Improvements: 💥
- bot will now auto disable twitter sharing option in all your combinations, if your Twitter account gets detected by twitter as spam or needs human verification

Info: Twitter disables account api access if you send too many posts in short period of time or repeated posts with same content.

TIP: Make sure to not make your combinations too broad by making appropriate use of filters like blacklist and whitelist so as to send less posts to Twitter and stay safe from any possible limitations imposed by twitter.

Improvements: 💥
- you can now filter content from specific authors in supergroups

Q: How to use Author filter?
A: You can blacklist or whitelist one or more authors in any supergroup.

1. To apply author filter, first create a combination as you normally do.
2. To blacklist an author go to Blacklist option inside Combination configuration screen and send the author chat_id (username in case of discord) in following format:
(we will use 123456 as author chat_id in this example)

author:123456

In similar way you can whitelist author using Whitelist option.

* If you blacklist authors, your combination will not process any message sent by those authors.

* If you whitelist an author (or multiple authors), your combination will only send messages sent by whitelisted authors. Any message by non whitelisted author will be ignored.

Q: How to find the chat_id of a telegram user?
A: You can obtain any telegram user chat_id by forwarding their message to @getidsbot

We just released a simple watermark bot (more like a watermark tester bot)

@ImageDecorBot

You can send command to test what the outcome will look like and then copy paste the final commands to Conflux or Affilio to watermarkify your images on the fly.
