Bot command for remove topics associations

Hope you could add docker for this repository.

I installed this on a Raspberry Pi 4 and set up a service to run it. Sometimes, the application asks for the QR code again, but it's hard to notice since I wasn't checking the service, and I have no way to do so without connecting to the Raspberry Pi to check if the service is asking for the QR code.

Is it possible to add a notification on the Telegram side when WhatsApp isn't authenticated correctly to make it more noticeable?

Thanks in advance for your great job!

I always get this message in the #general thread of my group when anything inside of WA happens:

I seem to be unable to get the bot to relay any messages or reactions to my Telegram group. I might have messed up the settings on the Telegram side though. Tried everything in Group permissions, made the bot admin, turned privacy mode off on the bot and rejoined it - nothing helps. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Now that WhatsApp have polls too, currently when a poll is sent from whatsapp nothing is received on telegram side

Use the API to send a button through the bot for selecting/creating the target chat on Telegram during initial setup

Is it possible that when using the /send command it will create a new topic with the message if thread not exist or send the message to the existing topic in telegram ?

After running the go build command, the compilation stops with the following messages:

I appreciate any help.

Hey,

is it possible to forward Telegram Group Messages/Images to WhatsApp Groups?

Add the ability to use i18n. To add multiple languages

Edit: WA bot messages with response buttons do not get forwarded to telegram

Disappear timer will have to be stored locally, and then while sending the message, will have to add the ephemeral setting.

Able to send message or react to telegram when receiver react to messages on WhatsApp

Whenever I am messaging actively with someone, it gets a bit annoying to see the “Successfully sent” confirmations. I am fine with them being there so I can undo a message if I screw up, but maybe these should be sent out silently, so my phone doesn't keep ringing whenever I chat on PC.

Currently, the Document naming is very inconsistent on both platforms. The file names do not have correct extensions as displayed in the app or which extension it had while uploading. Some testing will have to be done to fix the naming issue, as it causes the forwarded document names to be of the wrong extension, which prevents them from being opened in appropriate applications especially on mobile devices

Overall the experience of interacting with people who use WhatsApp through watgbridge seems almost flawless, barring one thing: it appears as if I am using some kind of stealth mode (messages are not marked as read, "last seen" timestamp is not being updated)

This is due to a limitation of the Bot API that does not allow receiving "message read" or "presence" events.

However, if we send a message to a contact, we can safely say that we've seen a message and we did open the messenger.
I would propose marking all unread messages in a chat as read and sending presence updates when we send a message there.

As this is not exactly a clean solution, I would make it configurable.

Relevant whatsmeow methods:

• https://pkg.go.dev/go.mau.fi/whatsmeow#Client.SendPresence
• https://pkg.go.dev/go.mau.fi/whatsmeow#Client.MarkRead

Hello.

I've just tried to build your application.
It seems to compile fine on Linux Debian 12 (with just a deprecation warning).
But in your installation instructions, you wrote :

Copy sample_config.yaml to config.yaml and fill the values, there are comments to help you.

In the config.yaml file, I have :

telegram:
  bot_token: 186779
  #api_url: http://localhost:8082 # Uncomment if you have a local bot API server running (for bypassing file size limits)
  self_hosted_api: false
  owner_id: 704338780
  sudo_users_id:
    - 704338780
  target_chat_id: -100423424      # This is the chat where messages will be forwarded
  skip_video_stickers: false      # Setting this as true will stop trying to convert telegram video stickers to webp and sending them
  skip_setting_commands: false    # This will not show you list of commands when you start typing / in telegram

… with several numeric values which certainly don't belong to me.

Where am I expected to find the values to put instead?
There are no comments to help me about that.
The only one that I may have found is the bot_token, but still, it doesn't looks like a 6 digits value.

And I suppose that the WhatsApp part may have values that I will have to find, too.

Gingko.

Currently, all types of stickers are not supported. Support for them will need some tinkering to be done

From WhatsApp side

• Animated stickers (WebP) are not supported

From Telegram side

• Video stickers are not supported

hello there can u add support to disapl contact id in telegram by thier contact name instead of phone number also instead of /send command can u make it like sending a message in topic will send the message to the user without using any command

replies to both statuses and messages do not have the reference preview

Right now messages containing an URL sent through watgbridge do not have the preview generated from HTML tags <meta property="og:image"> like they do if you use the official client.

For feature parity, they probably should.

add nickname on inline button while receiving (sticker, vCard, poll, Location) from WhatsApp or maybe to all kind of msgs even better, so it's gonna be like this:

Messages is here and then button bellow -> [nickname [phone]](https://wa.me/[email protected])

So the messages wont be spammy and looks clearer.
