No, it was the ride log with the secure browsing/https enabled, both my wife and I had the same issue on 2 different computers. Will email you with screen shots tomorrow night.

Doesn't work for me either. Https is enabled as well.

edit: Well it kind of works. Apparently I have to allow it access every time I want to do something, and then it only works some of the time.

I was able to reproduce the issue with the app wanting to re-authorize. It seemed to happen when adding rides if you used the auto-complete trails [HTML_REMOVED] friends fields in certain combinations. I couldn't figure out why this was killing the Facebook access token. But updating to the newest Facebook SDK and JQuery seems to have fixed the issue, it no longer happens for me. I've tested with several combinations in different browsers.

Maintaining a Facebook app has really been a pain, Facebook has changed their app platform so many times in the last 4 years.

If you wanna giver another go, it should work now, if you get it asking for authorization again PM me with the details. You can also try using the app outside the Facebook iframe https://facebook.canadaka.net/ridelog/ no Fb adverts as well.

Just a reminder that this Facebook App still works and has a small but active user base. GPS tracking apps like Strava are all-the-rage, but not all of us GPS every ride. Ridelog is just a simple spreadsheet style log of the days you ride in a year.

Someone's already at 60 rides in 2013!

Some of us don't live in Kits, so that puts the trails less than 5 mins away. Its easy to get out for a quick lap then.
