Travel Tour Reservation Bot

Telegram Bot with PHP and MySQL

This is a simple Telegram bot written in PHP that uses a MySQL database to manage user registrations and send messages to users. It allows you to send messages to all registered users or to specific users by their user IDs.

Features

• User Registration: Users can register with the bot using the /start command.
• Admin Messaging: The admin can send messages to all registered users or specific ones.
• Database Integration: All user data is securely stored in a MySQL database.
• Scalable: Built to handle a large number of users efficiently.
