Overview
Post-media messages are short client-authored follow-ups tied to one delivered step. They can reinforce the current moment, but they do not create another paid offer or become a separate conversation mode.
- Add one or two timed follow-ups to a Script step.
- Attach one free photo, video, or voice item when useful.
- Control whether reply or purchase cancels each follow-up.
Before you start
- Select the bot and creator that will use the Script.
- Prepare usable media in Gallery before adding media-based steps.
- Decide whether the bot sells Telegram paid media or uses a configured Sell Link path.
Step by step
- Open the Script step that should own the follow-up sequence.
- Add the first post-media message, write its exact text, and set its delay.
- Optionally attach one free Gallery photo, video, or voice item.
- Choose whether Fan replied and Media purchased should stop that message.
- Add at most one second message, save, and test reply and purchase branches separately.
How it works
These are the product rules and states that matter for this workflow.
| What to know | Telestars behavior |
|---|---|
| Limit | A Script step can have at most two post-media messages. |
| Attachment | Each message can include client-authored text plus one free photo, video, or voice item. |
| Default stops | Fan replied and Media purchased both default to enabled for each message. |
| No read stop | Telegram does not provide a reliable outgoing read receipt for this path, so a Read stop condition is not available. |
| Ownership | When a delayed message is configured to continue after a fan reply, the fan turn waits until that sequence finishes. |
Verify the result
- The follow-up is attached to the intended step delivery and delay.
- Reply and purchase cancel only the messages whose corresponding stop condition is enabled.
- No-Reply Auto DM does not compete with an active delayed post-media sequence.
Troubleshooting
| If you see this | What to check |
|---|---|
| A Script exists but is not used | Check that it is active, has usable steps, and meets the media or Sell Link requirements for the bot. |
| A step is due but does not send | Check media readiness, Telegram permissions, manual takeover, active follow-ups, and the current Waiting Payment state. |
| The next step appears too early | Check Transition Timing, the full conversation, and whether the exact step was legally available for this fan. |
Best practice
Launch with one fully verified Script before adding more paths, then test every delivery and purchase transition in Telegram.
