Choose Manual or Auto captions

Decide whether a Script media caption is sent exactly as written or created for the current conversation at delivery time.

Overview

Caption mode is an explicit choice on each media step. Manual preserves client-authored copy exactly. Auto lets Telestars create a short caption grounded in the fan message, creator voice, selected media, language, and price at the moment of delivery.

  • Choose the correct caption ownership for every media step.
  • Keep Manual copy verbatim when exact wording matters.
  • Use Auto for conversation-aware and language-aware captions.

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

  1. Open a media step and locate its caption mode.
  2. Choose Manual when the configured text must be sent exactly as saved.
  3. Choose Auto when the caption should adapt to the current fan conversation and target language.
  4. Confirm the selected media has reliable context, type, count, free or paid state, and price where applicable.
  5. Run a live delivery test and confirm the caption is attached to the media rather than duplicated as a separate chat reply.

How it works

These are the product rules and states that matter for this workflow.

What to knowTelestars behavior
ManualThe saved step text is delivered verbatim and is not rewritten or automatically translated.
AutoThe delivery-time caption is grounded in the current conversation and actual selected media.
AttachmentOne or more short Auto caption bubbles are preserved in order inside one Telegram media caption.
Empty resultIf no usable Auto caption is produced, the media step stays pending instead of sending without its required caption.

Verify the result

  • Confirm the Script is active, ordered correctly, and ready for its selected selling path.
  • Run a real conversation through the minimum, delivery, and next-state transition.
  • Verify every delivered price, caption, media item, and purchase state matches the saved configuration.

Troubleshooting

If you see thisWhat to check
A Manual caption uses the wrong languageEdit the saved copy or switch that step to Auto; Manual text is intentionally preserved verbatim.
An Auto caption is too genericImprove the media context and confirm the correct asset, fan message, and Voice Preset are present.
The caption appeared twiceConfirm the generated text was consumed as the attached caption and not configured again as a separate follow-up.

Best practice

Use Manual for exact campaign copy and Auto when live conversation fit is more important than fixed wording.
