This plugin connects a Telegram bot to your WordPress site to support\nthe community or group you manage:<\/p>\n\n
wp-config.php<\/code>, and is managed from a\nscreen in the WordPress admin, with no loose JSON files.<\/li>\n- If a user is not validated, the bot does not reply at all -except\nfor a single private notice the first time they write- so no\ninformation is exposed and no spam is generated.<\/li>\n
- In a group, the bot only replies if it is mentioned (@bot username,\nreplying to one of its messages, or with a command directed at it).\nIn private chats it always replies, to already validated users.<\/li>\n
- Includes configurable general commands:
\/reglas<\/code>, \/horario<\/code>,\n \/anuncios, \/recursos<\/code>, \/ayuda<\/code>, \/misdatos<\/code> -all editable from\nthe WordPress admin, without touching code.<\/li>\n- Includes moderation commands for administrators, private chat only:\n \/validar,
\/invalidar<\/code>, \/listar<\/code>, \/anunciar<\/code>, \/stats<\/code>.<\/li>\n- Integrates an Ollama (conversational AI) client that is already\nbuilt but disabled by default: once your Ollama server is ready,\njust enable the checkbox and set the URL\/model in Settings. Until\nthen the bot replies with a notice instead of failing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
Use cases<\/h4>\n\n
Built for any Telegram community that needs to moderate access and\nautomate replies: study groups, communities of practice, work teams,\nclubs or product support.<\/p>\n\n
External services<\/h3>\n\n
This plugin connects to the following external services to work:<\/p>\n\n
\n- Telegram Bot API<\/strong> (
https:\/\/api.telegram.org<\/code>) - required for the\nbot to function. The plugin sends your bot token and the text\nmessages exchanged with Telegram users (inbound and outbound) so it\ncan receive and reply to messages via webhook. Subject to Telegram's\nTerms of Service<\/a> and\nPrivacy Policy<\/a>.<\/li>\n- Ollama<\/strong> (URL you configure, typically your own server) - optional\nand disabled by default. If you enable it, the text of messages from\nvalidated users is sent to the URL you configure to generate an AI\nreply. No information is sent to any third-party server other than\nthe one you specify in Settings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
Requirements<\/h4>\n\n\n- WordPress 5.8 or higher.<\/li>\n
- PHP 7.4 or higher, with the
openssl<\/code> extension enabled.<\/li>\n- A site with valid HTTPS (Telegram does not accept webhooks over\n http:\/\/).<\/li>\n
- A bot created with @BotFather on Telegram.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n
\n- Upload the full plugin folder to
wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code>, or zip its\ncontents and use Plugins -> Add New -> Upload Plugin<\/strong> from the\nWordPress admin.<\/li>\n- Activate \"WVDevel Community Assistant for Telegram\" in Plugins<\/strong>.\nOn activation, the required database tables and a random webhook\nsecret are created automatically.<\/li>\n
- Go to Bot Telegram -> Ajustes<\/strong> (Settings):\n\n
\n- Paste the bot token (obtained from @BotFather) and save the\nsettings. It is encrypted before being saved.<\/li>\n
- Click \"Configurar Webhook\" to register your site with Telegram.<\/li>\n
- Add the group ID under \"Grupos permitidos\" and your own Telegram\nID under \"IDs de administradores\".<\/li>\n
- Edit the
\/reglas<\/code>, \/horario<\/code>, \/anuncios<\/code> and \/recursos<\/code> texts\nwith your community's actual content.<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/li>\n- Go to Bot Telegram -> Usuarios validados<\/strong> and register each\nmember (Telegram ID, username, name and access code). You can also\ndo this from Telegram with
\/validar [id] [codigo] [usuario]\n[nombre]<\/code> in a private chat with the bot, once your ID is in the\nadministrators list.<\/li>\n- (Optional, later) Enable Ollama in Settings once your server is\nrunning, providing its URL and the model to use.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
\nDo I need Ollama running to use the plugin?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo. The Ollama client is disabled by default. While it is off, the\nbot still validates users and replies to the configured commands\n(\/reglas<\/code>, \/horario<\/code>, etc.); only free-form natural language\nquestions get a notice that AI is not configured yet.<\/p><\/dd>\nHow do I get the numeric ID of the Telegram group?<\/h3><\/dt>\nForward any message from the group to a bot such as @userinfobot, or\ncheck the first message the group sends to the bot after configuring\nthe webhook (it appears in the WordPress logs if something fails).<\/p><\/dd>\n
Is it safe to store members' access codes in the database?<\/h3><\/dt>\nThe access code and the bot token are encrypted with AES-256-GCM\n(authenticated encryption) using the AUTH_KEY<\/code> \/ SECURE_AUTH_KEY<\/code>\nkeys from your own wp-config.php<\/code> before being saved. They are never\nstored in plain text or in loose files.<\/p><\/dd>\nDoes the bot reply to every message in the group?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo. In a group it only replies if it is mentioned directly (@bot\nusername, replying to one of its messages, or with a command directed\nat it). Any other message in the group is completely ignored.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Can I have more than one administrator?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes, add the Telegram IDs separated by commas under \"IDs de\nadministradores\" in Settings.<\/p><\/dd>\n
What happens if I deactivate the plugin?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNothing is deleted: the webhook, the settings and the validated users\nare kept. They are only removed completely if you use\nPlugins -> Delete<\/strong>, which runs the definitive cleanup of tables and\nsettings.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n1.0.0<\/h4>\n\n\n- Initial release: encrypted user validation (AES-256-GCM), REST\nwebhook protected with a secret_token, configurable general\ncommands, private moderation commands, a message log screen with\nsearch and per-conversation deletion, an administrators screen, a\nbroadcast screen for sending messages\/attachments to validated\nusers and\/or allowed groups, and an Ollama client ready to be\nenabled.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","raw_excerpt":"A configurable Telegram bot for any community or group: validates members, replies only when mentioned, and optionally integrates with Ollama.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/354794","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=354794"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/wvdevel"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=354794"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=354794"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=354794"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=354794"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=354794"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=354794"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
