When a keyword is outdated in your Telegram group — old pricing, wrong link, seasonal promo — remove it with /unreply. Only group administrators can delete automatic replies in @DoublegramScribeBot.
Step-by-step
- Open the group where @DoublegramScribeBot is active.
- Send:
/unreply keyword— use the exact trigger word you set with/reply.
Example:/unreply rules - Scribe confirms: ✅ Custom reply "rules" deleted.
You do not need to reply to a message for /unreply — just send the command with the keyword.
What gets deleted
- The keyword trigger — members typing that word no longer get a response
- Media files stored for that reply — Scribe removes downloaded files from its storage
- The database entry for that trigger in this group
Other keywords and their saved content remain untouched.
Case-insensitive matching
Keywords are stored lowercase. /unreply Rules and /unreply rules both target the same trigger.
Common errors
| Message | Fix |
|---|---|
| Only administrators can delete custom replies | Ask a group admin |
| Specify the command to delete | Include the keyword: /unreply faq |
| No reply found for "keyword" | Trigger never existed or was already deleted — check spelling |
| Error deleting custom reply | Retry; contact support if it persists |
Update vs delete
To change content without deleting the keyword, use /reply keyword again — reply to the new message with the same keyword. Scribe replaces the old saved content.
Use /unreply only when you want the keyword to stop working entirely.
After deletion
If a member types the old keyword, Scribe does nothing — no error message, no AI fallback. The word is treated as a normal message (unless it happens to trigger AI via mention, which is unrelated).
Quick reference
- Command:
/unreply keyword - Admin only
- No reply-to-message needed
- To update content: use
/replyinstead
