It's interesting but there are a few glitches I am finding Paul.

tribro---i have added my sports and it wont let me log them. it keeps telling me i dont have any active sports. am i doing something wrong?

So you added a Sport and make sure it's not accidently marked "inactive", then you clicked on sport entry (http://www.trifuel.com/log/entry_sport.php) and it says you can't because because you don't have any sports added?

Yeah it told me i have no active sports.

I started setting it up and I had connectivity problems.
I will work on it some more when it slows down later today. :D

Just made some minor updates to log. Now the 7 day summary is 30 days. Let me know if that's preferrable. Also some other additions to allow for yearly plotting in the future.

Also please share any comments you have. Or how you're using it. I just setup a goal for "X" number of bike miles by Ironman Canda, it's cool, shows me the start dae, end date, days left to complete, how many miles I have left to do and % complete. nice little feature.

TriBro,
I think it is a great site and I just logged in on it. I got all my sports and even a catagory for Freya walk/run stuff. I had only one prob. It would not take my birthday...Gosh maybe I'm to old to do this :eek: . How do I fix this ? Thanks alot

The log defaulted to 1969-12-31 and I was trying to enter
1961-02-28... ??
Thank you for the help. Other than that I have not had a problem and I really like it.

What are "keyword entry" and "bulk data entry used" for?

Ya, that's pretty much it. Keywords are used for anything you want to track that isn't under the sport. So like rb85cj7 I track weight as a keyword and then do a weight entry each week. Then I can go back in 6 months and graph weight fluxuation. Also tracking future scheduled dates and some other items. I'm going to try and use it for nutrition as well. So I have a keyword "nutrition" and I'll just put in total calories in the keyword value space and write in what I ate in the remarks. That's pretty much the idea.

More details on other things you can do with keywords:

Also, I should get to a birthday fix tomorrow that Roger sent over.

Glad you guys are using it and liking the functionality. All rcortesi!!!

I just uploaded some new files which should fix the birthday issue. It worked for me. Let me know if there are any additional issues with that function. I guess it was limited to those born before 1969...

Ha, ya that's one other outstanding issue. It'll keep you as a male in the database unless you go back to the profile page and resave. It seems to default to F when you load that page. Maybe I'm just trying to get everyone to connect with the feminine side ;)

Thanks TriBro,
It is working fine now. And I could enter my birthday and stuff.
I really like the log

Oh boy - I am Male! :D

Roger mentioned that he may be working on something like that in the future. I'll ask him if it's still on his list.

I also just updated some files in the log. Roger added a new equipment tracker so that's now available. I'll try to put some tutorials together shortly to help myself and everyone else get a better grasp on all it's capabilities.

Public, hmm? Maybe that would function as an option? I'm not sure if I'd publish my log or not.

But I know what you mean...it's kind of like seeing what an architect's own house looks like or what a chef has for dinner at home...

Yes, I agree. I sent a message to Roger. I think the idea was going to be either a "public" "private" toggle switch or maybe a list of buddies that you create whom could view it. I'll let you know if it sounds like something we can add any time soon.

I'm thinking viewable only by other trifuelers and if it's set to public then any trifueler. That would be a better way to find other potential virtual training partners. If you have to set a list you might miss hooking up with someone who has similar races, goals, training schedule. And if left to the default "private" than noone can see it. My thoughts on private vs. public.

I think what you have as displayed sounds good. Maybe goals instead of routes. Routes is very local where sharing goals may help keep you focused on them and others will be able to encourage the completion of those goals. Even small groups can create the same goals and track one anothers progress. That sounds cool.

i like the goals on there. I know it would help if someone on the site said hey you are falling behind on your bike miles maybe you should pick it up.

I like the idea of only thoses logged into Trifuel. too many others out there.

Question re: log
I created an upcoming event and managed to not record the name before hitting the save button. I can't seem to find a way to go back and edit it. Is this possible? Thanks!

Tribro, you have been excellent in answering all questions and helping. Just a thank you for all that you have been doing. You have alot on your plate sir. Well done! :)

BTW, I'm making it more public now, so there is a link in the top navigation bar over to the right. Now a shortcut to get into your log.

Still working on a simple blog alternative (no log integration) for Triathlonlife. I'm testing something I setup and may recruit those of you who were interested in a blog shortly.

o.k. gang. I just uploaded the changes Roger sent over...

So now you can share you logs with
1. Nobody - Defaulted to Private
2. All Trifuel members
3. Everybody and Anybody
4. Just a list of Trifuel members "Friends" you create.

You can update this setting in your profile at the bottom of the default settings section. If you choose Share with friends, after saving the updated profile you'll see a link in that section to Edit your Friend list. Click that and add Trifuel usernames of those you want to be able to see your log. The friend view shows totals for the past 30 days and entries, along with your event list and routes.

Let me know if you have any questions...

how do you link to it if you're not logged into your account? in other words what link do i give to others so they can read it (since there is identification info in [url]http://www.trifuel.com/log/)[/url].

also can we link our trifuel profile to our log?

Hey Mike, I think I figured it out. I bet you logged in from the homepage "Sign In" link? Yes? If so i think the issue is the log looks for a cookie set when you log in through the forums. Logging in through the home page looks to not set the cookie.

I updated the log page with a Log In link that will take you to a login form that routes you through the forums and back, so setting the cookie. It should work now.

Thanks for letting me know about this.
