Deliver Contact Form 7 submissions to Telegram instantly via a bot.

== Description ==

This plugin lets you send Contact Form 7 messages to Telegram chats via a bot. Setup takes just a few steps:

1. Create a Telegram bot ([how to](https://core.telegram.org/bots#3-how-do-i-create-a-bot "Telegram docs")).
2. Create a bot in the plugin UI.
3. Paste the bot token into the bot form (PHP constants also available).
4. Create a channel in the plugin UI — it links your Contact Form 7 forms to Telegram chats.
5. Add users to the subscriber list by sending the <code>/cf7tg_start</code> command to your bot. To add a group, first add the bot to the group, then send <code>/cf7tg_start</code> in that group.
6. Approve or decline subscription requests on the Contact Form 7 → CF7 Telegram settings page.
7. Configure the channel: choose which forms to send messages from.
