how to make the bot reply to quotes in a group?

[kamil-malinski]

Hi!

I have disabled privacy mode and put "@botName" to "GROUP_TRIGGER_KEYWORD". This works as intended: the bot only replies to messages starting with "@botName".

Additionally I would like the bot to reply to replies to its own messages (when somebody quotes the bot's message). How can I achieve that?

Thanks!

Cheers

Hi @kamil-malinski! Good idea, it should be enough to replace these lines:

chatgpt-telegram-bot/bot/telegram_bot.py

Lines 298 to 299 in 7e6720f

	logging.warning('Message does not start with trigger keyword, ignoring...')
	return

with:

if update.message.reply_to_message and update.message.reply_to_message.from_user.id == context.bot.id:
    logging.info('Message is a reply to the bot, allowing...')
else:
    logging.warning('Message does not start with trigger keyword, ignoring...')
    return

Let me know if it works and i'll merge this!
