FAQ

My repository is not listed.

On GitHub, open Settings → Applications → Installed GitHub Apps → “Trail Blog Post” → Configure and make sure the repository is selected. Then pull down the list in the app to reload it.

Is my photo location sent?

No. Photos are redrawn before sending, removing location, capture time, camera model and all other metadata. They are resized to 2000px on the long side and saved as JPEG.

Where are posts saved?

The post and its photos are committed together in a single commit, at the path set by your blog type. You can check or change the paths in Settings → Change destination.

How do I sign out?

Tap “Sign out” in the app settings. To also revoke access on GitHub, go to Settings → Applications → Authorized GitHub Apps and revoke “Trail Blog Post”.
