@lolobyte
Well,

mm-error.log is empty

mm-out.log

It means there’s no error in module on installation phase or running phase.
So I have to represent your issue but it might be related your account specific. So I need your TelegramBotAPI Key to represent your issue. Without it, I can help you only limitedly.

@Sean
Is it possible to use this module to display on my mirror every time a specific telegram person posts a message? not me. another account.

@teitlebot
no, it’s just a bot for interacting in a soecific chat room. not telegram monitor.

Hi,

really good !

Works great. But, just a question, I have a Telegram’s group with another bot and the messages in this bot are not in my MM.
it’s normal ?

Best regards.

@polzy
normal. bots in telegram cannot converse with each other. It cannot be caught.

I can not get my chat id

why @Sean this question ? He stops developing
It’s me now
after if you want a @Sean response it’s not a problem :)

[bryan_1]

@Bugsounet Oh, sorry for that, I don’t know it. I’ll be glad to hear your response.
Thanks

I’ve tried linking IFTTT with TelegramBot in a group chat, before learning bots cannot converse, which is annoying.
Can I control telecast with an API or outside of telegram, then I can use IFTTT Webhooks?

@DinoDog Did you know the solution? I have the same problem…
