Real project · Telegram bot · Auto-posting
A Telegram bot for a niche marketplace channel: sellers create listings with photos right in the chat, the admin reviews them in a queue and the bot publishes the posts to the channel with hashtags and running numbers.
Listings for the marketplace channel arrived in the admin's private messages: photos in one message, text in another, no common format. The admin assembled every post by hand, added a hashtag, numbered it and published it.
As the channel grew this took hours every day, posts went out late and sellers kept asking whether their listing was up.
The bot walks the seller through the steps: category, photos, description, contact. The finished listing lands in a moderation queue where the admin publishes or rejects it with one button.
The bot formats the post itself, adds the category hashtag, the number and a link to the seller, shows sellers their own listings, keeps statistics and sends broadcasts to every user.
The /create_post command starts a dialogue: category, several photos, description, seller contact. The bot checks that everything is filled in and shows a preview.
The admin opens /check_posts and sees pending listings one at a time: "Post 3 of 3". Two buttons: publish or reject.
The bot assembles the post: a photo album, the category hashtag, the listing number and the overall channel number, the text and a link to the seller.
The /my_posts command shows a seller their listings and status, so there are no more "is it up yet?" questions.
/user_stats shows user activity, /broadcast sends a message to everyone who has used the bot: rules, promotions, channel news.
Several photos in one listing; the bot groups them into a media album for the channel.
Every post has a listing number and an overall channel number, so it is easy to refer to in comments.
The category becomes a hashtag, and buyers search the channel for just the things they want.
The admin sees how many listings are waiting and clears the queue in a minute.
A message to every bot user with one command, no contact export needed.
Categories and the post format are configurable, so the bot fits electronics, clothing, cars or kids' goods.
Listings have already gone through the bot and been published in the channel.
ListingsMenu commands cover the whole process, from creation to broadcasts.
CommandsOf posts are moderated before publishing: no spam in the channel.
ModerationManual formatting: the hashtag, number and seller are filled in automatically.
BusyworkTelegram Bot API with step-by-step dialogues, media groups and inline moderation buttons. Listing and user data live in the bot's own database, so statistics and broadcasts work without third-party services.
