So I’m trying to get a bot from a channel to forward its messages to my private channel. But I keep getting this message and I have no idea where to change this

I have checked both channel settings and the telegram setting.

This is the message I keep getting:

“Disable UserTransmission so bot can send files to users!”

I tried to upload a picture but for some unknown reason, Lemmy won’t let me.

      hm odd, can you tell me more ? how are you forwarding the message, are you automating or doing it manually ? are you hosting the bot yourself ? and since you couldn’t upload the image here, could you upload it postimages or similar and just link here ?

      there just isn’t information, but this is likely an issue with the bot itself.

      Edit: if you’re using the bot I think you’re using, there should be a line in config.env USER_TRANSMISSION = "False" try changing that to USER_TRANSMISSION = "True"

          it should be in config.env file. it needs to be changed on the server, you can’t do it through telegram. and sorry, I forgot to mention where it is before
