Custom Status Notifications
What It Is
When an order status changes in the dashboard or payment is confirmed, your bot can automatically dispatch a branded status update straight to the customer's chat thread.
In Botconsole, notification copy is fully customizable on a per-status and per-platform basis (Telegram, Web Widget, WhatsApp, SMS).
Configuring Notification Templates
Navigate to Products → Settings → Status Templates.
For each lifecycle status:
- New Order
- Processing
- Paid
- Delivered
- Cancelled
You can:
- Enable or disable automatic dispatch for that specific status.
- Define dedicated copy tailored to each communication platform.
- Insert dynamic placeholders that resolve to real-time order and buyer data.
Channel-Specific Customization
Different messaging channels have different presentation strengths and constraints:
- Telegram: supports bold and italic formatting, action buttons, and rich emoji styling.
- Web Widget: concise, clean notification popups on your website.
- WhatsApp: structured conversational messages without complex markup.
- SMS: concise text snippets designed to fit standard 160-character segment limits.
If no channel-specific template is defined, the bot uses its default fallback message.
Dynamic Placeholders
The following macro variables are substituted with actual order data before the message is sent:
| Placeholder | Replaced With | Example |
