Goto Appearance > Widgets and click/drag WP Telegram Login and place it where you want it to be.
Alternatively, you can use the below shortcode.
Inside page or post content:
[wptelegram-login button_style="large" show_user_photo="1" corner_radius="15" show_if_user_is="logged_in"]
Inside the theme templates
<?php
if ( function_exists( 'wptelegram_login' ) ) {
$args = array(
// 'show_user_photo' => true,
// 'corner_radius' => 15,
// 'button_style' => 'large',
// 'show_if_user_is' => 'logged_out',
);
wptelegram_login( $args );
}
?>
or
<?php echo do_shortcode( '[wptelegram-login button_style="small" show_user_photo="0" show_if_user_is="logged_in"]' ); ?>
The plugin can also handle the data sent by the Telegram Web App. Simply send window.Telegram.WebApp.initData
query string to this URL:
http://<your-website.com>/?action=wptelegram_login&source=WebAppData
The final URL might look like this:
http://<your-website.com>/?action=wptelegram_login&source=WebAppData&query_id=XXXX&user=XXXX&auth_date=XXXX&hash=XXXX
The plugin will:
- Validate the data for you
- Create a user account for the user if it doesn't exist
- Login the user to the website in the context of your Web App.
Note: You need to use the same bot token for both the plugin and the Web App.
Development takes place in our Github monorepo, and all contributions welcome.

Automatic installation is the easiest way -- WordPress will handle the file transfer, and you won’t need to leave your web browser. To do an automatic install of the plugin:
- Log in to your WordPress dashboard
- Navigate to the Plugins menu, and click "Add New"
- In the search field type "wptelegram-login" and hit Enter
- Locate the plugin in the list of search results
- Click on "Install Now" and wait for the installation to complete
- Click on "Activate"
Manual installation method requires downloading the plugin and uploading it to your web server via your favorite FTP application. The official WordPress documentation contains instructions on how to do this here.
Automatic updates should work smoothly, but we still recommend you back up your site.
