One of the main reasons the @strava2hive service was set up, was to allow people to ability to easily create Hive posts using their Strava activities. The goal was to keep true to Hive’s original philosophy in writing engaging blog posts to share with the community, and also including Strava activity details, photo’s, screenshots, etc. I tend to not make too many changes as the code is working and don’t really want to do anything to mess this up.
So this change has been a long time coming where, we have only been able to add one picture from Strava to our Hive posts. You might have already noticed, but you can now add two images from your Strava activity, including your activity screenshot. I know this is not a big change, but hopefully allows everyone to create even better posts with this option. If people feel the need to add in more images into their posts, let me know as this could be something to add at a later date.
As you can see from the screen shot below from user @dejan.vuckovic, this comes up pretty nicely in web browser. You can see the original post here:
Is There Anything Else That Might Help
Moving forward, I will look at making some minor changes to the template that creates the posts, but if there is anything you think should be added in there, please let me know. It might just be something small, but make a big difference in the appearance or engagement of the posts.
Remember To Engage With The Community
There are quite a few people using the service now, so make sure you are engaging with the community, upvoting posts, commenting, welcoming new members, and posting valid(real) activities.
