About this plugin
PublicaCubo turns Telegram messages (photo + text) and CSV rows into WordPress posts, with all the configuration inside each site’s admin panel. It does not rely on Zapier or Make: the plugin talks directly to the Telegram API.
Send a message with a photo and text to your Telegram bot and the post appears, with the photo as the featured image. You can also bulk-import posts from a CSV file.
Features (free)
- Telegram: send a photo with text to your bot and a post is created, with the photo as the featured image.
- Secure webhook with a secret token and an allowlist of authorized chats.
- Deduplication: it never publishes the same message twice.
- CSV import from the admin panel (columns: title, content, category, image, status).
- Category, author and status (draft or publish) are configurable, with an independent status per source.
- Email notifications when a post is created or when an error happens.
- Event and error log.
Pro version (separate)
A separate Pro version adds: multi-image galleries (Telegram albums and several image columns), automatic import from a Google Sheet published as CSV via WP-Cron, and a dynamic category by hashtag. The free version works fully on its own. ar/publicacubo
