Complete guide to Greetings module commands and features

👋 Greetings Commands

Welcome new members to your groups or say Goodbye after they leave!

Admin Commands: × /setwelcome <reply/text>: Sets welcome text for group. × /welcome <yes/no/on/off/noformat>: With no argument, shows the welcome settings and a preview of the welcome message. on/off enables or disables welcome; noformat shows the preview with placeholders unfilled and button codes instead of buttons. × /resetwelcome: Resets the welcome message to default. × /setgoodbye <reply/text>: Sets goodbye text for group. × /goodbye <yes/no/on/off/noformat>: With no argument, shows the goodbye settings and a preview of the goodbye message. on/off enables or disables goodbye; noformat shows the preview with placeholders unfilled and button codes instead of buttons. × /resetgoodbye: Resets the goodbye message to default. × /cleanservice <yes/no/on/off>: Delete join and leave service messages, such as the ‘x joined the group’ notification. × /cleanwelcome <yes/no/on/off>: Delete the old welcome message, whenever a new member joins. × /cleangoodbye <yes/no/on/off>: Delete the old goodbye message, whenever a member leaves. × /autoapprove <yes/no/on/off>: Automatically approve chat join requests.

Captcha Integration When Captcha module is enabled:

New members are muted upon joining
Captcha challenge sent instead of welcome
After verification, welcome message is sent
Failed verification applies captcha action

Join Requests When the group requires admin approval to join and /autoapprove is off, the bot posts each join request in the group with the user’s name and ID and Approve, Decline and Ban buttons. Only group admins can use them:

Approve / Decline: both the admin and the bot need the Invite Users permission.
Ban: both the admin and the bot need Invite Users and Ban Users. Ban bans the user and declines the request.

After an admin acts, the message is edited to show the result (or that the request was already handled or withdrawn). With Redis available, a repeat request from the same user within 5 minutes is not posted again. When /autoapprove is on, requests are approved immediately and no message is posted.

Preview without placeholders: Append noformat to /welcome or /goodbye (e.g., /welcome noformat) to preview the stored message with {placeholders} left unfilled and buttons shown as [text](buttonurl://…) codes instead of a keyboard. Text formatting (bold, links, etc.) still renders. Admin only, like the plain view.
