Should Edit

What It Does

The /should_edit command allows you to decide whether messages edited in the incoming (source) chat should also be edited in the outgoing (target) chat. You can toggle this setting between YES (edit in outgoing) or NO (don’t edit in outgoing).

Prerequisite

• Incoming and Outgoing Chats Configured: Ensure that both incoming and outgoing chats are set up using the /incoming and /outgoing commands. Without these, there will be no messages to sync edits with.

This feature is available in the Basic Plan and above.

How to Use It

• Current Configuration:

  1. When you send the /should_edit command, the bot will display your current configuration (either YES or NO).

     
• Toggle the Setting:

  1. You will see a button that allows you to invert the setting.

     • Clicking the button changes YES to NO or vice versa.

     • Example: If your current setting is YES (edit messages in the outgoing chat), clicking the button will change it to NO (don’t edit).

Real-Life Use Cases

• Message Consistency: Automatically keep outgoing chats updated if there are important edits in the incoming chat, ensuring both chats remain synchronized.

• Content Correction: If a mistake is corrected in the incoming chat (e.g., a typo or misinformation), the outgoing chat will reflect the corrected version.

• Partial Sync: If you prefer manual updates in the outgoing chat, leave this setting on NO and manage edits independently.
