โ“ FAQ

We've collected some of the most asked questions about the bot. We'd be happy to answer your question, if you cannot find an answer to it bellow.


โš™๏ธ Main settings

Is it possible to set buttons at the bottom instead of the keyboard?

No, currently you can only set the "inline" buttons which are those attached below the messages: these buttons are aesthetically better and allow you to use many more functions.

You can put links in buttons and you can use them to call up menus and submenus, a form or even start a shop inside the bot!

I own the bot on BotFather but ModularBot doesn't recognize me as the owner

ModularBot recognizes the user who sent it the bot token as the owner of the bot.

To allow ModularBot to recognize you as the owner, copy the bot token and send it to @ModularBot.

If you don't know how to retrieve the token: go to @BotFather and send the /token command, then select your bot

How do I set the bot language for users?

Our bots are very smart, each user will see the bot's messages automatically in their own language set on Telegram or on the device.
This is applied to the start message (if it has not been customized), sending confirmation messages, Shop functions and more.

The language you can set from the settings is just the one related to management things for administrators.

Where do I find a complete list of bot commands?

Most bot features can be managed through your bot's settings.

The only commands that can be used by administrators in the bot are:

  • /admin and /unadmin โ†’ sets the user as the bot administrator

  • /ban and /unban โ†’ prohibit the user from using the bot

  • /del โ†’ delete a message previously sent to a user

Can I create a custom command in the bot?

Of course, you can do this via the Automatic replies feature.
For example, if you want to create the /help command in your bot, just create an automatic reply to that trigger: "/help"
Then set also the message that should be sent in response to that command and itโ€™s done!

I set up an automatic reply but it doesn't work, why?

You are probably testing it from an account that is a bot's administrator. Automatic replies only work for regular users.

Can I broadcast messages every day in the free version?

As much as we'd love to give you that power, it takes a lot of server juice to make it happen. In the free version, you'll have to wait 7 days before sending another message. But if you upgrade to our BASIC plan, you can broadcast every 48 hours.

I set up force join but it doesn't work, why?

You are probably already a member of all specified chats.

Can I use ModularBot to manage my Telegram Business account?

Sure, click here to see how ModularBot can be used as a chatbot with automatic replies to manage your Telegram account via Telegram Business functions.

Can I use Premium emojis in bot functions?

Yes, you can do that. The bot's owner account must have an active Telegram Premium subscription.


๐Ÿ“ฅ Feedback Module

Click here to read the complete guide about Feedback Module.

Do I need to use a public group for the Topic Mode?

Absolutely not, in fact the group should be private. In fact, in the group you will be able to view the messages sent by users in your bot and you will be able to reply to them.

Itโ€™s essential that in that group there are only the users responsible for reading and replying to user messages.

If a user edits a message sent in my bot, then I will see his edited message?

No, you will not see the edited message and the user will be advised that editing messages is not supported.

In this way the integrity of messages sent by users is always guaranteed, a user cannot alter a previously sent message.

If a user deletes a message sent in my bot, will it be deleted for me too?

No, the message will remain intact on your side.

In this way the integrity of messages sent by users is always guaranteed, a user cannot alter a previously sent message.

If I edit a message I sent to a user, will the user see the new message?

Yes, the message will also be edited for the user, who will see it only in the new way. Please watch the video bellow the next question to find out how easy it is!

Can I delete messages which will be deleted on the users' side too?

Yea indeedy! Just reply with /del to the message you want to delete and it'll be gone faster than my dreams of becoming a rock star.

When I reply to messages using Telegram's Reply feature, does the user see that?

Short and good answer: Yes, replies are also displayed as such on the user side.

How can I allow other users to receive and respond to user messages?

If you use Topic Mode, any user in the group will be able to read and reply to messages.

If you don't use Topic Mode, only users who are set as bot administrators will be able to receive and reply to messages.

Can I send messages with buttons to just one user or in just one topic?

Yes, you can. To do this, create a template in which you set your message with the button and send the command that retrieves this template in the chat with the user. Also, you can of course link a Form as a Button in this template.
