What This Rule Does
The WordPress Telegram Bot plugin allows to send an SMS to one or more mobile phone numbers when a message with specific words are sent in any group the bot is in. You can configure a series of filters, explained below.
Note: This feature demands connecting the plugin with Amazon SNS. Learn more how to do this in this guide: General Support - Enabling SMS Messages (Amazon SNS API)
SMS Example
Setting Up a Rule
- Send to phone number(s) - List all phone numbers that will receive the message. Include country code, but without the + symbol
- Good example: 123456789
- Bad example: +123456789
- Detect phrase(s) - The rule will only run if the message DOES include AT LEAST ONE of these words
- SMS message content - Message to be sent
- Sender name - Can only contain 11 characters or less. If it has more, the message will not be sent (due a restriction by Amazon). The sender name will appear in the SMS text message send to the phone number.
- Status - Set rule as active or paused
- Must not include - The rule will only run if the message DOES NOT include ANY of these words
- Must include - The rule will only run if the message DOES include ALL of these words
- Snooze for - Set a number in hours. After the rule is activated, it will "snooze" for x hours before being ready to activate again. Useful to avoid spamming
- Execute every - Execute the rule after every x times the trigger is activated. For example if detection is set to 3 the rule will be set on the following 1,4,7
- Reset Count - Click the button to set the count to 0
Keyword Conditions Summary
Within this rule, you can set three conditions involving keywords. They all work in tandem.
For example, if you have these:
- Detect phrase(s) - "Hi", "Hey", "Hello"
- Must not include - "admin", "administration"
- Must include - "help", "urgent"
The following will happen with each message:
- "Hi, I need urgent help!" - Will trigger the rule
- "Hello guys this is urgent!" - Will trigger the rule
- "Hey, this is the admin. Does anyone need help?" - Will not trigger the rule, because it has "admin"
- "Hey!" - Will not trigger the rule, because it doesn't have "help" or "urgent"
- "Admin help!" - Will not trigger the rule, because it includes "admin". Additionally, it doesn't have "Hi", "Hey" and "Hello"
