<p>Email is not a reliable operational channel for lead intake. Even when Contact Form 7 reports “mail sent”, real-world delivery can fail: messages may land in spam, be blocked by SMTP/DMARC rules, get throttled, or simply never reach the inbox in time. The result is the worst-case scenario: <strong>a lead is submitted, but nobody sees it</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>AroksDS Submission Alerts for Contact Form 7 to Telegram</strong> creates a second, independent delivery path: every successful form submission can generate an instant Telegram notification in a shared team space (group, private chat, or a forum topic). This gives you a practical “backup channel” so leads are not lost when email delivery is unreliable.</p>
<h4>Why this plugin is useful</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Backup channel to email</strong>: reduce lost leads caused by spam filtering or mail delivery issues.</li>
<li><strong>Shared visibility for managers</strong>: send to a single Telegram group used by everyone who handles leads.</li>
<li><strong>Faster response time (SLA)</strong>: instant notifications help you respond while the user is still “hot”.</li>
<li><strong>Less human error</strong>: no need to manually check mailboxes or WordPress admin panels.</li>
<li><strong>Simple triage</strong>: route different forms to different chats/topics (sales vs support vs hiring).</li>
<li><strong>Operational continuity</strong>: even if your SMTP provider or mail settings break, Telegram alerts can still arrive.</li>
<li><strong>Privacy control</strong>: choose what fields are included (Allowed/Excluded fields) and keep templates minimal.</li>
<li><strong>Troubleshooting</strong>: built-in test tool + lightweight logs for quick diagnosis.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Key features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Success-only trigger</strong>: sends only on Contact Form 7 <code>wpcf7_mail_sent</code> (this WordPress.org edition intentionally avoids any “before send” triggers).</li>
<li><strong>Global defaults + per-form rules</strong>: Form ID <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Chat ID <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> optional Message Thread ID <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Template <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Allowed/Excluded fields.</li>
<li><strong>Template placeholders</strong>: <code>{field-name}</code>, <code>{form_id}</code>, <code>{form_title}</code>, <code>{page_url}</code>, <code>{date}</code>, <code>{time}</code>, <code>{all_fields}</code>.</li>
<li><strong>Parse modes</strong>: Plain, HTML, MarkdownV2 (placeholder values are escaped for safety).</li>
<li><strong>Logs</strong>: stores last 100 entries (errors always; successes only when Debug Logs are enabled).</li>
<li><strong>Tools</strong>: send a test message from wp-admin.</li>
<li><strong>No tracking / telemetry</strong>: no external calls except Telegram Bot API.</li>
</ul>
<h4>What this plugin does NOT do (to avoid misunderstandings)</h4>
<ul>
<li>It sends <strong>text messages only</strong> via Telegram Bot API <code>sendMessage</code> (no attachments/files).</li>
<li>It is not a CRM and does not store submissions as leads in WordPress.</li>
<li>It does not replace email delivery — it <strong>adds a duplicate channel</strong> for operational safety.</li>
</ul>
<h4>External services</h4>
<p>This plugin connects to the Telegram Bot API to send messages.</p>
