Messages of the RSS bot don't get bridged to telegram

[maeries]

When the "build in" RSS bot in the matrix room posts something that message will not appear in the relayed telegram group

How to reproduce

1. Setup mautrix telegram with bridge_notices.default:false (which is the default configuration)
2. Relay a room to a telegram group
3. setup the RSS bot in the Matrix room
4. change the configuration to bridge_notices.default:true (!tg config default shows that the change was successful)
5. Subscribe to an RSS feed using the bot and wait until something new is posted in that feed

What I expect

The message from the RSS bot that notifies about a new post in the RSS feed should show up in Telegram

What actually happens

The message from the RSS bot appears in Matrix, but not in Telegram

Additional Info

• Additionally issuing !tg config set bridge_notices.default true does not help either
• Using t2bot.io works, but using my selfhosted bot does not
• There also is t2bot.io's Discord bridge in the matrix room and it's messages get bridged over to telegram

System info

• Homeserver and bot running via docker-compose
• Docker version 20.10.2, build 2291f61
• docker-compose version 1.27.4, build 40524192
• Synapse version 1.26.0
• mautrix-telegram 0.9.0+dev.db41c8d8

To try to work around the issue I created a new Matrix room and bridged that to the same telegram group as before, but the bot still doesn't bridge messages of the RSS bot

On telegram a bot can't see messages from a bot.

Sry that I didn't make it more clear, but the RSS bot I'm speaking of is a Matrix bot, not a telegram bot. So that can't be the issue here.

I don't think so, as in your screenshot I can see the message from the RSS bot appear in Telegram

[JuniorJPDJ]

Can you show screenshots of your behaviour?

[maeries]

On the left, in Element, you can see a message from the RSS bot which is missing on the right side in Telegram

Can you post event json?

[maeries]

{
  "content": {
    "body": "Podcast: TEST ( https://podcast.xxx.com/2021/02/15/test/ )",
    "format": "org.matrix.custom.html",
    "formatted_body": "<strong>Podcast</strong>:<br><a href=\"https://podcast.xxx.com/2021/02/15/test/\"><strong>TEST</strong></a>",
    "msgtype": "m.notice"
  },
  "origin_server_ts": 1613415000515,
  "sender": "@_neb_rssbot_=40marius=3amatrix.xxx.com:matrix.org",
  "type": "m.room.message",
  "unsigned": {
    "age": 102355526
  },
  "event_id": "$LRiJ1Vh7F6MqyrG4M6LGpvbi0bzUDr7-nlIaJ0veGmI",
  "room_id": "!ucWcbpAjWIngMuXtbb:matrix.xxx.com"
}

I hope that's what the event json is

It's probably not bridged as it's msgtype: m.notice. Could you check if you have enabled bridge_notices in your config?

[maeries]

I've set

    bridge_notices:
        # Whether or not Matrix bot messages (type m.notice) should be bridged.
        default: true
        # List of user IDs for whom the previous flag is flipped.
        # e.g. if bridge_notices.default is false, notices from other users will not be bridged, but
        #      notices from users listed here will be bridged.
        exceptions:

Though, I didn't set it that way right from the beginning so maybe the problem is that the bridge initially set bridge_notices:default:false and now fails to change it afterwards. On the other hand !tg config defaults also says bridge_notices: default: true

[JuniorJPDJ]

Check what is it set on group, as afaik it can be overwritten in per-group basics.

[maeries]

i issued !tg config set bridge_notices.default true some time ago in the room already and !tg config view shows

1 bridge_notices:
2     default: true
3

So I guess the per-room config is also set to true?

[JuniorJPDJ]

That's true.
