Invite a friend to telegram channel - telegram

Is it possible to have an “inline button” on a channel that says “invite a friend” that forwards the private channel URL to friends on the channel. The idea is to make the “invitation process” for users to invite their friends much easier.

Yes . Go to channel and then click on manage channel then click on channel type and you will see a pop-up that you can select your channel type as Public Channel or Private Channel .
In the below of the form you can see Invite link. So you can copy it and give it to your friends or have an "Join channel" button with that refer to that link.
Here is a link that you can read more about URL buttons and here is API link

Unable to join Telegram channel after Using Banchatmember

I'm using a telegram bot to maintain a private group, where I kick the user accordingly.
It works great but then comes this issue, When I use bot.ban_chat_member(user_id, chat_id) or bot.kick_chat_member(user_id, chat_id) to remove a user from the chat I can't add the user back again.
After I use bot.unban_chat_member(chat_id, user_id) and send an invite link to the user that I kicked, The user can't join the group. It shows that the channel is private and the user should wait for admin approval.
The only way allowed to join the group is by using an invite link generated by the bot.
What is the issue? How can I fix it? I can't afford anything else except the invite link generated by the bot.

Invite own contact to join Telegram public channel as channel itself

A Telegram public channel that I manage has exceeded the number of subscribers beyond which I can manually add contacts to it.
Is it possible to invite people in my contact lists, but have the invitation appear as coming from the channel itself, rather than from my personal profile?

Skype bot can not be added to group chat

I'm developing a bot for Skype and enabled setting that allows to add this bot to Group Chats. However, when I click to "Add People" button, I can see only the real people, but Skype Bots are hidden there (even the official ones).
There is an official doc that Skype bot can be added to the group chat as regular Skype account, but I am not able to do it.
My bot is not published, but one on one conversation works well. Also, in the private chat with Bot I can add people to conversation and thus I can create a group with this bot, but the main question is how to add the bot to the existing group chat?
On the configuration page for Skype on the dev.botframework.com site. Make sure you've enabled group messaging:
Additional information about groups on skype can be found here.
Finally I was able to add it to the group by opening Web Skype and then opening the private chat with my Bot.
Web Skype showed me a message "Add SkotBot to your contacts" which is very strange because it was already on my contact list. After clicking to this link bot is displayed on the "Add People" list.
I had the similar issues. and I try your method/suggestion above, it works!
the exact steps for other to read on (based on your suggestion)
1. from Mac Client Skype, I'm using version 7.43 (241) make a 1:1 chat with my bot. (to make it appears on the chat history on web skype later)
2. login the web skype, it will appear as history/conversation on the left. Message sending is disabled. Clicking on the bot icon appears on the chat screen above, it will open the profile
3. Add the bot to contact.
4. Then the bot can be added to the existing group conversation, just like add a normal human contact.
It seems to be some bugs in the Skype ecosystem?

How to add "subscribe button" in facebook messenger bot?

I need to add a button (subscription ) in my messenger bot through which users can subscribe. and after that bot will automatically send latest post to the users at the specific time.
I was going through documentation but i am unable to find any proper documentation for it.
Can anybody please help regarding that?
Facebook don't provide a mechanism to manage subscriptions. It's up to you as a developer to choose how to implement this - for example using a button with a payload to confirm that the user wants to opt in.
You could perhaps put an Opt Out option in your persistent menu and listen for the relevant payload and unsubscribe the user.
Facebook have published some documentation about this, explaining how they expect subscription messaging to be triggered:
Person sends a message to a business or clicks on a call to action button within Messenger to request subscription messaging
Person requests subscription messaging from a business via a Send to Messenger plugin
Person signs up for SMS alerts
See the full page of documentation at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/policy-overview#messaging_types for more details on their expectation

Stream telegram channel contents to wordpress

I want to show my telegram channel contents in my wordpress website.
Is any way exist for stream telegram channel contents to my wordpress?
It is possible with Telegram Bot API. Basic idea:
Create a bot that can post to your channel;
Create an interaction layer between your site and the bot (for example, REST API);
Post something via your bot;
As soon as you post, your bot should send the post to both channel and website.
Also this can be done with the console client (channel_history command).
You can use this plugin : 'TelegramsChannelToWP'
first you must get API-key from :
http://en.tele-wall.ir/api/register/
then enter your site and your favorite channel
install plugin TelegramsChannelToWp
in setting page enter api-key and channel's username
add TelegramsChannelToWp widget.
Finish

You can take a look at WP Telegram. It works very well from WP to telegram; moreover, it provides widget to show telegram channel or group on WP.
