Receivers Settings Block

Here you define where entries from this source will be forwarded. By default, all messages are sent to the chat with the bot. To change this, disable the "To bot chat" toggle and select other available chats or groups.

INFO

If all receivers are disabled and batch forwarding is not set up, the source becomes inactive and no entries will be retrieved from it.

If the source participates in batch forwarding, its status is displayed here and there is a link to settings. You can quickly change parameters or disable participation in batch forwarding.

Start-Stop Phrases Settings Block

Start-stop phrases are the main tool for filtering messages. With them, you receive only the information you need and exclude unnecessary content.

How to add a phrase:

  1. Enter the text in the field and click "Send".
  2. Choose the addition mode:
    • Regular (text) — matches exact text, case-insensitive;
    • Regular expression (RegEx) — for flexible pattern-based filtering.

INFO

Switch the mode by clicking the left part of the input field.

Limitations:

  • Minimum 3 characters, maximum 35;
  • For regular expressions—no complex constructs (repetitions, cycles, etc.);
  • The number of phrases depends on your profile.

Stop phrases have priority: if at least one is found in the message text, it will not appear in your feed.

INFO

Stop phrases always take precedence over start phrases.

ATTENTION

If the message does not contain text (for example, only an image or video), stop phrases are not applied.

Start phrases: if the message text contains at least one start phrase, the entry will be delivered to you, unless any stop phrase matched.

INFO

Start phrases only work if there are no stop phrase matches.

Alternative Way to Add Phrases

In the Telegram chat where forwarding is set up, select a message forwarded by the bot and highlight the desired text (e.g., "Advertisement"). Telegram will offer to quote. Then type stop or start in the chat field and send—the phrase will be added automatically.
