Telegram Channel – WordPress Microblog Sync

We strongly believe that we cannot trust media controlled by billionaires. If we use them, we should also keep a copy on our website and database. That’s why we created this Python program—to help you save everything you publish on your Telegram channel, both on your local machine and your WordPress site.

This project is designed to synchronize posts between a Telegram channel and a WordPress blog in an efficient and automated manner. It leverages a SQLite database to store and manage the posts locally, ensuring consistent tracking and preventing duplication. The synchronization process involves retrieving messages from the specified Telegram channel and publishing them as blog posts on the connected WordPress site, or vice versa, depending on the desired configuration.

To facilitate communication with the Telegram API, the project incorporates the python-telegram-bot library, a robust and widely used Python wrapper that simplifies the process of handling updates, sending messages, and managing bot interactions. This library enables the project to continuously monitor the Telegram channel for new content and automatically trigger updates to the WordPress blog accordingly.

By integrating these components, the project provides a seamless link between Telegram and WordPress, allowing content creators or administrators to maintain consistent messaging across both platforms with minimal manual intervention.
