Status Commands
Post a Text Status
status <your message>
Posts a styled text status to your contacts. Font and color are determined by your active preset (or random if no preset is set).
Examples:
status Good morning! New deals dropping today
status Check out our latest collection: https://yourstore.com
Text statuses support up to 4,096 characters. URLs automatically generate link previews.
Post a Media Status
Send an image, video, or voice note to your WASBOT session, then:
status <optional caption>
Or simply send media with "status" as the caption. The media is posted as a status update to your contacts.
Set Status Preset (Font & Color)
