WP-Strava free WordPress plugin
Description
This plugin uses the Strava API to embed maps and activity for athletes and clubs on your WordPress site. Included are several widgets and shortcodes for showing maps and activity summaries. Cron Using WP-Strava 2.0+ requires a working WordPress cron configuration. By default, WordPress has a built-in cron system to run scheduled events, but it relies on your website getting frequent visitors. The Strava authentication token system expires after 6 hours if not refreshed. If you think your site will not get any visitors over the span on 6 hours, you might want to set up a real cron: https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/cron/hooking-wp-cron-into-the-system-task-scheduler/. Setting up this sort of cron is beyond the scope of support for this free plugin, so you should seek assistance through your host. Force-running the WordPress cron once an hour is good enough for WP-Strava. Blocks Strava Activity – embed an activity in any page or post. Shows a summary of the activity plus a map if a google maps key has been added. Paste in the full activity URL from Strava, such as https://www.strava.com/activities/1793155844 and click “Embed.” The preview map shown in the editor is a static sample image, the actual activity map will be displayed on the front-end. In the side-panel you can selection options to show the image only (without the details table) and to display markers at the start & finish points. Shortcodes [activity id=NUMBER] – add to any page or post. Shows a summary of the activity plus a map if a google maps key has been added. You should replace NUMBER with an activity ID from Strava.
