Nice blog post from @khurtwilliams about automatically sending Untappd check-ins to his Micro.blog-hosted blog.

@manton thank you. I have finally embraced micro.blog for exactly that, ‘micro blogging’. 😃

@manton @khurtwilliams fantastic! I was wondering about making a replacement for untappd with shortcuts but maybe this is the better approach.

@ChrisJWilson @manton @khurtwilliams, Whait, this goes your blog and hence you timeline as well?? This is golden!!!!

@khurtwilliams OMG!! Thank you!

@Gaby hopefully I captured the steps correctly. Let me know if I can be of any help.

@khurtwilliams I am presuming you can’t set this up under their free tier?

@Gaby Sorry to jump in, but I assumed this too. I set it up yesterday, then saw the price of Zapier premium and shut the tab 😂 Today I logged a beer on Untappd and the post appeared on my blog… so maybe it does work on the free tier.

@khurtwilliams Thanks for sharing this! I’m struggling to get photos to post properly. Do you just put the media variable inside an img tag?

@HauntedRadiator yes. Just put the media items inside an img tag. Unfortunately I don’t know how to escape the brackets, “{“ and “}” , on micro.blog. The \ are superfluous but necessary to prevent them from being parsed in micro.blog

@HauntedRadiator

Let’s see if this works.
