May 1May 1 Ok, I am interested in this app. A few questions.1.Can the words running, hiking be removed? I own motorcycle forums and we will be sharing motorcycle dirtroads and trails.I see a link to download routes to Strada, could that be removed and possibly replaced with a more Moto related GPS app ?Very interesting app and I think it would be pretty popular with my members.

I own motorcycle forums and we will be sharing motorcycle dirtroads and trails.Yes, you can manage the activities the way you want:I’m not sure about the “running”. Where did you see that?3 hours ago, Cruizin said:I see a link to download routes to Strada, could that be removed and possibly replaced with a more Moto related GPS app ?Yes, it’s a per group option and it comes disabled by default. Regarding changing it, it would require a small change because it is hardcoded to Strava but it is doable.You only need to make sure you have a GPX file to upload. The GPX will “create” the map you see there.
May 2May 2 Everything enabled, cant figure out how to make it display anywhere on the forum. Dont see it in menu manager. What do I have to do to get it on the forum ? Edited May 2May 2 by Cruizin

May 3May 3 Ok, I can make this work in categories. But how can members download the GPX files please? We uploaded a couple routes but none of us can see how to download the GPX files to a device.

We uploaded a couple routes but none of us can see how to download the GPX files to a device.ACP -> Members -> Groups -> edit a group -> Routes.You will find an option to allow download of the GPX.
May 3May 3 I’m sorry to bug you again. But when we click on download GPX file it seems to just pop up a picture from the route. I am using a tablet, not laptop as I am working in the field, but one of the other members is getting the same issue using a computer.This also seems to happen when we click on rate.
May 3May 3 Confirmed on Laptop and desktop. Clicking on "Download GPX File" results in an image from the route displaying on the screen. No way to download GPX file. I'm removing Routes and from the forum
