Training Logs to Twitter

Settings -> Training Log Settings -> Privacy Settings

Thanks Mike!

This has stopped working.  I know Twitter rolled out some new auth changes, perhaps the scripts here need to be adjusted?

Yeah. We're working on implementing OAUTH right now. This might be a couple of days with coding/testing etc.

Have fun.

It is fun. I get to make cool things that get used by thousands of triathletes every day. Of course, there's the occasional public flame out that gets seen by said thousands of triathletes, but those aren't too often.

And, as long as I'm in there I'm think I'm going to add the ability to tweet a race report summary when they get made public.  eg. "Finished the GottaTri! Olympic Distance Triathlon in 2 hours 27 minutes".

That would be nice

Maybe offer the possibility to just tweet the RR too if possible, but not the daily training.  

It would be nice if the tweet gave the average pace, but I know we're working with a small amount of available characters.

Thanks for all the work you do. Will wait patiently for everything to get fixed.

X2, would love to have that.

It's back.

You're going to have to enable it again, however.

Go to Settings -> Training Log Settings -> Privacy Settings

Click the "Sign In With Twitter" button, follow the prompts and you're good to go.

From a security/privacy standpoint this is a good move. Your Twitter login information is now handled solely by Twitter. The process basically now has Twitter first check to see that BT is who we say we are, and then when you enable tweeting from your logs, it gives us a couple of authentication codes specific to your Twitter account and your account here which are then checked when doing a status update.

Let us know if any problems.

After I sign into Twitter, it redirects me to dev2.beginnertriathlete.com and asks for a login there. 

Try now.

Works like a champ now.

Mike. I'm getting a "Page cannot be displayed" message when I hit "save" from training logs now. Twitter setttings look OK. error with both the Garmin upolad and manual input.

Yeah, I just saw that. Should be ok now.

I'll give it a shot tonight & let you know if I have any problems.  Thanks!

It seems to be down for me again.  I log my workouts but they don't show up on Twitter. 

And yes, I've re-authenticated. 

It just worked for me.  Is anyone else experiencing this?

Twitter has been it's usual semi-flaky self lately according to downrightnow.

I'm also wondering if your location is somehow related.

Nope, we didn't do anything. Twitter isn't known for being 100% reliable, so I do expect this from time to time.

This feature is behaving very inconsistently for me.  For example, this morning it did not work but feeds from other sites to Twitter were getting there.  The inconsistency doesn't seem to be a Twitter problem, at least today.

We'll look into it. I haven't been able to reproduce this so far.

One thing: are you using the "Copy To Actual" function? Workouts recorded using that will not be sent to Twitter.
