** You can clear the authorization information by looking under the plugin specific settings.
* You will see a popup allowing you to customize the data exported to Dailymile.com

** The plugin attempts to guess what the correct activity type is from the activity category in SportTracks as described below. (If you think it should make better guesses, let me know.) You can change the activity type.
** The check box for 'Add Heart Rate' will add average, 99th Percentile and maximum heart rate values. You can see the text that will be added to the right of the check box. The check box will be greyed out if no heart rate data is available. The dailymile.com API does not yet allow for the population of the fields you would enter via the web interface.
** The check box for 'Add Cadence' will add average cadence. You can see the text that will be added to the right of the check box. The check box will be greyed out if no cadence data is available.
** The check box for 'Add Efficiency' will calculate a running efficiency metric based on the number of heart beats per mile. It requires distance and heart rate data. For more details, see [[Running Efficiency Calculator]]
** The check box for 'Add Stride Length' will calculate running stride length from cadence and distance.
** The check box for 'Add Elevation' will calculate ascent, descent and net elevation. Note that GPS data is quite inaccurate, and the elevation correction plugin is highly recommended.
** The check box for 'Add Weather Details' will add the information stored in SportTracks for the weather. The check box will be greyed out if there is no weather data stored.
** The check box for 'Add Weather Conditions' will add the textual information for the weather, which is populated by the excellent Old Man Biking Weather plugin. The check box will be greyed out if there is nothing in that field.
*** Include Time: How long each lap took
*** Include Distance: How far did you go for each lap
*** Include Pace: What pace did you average on each lap
*** Include Avg HR: The average heart rate for the lap
*** Include max HR: The max heart rate that occurred in the lap
*** Include End HR: The last heart rate reading for the lap, which may be useful for interval training
*** Include Cadence: The average cadence for the lap
*** Include Efficiency: The efficiency value for the lapfrom distance and heart rate*** Include Stride Length: The stride length from distance and cadence*** Include Elevation: The ascent, descent and net elevation changes*** Include Notes: Any notes added on the splits view of SportTracks*** Ignore Partial Last Lap: If your last lap is less than half the distance of the previous lap, don't include it. This is useful if you do a fraction of a lap before hitting the stop button.
** Select Laps will bring up a dialog that allows you to select which laps to include.
** The check box for 'Add GPS Track' will create a map of your workout in Dailymile.com, but long workouts may take a little longer to post.
** 'Use current time as start time' will post the workout as if you started it at the time of posting. This is less accurate, but posting with the correct start time may put your workout below other activities so that people don't notice it.
*** The workout is actually posted as starting five minutes ago to reduce the chance of Dailymile.com rejecting it because the start time cannot be in the future. If your PC clock is too fast, you may find your workouts rejected.
** Repost to runkeeper.com: This will post to dailymile.com, then post a link to the dailymile.com workout into runkeeper.com along with some basic workout details.
* Click OK to continue or Cancel to abort.
* If you continue, a browser window should popup with your workout in Dailymile.com
