Tumblr Tips

Here are some useful extensions, scripts, and tutorials for Tumblr. Scripts require a simple, one click install for Google Chrome. Firefox users may need to download Greasemonkey first before installing scripts.

As far as I know, these scripts/extensions can work together. 

I’ll add more links as I think of them, and feel free to share your own tips or resources. Please note that I didn’t make any of these resources, nor do I personally use all of them, so while I’m happy to answer simple questions, it’s probably best to ask the actual creator of the extension/tutorial/tool/etc.

Popular:

• Missing E - Probably the most popular Tumblr extension. Features: one click reblog/queue/drafts, automatically clears all tags when reblogging, adds tags to ask/reply, allows one click reply to comments (hold down the shift key to reply to multiple comments), shuffle queue, adds timestamp to posts on your dashboard, replaces text (reblog, notes) with picture icons, and more. Downside: Tumblr apparently hates Missing E, and will try to scare you into disabling it.
• Xkit - Similar to Missing E. Some additional features: Unfollower check (how to install), shorten long posts on dashboard, highlight or blacklist key terms in posts, download mp3 from audio posts. 
• Tumblr Savior - Blacklist tags that you do not want to see on your dashboard. Downside: Not everyone tags.

Some selections from a larger collection of scripts:

• Tumblr Life - Quick links to sort your dashboard by content (photos, text, quotes, video, etc), adds keyboard shortcuts.
• Tumblr Hate - Do you keep seeing the same post reblogged in your dashboard? This script lets you “hate” that post so you won’t see it again.
• Tumblr Helper - Create post templates with common settings, add personal notes to users on your dashboard
• Tumtaster - download mp3s from tumblr
• Notification eraser - If you have one post that keeps getting a ton of notes and clogging your dash, you can block the notifications.
