Only send notification when post published.

I agree with this +1,000. At the very least allow the checkbox to be toggled to on when unpublished and off when published. That way if someone wants to push an updated post they can check the box manually.

Next best is unchecked by default. That can be set in the settings area under Post to Channel > Always send to Telegram > Uncheck

Feature Request: If Published, uncheck the checkbox for publishing

I realize that the setting just sets the default in the X currently and there is nothing checked on the status of the page, but it would be easy: If status = published, uncheck box.

See: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_status

@damonsomu, in the WordPress editor (post or page) click the Options tab near the top and check the box: “Telegram Channel Options”, if you do not see that part of the editor with the checkbox.

@damonsomu
workaround for this
open /wp-content/plugins/telegram-for-wp/functions.php

find function twp_post_published
line 423

twp_post_published ( $ID, $post, $pattern, $thumb_method, $twp_img_id, $twp_file_id ) {
	global $wpdb;
	global $table_name;
	global $tdata;

and add new line after global $tdata;

 if ($post->post_status == "publish" && $post->post_modified_gmt == $post->post_date_gmt)
      {

next go to line 616
find
//unset($_POST['twp_send_to_channel']);

add after this line

}

All done. Now plugin will send notification only when post published
