# What a hyperlink nav is

A hyperlink nav is a single Telegram text message built from custom emoji and centred hyperlinks. It is saved and sent as an ordinary text command.

## Storage

> **Beta**

> Hyperlink Nav is currently in beta.

A nav is a text command: a trigger word, the message, and an on/off switch.

The builder's own settings are stored with it, so you can reopen it in the builder later (chapter 4.9).

## What the bot does with it

Matching is case-insensitive.

#### Matches for a nav saved under the trigger `socials`

| Input | Output |
| --- | --- |
| `/socials` | `matches` |
| `socials` | `matches` |
| `/socials@yourbot` | `matches` |
| `/socials` followed by more text | `matches` |
| `/socialsx` | `does not match` |

The bot sends the nav as a reply to the triggering message, with link previews disabled.

A deactivated nav gets no reply, the same as any other deactivated command.
