## Description

**Registration Alerts for Telegram** fires a customisable Telegram message every
time a new user registers on your WordPress site — via the standard registration
form, WooCommerce checkout, REST API, or the admin panel.

#### Free Features

 * Instant Telegram notification on every new user registration
 * Customisable message template with dynamic shortcodes (`{display_name}`, `{user_login}`,`{
   user_email}`, `{role}`, `{source}`, `{site_name}`, `{admin_url}`)
 * Registration source detection (WooCommerce, form, admin, REST API, bulk import)
 * Non-blocking delivery — notifications are deferred to shutdown so checkout flows
   are never slowed
 * Auto-detect Chat ID from the bot’s recent messages
 * Live Telegram message preview in the admin
 * One-click token validation and test message
 * Supports private chats, groups, supergroups, and channels

#### Pro add-on (optional, separate plugin)

**SafeUser Pro** is a standalone add-on — distributed separately from this free 
plugin — that adds:

 * **Role-Based Routing** — send notifications to different Telegram chats per user
   role
 * **Registration Insights** — charts of registration trends by source and role

SafeUser Pro is not included in or required by this free plugin. Learn more: https://
fnlpulse.com/safeuser/

#### Security

The bot token can be locked via a `wp-config.php` constant so it is never stored
in the database:

    ```
    define( 'REATG_BOT_TOKEN', 'your-token' );
    ```

### External Services

This plugin connects to the **Telegram Bot API** (`api.telegram.org`) — a third-
party service operated by Telegram — to deliver notifications and configure your
bot. This is required for the plugin to function.

What is sent and when:

 * **On each new user registration:** the plugin calls the `sendMessage` endpoint
   to deliver your notification. The message contains whatever fields you include
   in your template — by default this can be the new user’s username, email address,
   display name, role, and registration source.
 * **When you save/validate the bot token or send a test message:** the plugin calls
   the `getMe` and `sendMessage` endpoints to verify the token and chat.
 * **When you click Auto-Detect:** the plugin calls the `getUpdates` endpoint to
   read your bot’s recent messages and find your Chat ID.
 * **Connectivity check:** the plugin may make a request to `api.telegram.org` to
   confirm outbound HTTPS is available.

Your bot token is transmitted to Telegram as part of each API request. No data is
sent to Telegram unless you have configured a bot token.

 * Terms of Service: https://telegram.org/tos
 * Privacy Policy: https://telegram.org/privacy

## Installation

 1. Upload the `safeuser-registration-alerts-for-telegram` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`
 2. Activate via **Plugins > Installed Plugins**
 3. Go to **Settings > Registration Alerts for Telegram**
 4. Enter your Telegram bot token (create one at @BotFather on Telegram)
 5. Click **Auto-Detect** to find your Chat ID, or enter it manually
 6. Save settings — you will receive an alert on every new registration

## FAQ

### How do I create a Telegram bot?

Open Telegram, search for @BotFather, send `/newbot`, and follow the prompts. Copy
the token it gives you into the plugin settings.

### How do I find my Chat ID?

Send any message to your bot, then click **Auto-Detect** in the plugin settings.
The plugin calls `getUpdates` on your bot and returns the most recent chat ID automatically.

### Does this slow down registration or WooCommerce checkout?

No. Notifications are sent on the `shutdown` hook, after the HTTP response is delivered.
The user’s browser never waits for the Telegram API.

### Can I send to a group or channel instead of a private chat?

Yes. Add the bot as an admin of the group or channel, then paste the group/channel
Chat ID (usually a negative number starting with -100) into the settings.

### Where is registration source data stored?

In user meta (`_reatg_registration_source`), used to populate the `{source}` placeholder.
The plugin options are removed on uninstall.

## Changelog

#### 1.3.7

 * Fixed: Auto-Detect now clears any active webhook on the bot token before polling
   for messages — Telegram refuses `getUpdates` while a webhook is registered, which
   caused detection to fail with a “Conflict” error.

#### 1.3.6

 * Fixed: Auto-Detect Chat ID could miss a brand-new chat until a second message
   was sent; the bot’s first `my_chat_member` (start) event is now recognized too.

#### 1.3.5

 * Fixed: Bot Token field no longer triggers the browser’s “save password” prompt.
 * Fixed: Header subtitle left-aligned with the plugin title.

#### 1.3.4

 * Changed: Admin menu label shortened to “SafeUser”.
 * Added: `{profile_url}` and `{order_url}` message template placeholders — `{order_url}`
   links to the user’s most recent WooCommerce order, if any.

#### 1.3.3

 * Chore: Added screenshots/ to .gitignore for WordPress.org compliance.

#### 1.3.2

 * Changed: Removed Insights and Pro tabs from free plugin settings page.
 * Added: Footer message with link to SafeUser Pro (https://fnlpulse.com/safeuser/).

#### 1.3.1

 * Fixed: Admin page heading and menu label no longer abbreviate “Telegram” to “
   Tg”.
 * Changed: Pro add-on link now points to https://fnlpulse.com/safeuser/.

#### 1.3.0

 * Changed: This plugin is now fully free and self-contained. Role-Based Routing
   and Registration Insights moved to a separate optional add-on (SafeUser Pro) 
   distributed outside WordPress.org.
 * Removed: Bundled Freemius SDK, all license checks, the analytics table/logging,
   and the bundled Chart.js library.
 * Added: Extension hooks (`reatg_chat_id`, `reatg_user_registered`, `reatg_register_settings`,`
   reatg_admin_assets`, `reatg_settings_telegram_extra`, `reatg_insights_panel`)
   so the add-on attaches without modifying core.
 * Added: `uninstall.php` to remove plugin options on uninstall.

#### 1.2.75

 * Fixed: Corrected Freemius vendor path in bootstrap (dirname with 2 levels to 
   reach plugin root).

#### 1.2.74

 * Changed: Updated Freemius bootstrap configuration — added premium_slug, set is_premium
   to true.
 * Fixed: Removed AI generator metadata from German translation files.

#### 1.2.73

 * Changed: Renamed plugin to “SafeUser – Registration Alerts for Telegram”; slug,
   text domain, Freemius slug, and language files updated to `safeuser-registration-
   alerts-for-telegram`. Internal `reatg_` prefix and settings unchanged.
 * Changed: Admin heading updated to “SafeUser: registration alerts for Tg”.
 * Added: “External Services” disclosure section for the Telegram Bot API.
 * Fixed: Replaced the Telegram paper-plane header logo with the SafeUser plugin
   logo (trademark compliance).

#### 1.2.72

 * Added: English POT template and German (de_DE) translation files (.po + .mo)
 * Fixed: languages/ directory now committed — Git requires a file inside to track
   an empty folder

#### 1.2.71

 * Fixed: Remove underline from .reatg-btn anchor elements (WP admin CSS override)

#### 1.2.7

 * Fixed: Removed .DS_Store from repository
 * Fixed: Removed deprecated load_plugin_textdomain() call (WP 4.6+ handles this
   automatically)
 * Fixed: Added wp_cache_get/set caching to DB::get_stats() to resolve NoCaching
   sniff
 * Fixed: Suppressed false-positive phpcs warnings for internal table-name interpolation
   and production error_log usage
 * Fixed: Sanitized admin_init routing guards in Settings class
 * Fixed: Prefixed all template variables in settings-page.php to satisfy NonPrefixedVariable
   sniff
 * Changed: readme.txt Tested up to bumped to 7.0
 * Added: languages/ directory (resolves missing Domain Path header warning)

#### 1.2.6

 * Changed: Uninstall logic moved to Freemius after_uninstall hook; uninstall.php
   removed

#### 1.2.5

 * Added: Chatbots tab — SendPulse partner panel with €20 free credit offer
 * Changed: SendPulse API integration removed (coming back as standalone add-on)
 * Fixed: DB::get_stats() integer parameter now correctly passed through wpdb->prepare()
 * Fixed: Options flush hook registered unconditionally, not inside is_admin() gate
 * Performance: Options static cache eliminates repeated get_option() calls per 
   request

 * Fixed: `{source}` placeholder now correctly populated in deferred shutdown messages
 * Fixed: SendPulse transients fully removed on uninstall
 * Fixed: Namespace fatal error on activation resolved
 * Changed: Chart.js bundled locally (removed CDN dependency)

 * Added: Freemius licensing integration
 * Added: Custom `wp_reatg_logs` table for registration analytics
 * Changed: Modernised admin UI with icon tabs and PRO badges

#### 1.2.2

 * Fixed: Namespace issue in settings view template

#### 1.2.1

 * Security: `REATG_BOT_TOKEN`, `REATG_SP_CLIENT_ID`, `REATG_SP_CLIENT_SECRET` constants
   for locking secrets in `wp-config.php`
