Proxy

Hello!
We have a few servers hosted in Russia, and Russia blocks now Telegram; that means that our servers cannot connect to the API and then cannot post our new articles. So far we used another extension that posts to FB, Twitter, VK etc but so it cannot post to Telegram.
I contacted them to know if they could ask a proxy option, no reply…

In your extension, is there a way to connect to Telegram through a proxy (Socks5, with login and password)? Or would you think adding it?

Thank you!

Hello,
It’s already hidden there in the plugin. 😉

Looks great 🙂 I added the line in my theme’s function.php,
Entered the Bot token in your plugin’s settings form,
Clicked on “Test Token”,
And got “Test result: Error: Could not connect”

The token is good, it is the one working on the other extension… Seems to be a connection problem, so…

The tests are actually sent from the browser, not from your server. So it uses your local internet connection. So, it means that your ISP blocks Telegram as well. Well, in that case you can the same proxy in your browser as well.

Well I do not understand: Sure, my ISP is blockin Telegram!
But I want use the plugin from the server anyway (whose ISP also block Telegram), not from my browser..

Everything except from those two tests is done by server. You don’t really need to enter the proxy in the browser after completing the tests

Well, I filled all through Tor, saved the BOT and yes, the test passed positively 🙂

But when Saving the parameters, other error:

http_request_failed cURL error 7: Failed to connect to 2001:XXX:XXX:XXXX::9: Network is unreachable

(XXX are some data)

Make sure that the proxy is working and the details entered are correct.

There is another easy solution though, use Google Script instead of proxy.

Hum but I am not asked to enter any proxy detail… Where should it be?!

Google API I don’t want to use, we avoid Google 🙂
