**What would you like done?**  
This is only an inquiry and therefore not a job - yet. I am interested in hearing if the below can be done and what such a plugin will cost.

I would like to add a bot on my site or a feature where when use type a given character an action is performed.

Eg.  
@BotName $variable1 $variable2 $variable3  
or  
+$variable1 $variable2 $variable3

Make a new post below with an inserted image based on the given variables

Eg  
`https://charts2.finviz.com/chart.ashx?t=$variable1&ty=$variable3&ta=0&p=$variable2&s=l`

In addition, a plugin setting where you can

1. Define the url and which variables to insert where
2. An option to define which character activates the action $ or for example +
3. Specify the botname if that solution is choosen.

As well as for $variable1 an option to make a alias list. In my case $variable1 will be a ticker id.

Eg. goog  
But I would like to do it like this, for example, you write. google or alphabet, then it also becomes goog.

I am willing to let to be a public plugin.

If you have any suggestions, I’d love to hear them

**When do you need it done?**  
In 2023

**What is your budget, in $ USD that you can offer for this task?**  
See the text above

I am interested in this, I think maybe I can finish this project.  
My valuation of this depends on how complex and extensible you want it to be. Feel free to PM me

I’d be interested in seeing the code if you still were ok with making it public!
