Telegram's Instant View Editor allows you to create and test templates for any domain. To begin, just go to My Templates, type a target URL for your Instant View template into the box, and hit ‘enter’. This will open the editor. The source page will be displayed on the left.
When creating an Instant View template, you have four main objectives:
- Instant View pages must only be generated for pages that need them.
- All essential content from the source page must be represented.
- All unnecessary elements must be eliminated from the Instant View page.
- Your template must work well with any of the pages it covers.
- Accordingly, one of the ways to create a template is to follow these steps:
Instant View pages work best with relatively static articles. On the other hand, the main page of a news site that contains ever-changing lists of links to new articles would hardly benefit from the IV treatment.
For the first step, you will likely use conditions to clearly define which parts of the target website will and will not be covered by your template.
Now it's time to do some real business. An Instant View page requires at least two properties to be created: a title and a body. Take a close look at the target article and make sure that all important elements are carried over to the IV page in a format supported by the Telegram apps.
At this stage, you may need to use functions to transform some elements before they are transferred. By the time you're done, your IV page should show the entire text of the article, along with all the headings and subheadings, quotes, cover and other photos, videos, and other kinds of embedded content from the source page.
Salvage the remaining useful bits, then use the @remove function to drop the rest. By now you should have a clean and slim IV page that displays the pure content and none of the fluff.
At this stage, we advise you to leave the familiar confines of the page you were using for testing and check out different pages from your target website. See if any pages that don't deserve IVs are getting them — and whether IV pages are missing for any that do deserve them.
Also, check whether pages with irregular elements are processed correctly. Pay special attention to ensure that various types of media, embedded content, quotes, and separators are all displayed nicely. Check 5-10 different links and make the relevant adjustments.
