out.
Ok thanks. We are finding out that texts are in fact sending, although saying they are queued. I’m not entirely worried about what the status says as long as they are getting them. I could not find anything in our database about a history table. I went in to our FTP manager and searched but could not locate it if that is where it is.

You are welcome, Mike.
You need to access to your database (via cPanel or PhpMyAdmin or whatever tool you use for that) and you will find there the
wp_amelia_notifications_sms_history
table. It can have another prefix rather than wp_ depending on your database, so if you have some prefixx there it will be something like
yourprefix_amelia_notifications_sms_history
