Old Tumblr Dashboard (Userstyle)!!

I created a Userstyle for the Chrome/Firefox Stylus Extension that reverts the new dashboard to the old look!

You need to have Stylus installed. So if you don't have it:

Install the Stylus Firefox Addon or the Manifest V2 Chrome Extension (You can install Chrome Extensions on Edge as well)

Once it's installed into Firefox/Chrome/Edge you can proceed with adding this style or any other.

To add the style (Stylus), follow the instructions:

Go to this link: https://userstyles.world/style/11286/old-tumblr-dashboard-userstyle (If it says 'style not found' then the Userstyle.world server is just down, try again in an hour)

Click on "install".

Style will open a tag with it and in the left side you'll have a button that says "install style", click there. (Step-by-step copied from the lovely dorothyoz39 who wrote this in a reply!) If you don't want the sticky header you can remove the labelled script at the top of the css below /* Sticky Header*/

For Manifest V3 only Chrome Or Stylus incompatible browsers:

For Chrome Manifest V3 install the Tampermonkey Extension

Then add the Tampermonkey Backup Script instead of the Stylus version

https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/492279-old-tumblr-dasboard-backup I highly recommend you switch to Firefox for continued use of good extensions! Stylus does not have a V3 update yet; however, the tamermonkey script works just as good.

Be sure to check for updates regularly and if you'd like, consider supporting me on Ko-Fi https://ko-fi.com/pixiel !

I'm currently taking donations so I can afford a much-needed wheelchair, so please check out my GoFundMe for more details! Any Ko-Fi donations will be added manually to the GoFundMe

..::::HOW TO UPDATE::::..

click the Manage button on Stylus and click the check for update button next to the userstyle, then click again to install!

Make sure to check the Userstyle and see if the version number matches the one below if you don't see any changes!

NEW UPDATE: 25/05/25 (D/M/Y) 17:28PM BST v17.13

16.16: Fixed activity and notifications, they now look like the previous version 17.0: Final update to the new icons bs! Every page should be functional. If theres any missed parts or bugs - let me know! 17.9: Minor fixes and Tampermonkey update! You can also fix the positioning of the Communities button and subnav from this menu as well - it should remember your settings when you update!

Tumblr Post Width & More (OTD+ Userstyle) Is now available!!

OTD+ is an add on for Old Tumblr dashboard that you can use to edit the Post Width, Content Positioning & More - It must be used with Old Tumblr Dashboard installed as well on the latest update! This style might be merged with OTD in the future.

THE CREATOR OF THIS USERSTYLE SUPPORTS THEIR TRANS SISTERS. WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER!

Check the readmore for the changelog, custom code & known issues!

----- Known issues:

Only two columns in Masonry view. Semi-Unfixable, Tumblr creates columns based on monitor size, if I try adding another column (because it doesn't exist) it just perpetually loads on screen. Semi-fix: Zoom out in chrome/firefox and it adds more columns, you may need to change the font size of the page though

Search bar doesn't appear on some pages (like viewing a post), this is because Tumblr removed the search bar on those pages completely. Unfixable but not a big deal

Tumblr has ONCE AGAIN CHANGED THE ACCOUNTS MENU. The menus are now shorter and have less information on them. This is unfortunately permanent. I do not see any way to fix this. Unfixable.

If you want people's icons to stay fixed in place, instead of scrolling with the dashboard change this in Stylus;

Or if you're using the tampermonkey version

Find text:

.NLCTe > div.Evcyl > div > div > .So6RQ.YSitt > .ge_yK > .c79Av > article > header > .RYkKH > .nZ9l5 { pointer-events: auto; top: 55px; transition: top .25s; position: -webkit-sticky; position: sticky; } and replace it with;

.NLCTe > div.Evcyl > div > div > .So6RQ.YSitt > .ge_yK > .c79Av > article > header > .RYkKH > .nZ9l5 { pointer-events: auto; top: 0px; transition: top .25s; position: absolute; }

Solved issues: (Update)

Menus need to be manually closed SOLVED! in V.4 and updated in V.5! The menu & icon WILL scroll with you if you have removed the sticky header CSS, however, clicking anywhere on screen will make the Menu disappear still.

Masonry view in searches is now fixed!

Resized Messenger Chat Box!

NEW UPDATE 16/08/23, 23:55 BST v6.5: Figured out how to reorganise the icons in the header. Let me know if you have any problems with it and make sure to update your Userstyle! Some icons are hidden with Display: Block; you can hide more icons with this method!

Solved issues p2

Brought back SOME of the icons for Tumblrs latest update - Unfortunately, this does not bring back user icons for Reblogged posts! Make sure to yell at Tumblr for removing the icons as well as the horrible dashboard update here! v7.5 Fixed icons for all posts and put them back where they came from!

v6.9.6.9 (I promise this is the last funny number): Fuck Off Buggy The Clown Update + All languages support for the old header design!

v7.0: Fixed the search bar for tumblrs new collections feature, so it looks like the original search bar!

v8.0: Fixed masonry view icons, hidden the reblog icon on dashboard icons, fixed icons in blog viewport

V8.1: Fixed issue with icons not working on soft-refresh & with endless scrolling disabled - be sure to complain to staff!

v9.3: Changed a few things with the search feature, I also made the posts less round.

UPDATE2 11/04/2024: SO We mighhtttt have overrun their servers. 😅 I'm getting a 500 Internal Server Error every time I try to fix it or upload it as a new style - the massive influx of people downloading the userstyle was probably too much. The Tampermonkey backup on Greasyfork works just fine though! Probably easier for a lot of people migrating anyway! UPDATE 11/04/2024:: My code has broken on Userstyles.world, (it is now fixed as of 12/04/24) until this is fixed I have created a Tampermonkey Backup Version of the Userstyle so feel free to use this version if you've broken yours!

https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/492279-old-tumblr-dasboard-backup

v9.6: Moved the Following | For you | Your Tags to below the create a post panel. Fixed the Accounts Menu! + Bugfixes V10.3: Patio compatibility. Added a way to hide the Patio button & "patio feedback?" button, just search for patio in the code and follow the instructions! v11.0: Temporary Chat feature fix after Tumblr broke it, fixed some positioning issues and j/k scrolling!

v12.3: Fixed a text issue (my bad!), I undid the changes to the replies function and added a way to fix icons order for when you get the communities update!

v12.5: Update to make compatible with the Content Positioning using Tumblr Post Width & More (OTD+ Userstyle) v12.6: Post buttons fixed, icons unable to be fixed yet as I haven't got the tumblr changes just yet - but I will fix them asap!

v11.7: Communities Update, changed the new search bar on communities page to resemble the old one. The search bar still doesn't work on these pages yet for some reason. Blog view icons fixed. v13.0: The icons change should now have a working patchfix! BIG THANK YOU to arcadian-asgardian for sending me the screenshots I needed and testing if it worked. + Minor tweak, communities button resized to fit the rest of the icons better v13.2: Mini fixes now that I have better access to the new changes! Communities icon re-centered, usernames nudged back into place.

V13.5 & v13.7: Nuked the Go Premium button - Re-positioned the search bar on search pages v13.10: Changed a lot of the new look for replies - it's not perfect yet mind. Small bug with the "..." menu moving to the left with shorter replies. Looks a lot more like the old replies section though! Made it possible to remove the reply to reply button just search for "NEW Replies UI" in the userstyle and remove the /* */ around "display: none" OR use Ublock to block the element! v14.1: Reverted the "Original Poster" border + text to look like old version. Edit: Whoops, fixed an issue with showing the timestamps

v13.4: Added a way to fix the communities icon position if you don't have the New Xkit button or have hidden any of the icons. Just remove the highlighted /* */ pair in the code for what you need.

v14.11: Made Premium Perks button available in the bottom left corner for all premium users v15.2: Fixed the Tumblr fuckup AND added a cool new feature that allows you to customise the look of your header & hide the reply-to-replies button if you like, here's how to customise this. Set to "Block" if you want the button/icon visible, Set to "None" if you want it hidden! V15.5: Given labels to options for clarity - now says 'show' or 'hide'!

v15.9: The Boopdate! V16.0: Fixed Search view pages and made them look normal, unfortunately, I can't bring back the dropdown menus for "top"/"All Time" etc - but it should look more like the original now

v16.3: Minor tweaks to make search pages look better

16.10: Fix changes to the notification icons 16.14: Fixed many issues with Tampermonkey Version - including a bug that makes the header go weird when you click on a post, fixed notification icons in small view

16.16: Fixed activity and notifications, they now look like the previous version

16.26: TEMPORARY UPDATE - only changes some aspects of the dashboard - THIS IS FULLY INCOMPLETE AND I AM WORKING ON A FULL FIX FOR THE REST OF THE SITE EDIT: added changes for timestamps!

So my drawing pads cord is broken. So while we wait for the new one to come in, I decided that I'm going to post some abandoned projects/current wips to tie us over until then!

Election dinner code fight:

Status: Abandoned.

Timeline: about a month or two ago.

Really liked to concept but got frustrated and never finished it.

Two hands painting:

Status: V1 abandoned (unhappy with results), V2 future wip.

Timeline: first week of October

We constantly switch to very different art styles due to different alters switching in and out (DID) that causes many projects to go on the back burner from weeks to months at a time. This unfortunately happens to be one of them, Plus we hadn't 100% locked down the character designs for q!Philza and q!Missa yet. Had to completely restart this one because I got so frustrated with Missas face and wasn't satisfied with how it was turning out. (the disdain and resentment I unironically feel towards the first one is immeasurable) This was done by the same alter that did the other death trio piece.

Missa and Foolish with the eggs:

Status: future wip.

Timeline: first half of October

Was still in the sketching phase when it became another victim of the alter switch back burner. Really happy with the progress of it though. (This was the same alter that did the firework Mexican independence day and the Crow Monster comics)

Death room:

Status: current wip.

Timeline: after the stream when this happened

Has been on the back burner since the stream this happened due to still being in the process of nailing down the character design/body build for q!Philza. Just waiting for cord to get here now to finish it. Will probably post q!Philzas character sheet before posting.

Hey thanks for checking out my art! I know a lot of people are newer to the platform who migrated from Twitter so it's just a heads up 🫰. Please consider rebloging and not just liking. LIKES DO NOT DO ANYTHING ON TUMBLR. It's really sad to see a lot likes but only 4 reblogs on a lot of art posts that end up not getting any traction because nobody else sees it after the first 3 days.

Also if you're new, PLEASE CHANGE YOUR PROFILE PICTURE AND HEADER FROM THE DEFAULT! There are so many bots here so most people will just block and report as spam on sight if you still have the default.

[minkiverse]

i need some advice for a header im working on i wont be using it any time soon but i like making my about banner at the same time so i just want to know which style people prefer

With the appropriate tactic as well as know-how of aftermarket components, you may attain outstanding increases without needing to have a bank loan. Below's our malfunction of cost effective yet successful functionality upgrades.

1. Knowing Your Toyota's Efficiency Potential What Are actually Efficiency Upgrades?

Performance upgrades pertain to adjustments created to an auto focused on boosting its power, handling, and also general steering experience. Coming from basic bolt-on parts to much more intricate engine tweaks, these enlargements may considerably modify exactly how your motor vehicle does while driving or even track.

Why Decide on Toyota for Efficiency Upgrades?

Toyota has actually long been actually identified for creating reliable lorries with plenty of aftermarket support. Components created primarily for models like the Camry, Corolla, and also also the athletic GR Supra provide extensive potential for augmentations without endangering reliability.

2. Intake Solutions: A Breath of Fresh Air What Does an Aftermarket Consumption Do?

A high-performance intake unit enables your engine to inhale more properly by increasing airflow. This not merely enhances horse power yet additionally enriches throttle response.

A content delivery network helps to host content such as images, media files, static content and style sheets of a large website by reproducing a copy of data through the various nodes of a network. Additionally, content delivery software helps to reduce load of websites and to improve downloading time of the websites. CDN is not just software; instead, it is a mix of hardware and software which helps to solve the problem of web content downloading and management using synchronization, logging, authentication and load balancing. As a software architect, I have personally preferred to pick a low cost CDN or to create my own CDN using open source tools along with freely available public CDNs just like for jQuery and other popular libraries. Here is the list of open source projects which can be used to create your own CDN – CoralCDN CoralCDN is one of the most popular and free peer-to-peer CDN which has proxies and name servers across the world. Coral replicates content and allows users to publish content. It allows easy access to the content of the websites and it can get cached objects through network too. It avoids hot spots in its infrastructure to provide high speed service. The software uses novel indexing method DSHT and creates self organizing clusters of nodes to get information from a nearby node. CoralCDN is managed by a Princeton SNS group. MirrorBrain Mirrorbrain provides mirror servers to run content delivery networks. It has a download redirector which redirects the request from the browser to the local mirror server. It can be used to generate torrents in real-time. It is licensed through GPL and three Apache modules of Mirrorbrain is licensed under Apache license. CoDeeN CoDeeN is an academic CDN which is built on the top of PlanetLab at Princetown University and it has been tested through high performance proxy servers. The server works as server surrogates and request redirectors. It provides fast and robust web content, and many projects are associated to CoDeen such as CoBlitz, CoDeploy, CoDNS, CoTop, CoMon and CoVisualize. CoBlitz is web based distribution service which provides distribution of large files. Mediaport.net Mediaport.net is a cooperative CDN which uses peer-to-peer infrastructure for web hosting and it is licensed under BSD license. Firestarter Content Delivery System Firestarter is a cross platform content delivery system which provides distribution of games, live videos, audio, data and different types of multimedia content. It is licensed under GNU General Public License. Cacheboy Cacheboy provides an open platform to provide efficient content delivery. The open source project’s mirror infrastructure is donated to service providers across the world and these mirrors are connected through internet. The project redirects the user to a mirror close to the user’s location. Hence Cacheboy essentially works through mirrors and it is licensed under GPLv3 license. Mod CDN - Apache Module Mod_cdn is a Apache Module developed at Voxwl and it helps in sending proper headers and validating authentication tokens. It can be installed and configured at customer’s server and it is licensed under GPL v2 license. There is no package for Mod_cdn and the user will have to compile from the source. OpenCDN OpenCDN is an application level CDN which replicates content and splits the live and recorded content. OpenCDN is coded in Perl and it uses Relay technology to split media packets. The control communication between the nodes and origins is done through XML – RPC. It is licensed through Perl Artistic License and can be downloaded from Download OpenCDN . Phloem Phloem is a light weight open source CDN which has the base layer called Xylem, and the CDN is written in Perl. It is licensed under GNU GPL v3. Its code can be found at Download Phloem P2P-Next P2P-Next is next generation Peer-to-Peer content delivery software which can be

used for simultaneous transmission to millions of people and it uses multicasting to send data to millions of users at one time. The data stream is distributed through the local servers and the live events can be re-broadcasted to local viewers. Since IP routers do not support multicasting, optimized uni-cast, broadcast and multicast mechanism is adopted through P2P. The provider has partners in 12 countries and it is based on open standards open source. CDN nodes are located in various geographical locations and these nodes work in cooperation with the requests of the client. Content delivery networks distribute the assets and use various techniques such as server load balancing, web caches, dynamic metafile generation, ‘anycasting’ and HTML rewriting to reduce client response time. It’s essential that the CDN is located near the targeted customer, since that would result in faster page loads and resultantly, the customers browsing experience will be enhanced. If you are planning to set up a geo targeted website, an Opensource software listed in this article would enable you to quickly start a CDN. However, you may require hardware for running these. On the other hand, if you are building a website which has a worldwide presence, you should opt for niche CDN services such as Akamai and Incapsula. There are a number of popular CDNs, besides the ones mentioned in this list. Please share with us in comments if you have used some other CDNs which you were impressed with. Updated On Oct 2016: Updated links and fixed minor formatting issues.

[screwdriver-cd]

Release July 2024

It’s summer! The Screwdriver team is pleased to announce our newest release which brings in new features and bug fixes across various components.

New Features

UI

Display admins on pipeline options page

API

Skip execution of virtual jobs - A job can be marked as virtual by adding the annotation screwdriver.cd/virtualJob: true. These jobs will not be executed while processing the workflow for an event, but will proceed with SUCCESS status. These jobs will skip queueing and execution and builds of its downstream jobs will be immediately created to continue the processing of the workflow.

Get repository data from scmRepo without GitHub access - Before this change, extra calls were made to GitHub to fetch SCM repository information. After this change, the API now will pass scmRepo info directly in order to avoid extra GitHub calls. This has been implemented for webhooks only so far.

Pipeline template enhancements: Can customize image, settings, environment, and requires for jobs that already exist in pipeline template, Add new jobs that are not part of pipeline template in user yaml, Flatten shared steps to jobs in pipeline template, Pipeline template validator shows extended configs for job template, Pipeline template validator shows workflow graph

Store

Replace jwt expiration with a config and environment variable - The jwt expiration is currently 13h and is written directly in the source code. This makes it difficult for SD administrators to change to arbitrary values to suit their use cases. Now Screwdriver cluster admins can set the JWT expiration length using JWT_MAX_AGE.

Add handling for the Expect header at onPreAuth - To reduce unnecessary retries when uploading large files, Screwdriver will use the Expect: 100-continue header. The content length can be checked before the body is uploaded. Thus, the HTTP client (store-cli) can receive a 413 error earlier without unnecessary retries.

Bug Fixes

UI

Show workflowGraph for pipeline template validation

Show missing fields in pipeline template detail page

Add test for parameter-utils

New V2 work: Use unified modal style for toggle job modal, Refactor parameter flattening to generalized util, Refactor graph rendering logic, Add v2 secrets route, New confirm action modal UI, case where there are no parameter groups to expand, Clean up the new v2 layout, Refactor pipeline secrets to not use ember data, Refactor to no use ember data for pipeline data, Screwdriver style mixin for Bootstrap buttons, add options to v2 route, Modal for adding a pipeline to a collection, new pipeline header component, Expand default modal styles, Update add to collection modal

API

Add logic to switch to using current user’s SCM token next

Fixed error handling of external trigger

Fix event where a restarted join build is run

Check original job is not archived

Handle API functional testing

Internals

Allow colons to be used in root directory

Allow to cd to rootDir containing special characters

Compatibility List

In order to have these improvements, you will need these minimum versions:

API - v7.0.162

UI - v1.0.967

Store - v5.2.0

Queue-Service - v3.0.10

Launcher - v6.0.200

Build Cluster Worker - v3.1.1

The Ultimate Test Post v2

Welcome to the ultimate test post, a show of strength, wit and only the finest in NPF parsing engineering. Well, as far as the editor will let me go, anyways. The docs for NPF actually have some stuff that you can't do in Tumblr's editor like skipping indentation levels in lists.

In case you don't know what NPF is: it stands for Neue Post Format, and it's the standard for Tumblr posts. Instead of storing post content as HTML, posts are stored as blocks - which pretty much match the ones you can create in the editor. This absolutely

HUGE VARIETY

of the format makes it very fun to parse.

Blocks cover text, images, videos, audio, polls and anything else you could think of.

Text blocks are by far the most common, though they can have many types:

Bigger, roughly equivalent to a <h2> header;

Biggest, roughly equivalent to <h1>;

Quote, mimicking the old quote type;

Chat, mimicking the old chat type;

Lucille, which shows up in a fancy font;

And a handful of indented types as well:

Indented, which is a block quote;

Bulleted lists,

equivalent to HTML's ;

And numbered lists,

for counting all the things, like HTML's .

All of the above are just text blocks with a different type. Separate from the type is the formatting - so, bold, italics, strikethrough, small and mixtures of them all.

Also, colors! The standard blog UI exposes red, orange, green, blue, yellow, pink and purple. As a fun fact - Tumblr's CSS actually has more colors, and these colors that are exposed have names - they're named after Friends characters! I've found that sometimes the old HTML API will return them; othertimes they return just the color code. Sadly NPF only returns the color codes, so this fun easter egg became forgotten.

Links are also formatting - for example, here's a link to your favorite website. Mentions are formatting as well - @knuxify.

Two fun easter eggs that AREN'T part of formatting are:

You can make the tumblr logo by using "[ tumblr ]" without the spaces between the brackets: [tumblr]

Tumblr's font also includes a Tumblr logo character in the reserved codepoint space:  (that's Unicode codepoint U+E022 for the curious).

These both utilize quirks in Tumblr's fonts.

Also, if you include up to 3 emoji on one line, they will become big, like so:

😀😄😅

Note that this also works with multi-codepoint emoji (oddly enough, it seems broken in the editor!):

👨‍👨‍👦👨‍👨‍👦👨‍👨‍👦

Also, using another type like "quote" will override the big emoji:

😀😄😅

Note that formatting counts one Unicode codepoint as one character; so, make sure emoji like 👨‍👨‍👦 don't break your offsets.

Also, if you're parsing text for display, you may want to escape HTML sequences, or else <style>body { background: blue; }</style> will make your site blue and <script>alert(1)<script> will make a popup appear.

Oh, and once you parse those, make sure that they don't break formatting. Though, after all, a safe website>>>>>>>a bunch of code execution exploits.

A text block represents a paragraph, but it doesn't represent every line break. As a matter of fact, multiple line breaks can be used in a paragraph, and they will all remain as part of one block. Crazy, right?

(I grabbed the first best GIF from the picker, didn't even read the original post. But hey, nice occasion to show off the attribution label, which is also carried in NPF's block data!)

A fun thing about blocks is that you can specify a layout, which contains a list of rows, each of which can contain more than one block. Here's an example:

Images below 300px (so, 299px and below) are displayed at their original size:

However, this is ignored for multi-image rows:

Here's the other block types:

In order: image with "link" attribution, link with header image, link without header image, audio, video, poll.

You can also add embeds:

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by SEAVS (@seavsonline)

...and more that I'm probably forgetting.

Oh, and there's also "read more" functionality:

That's it for the fun formatting tricks. Have fun parsing Tumblr posts, and good luck - you'll really need it.

[mentalisttraceur-incomplete]

I think the C/C++ community needs the ability to very ergonomically pull down code from URLs like GitHub repos as part of the build workflow - it should be so ergonomic that once you've done installed your compiler, you could write and build a Hello World which uses a third-party library without ever having to ask yourself how to actually get that third party library.

I think if you want to single-handedly revolutionalize C/C++ development, bringing sweeping practical efficiency improvements to developer experience, you write a C/C++ (pre-)pre-processor which can interpret include-style directives like this:

#include-repo "github.com/mentalisttraceur/errnoname"

That should download the specified library. Then update the header search path to include the downloaded directory. Everything else continues to work as normal, so in this errnoname example, you'd still have your normal include right after:

#include "errnoname.h"

If you want to get more fancy with it, go for it, but this is a very simple minimum idea which gets you like 90% of the win.

For serious production use, it will be necessary to support specifying a version or commit for stability and reproducible builds. So for URLs that ultimately target Git repos, we should support specifying an additional string, which then gets used as a tag or commit hash (in that order of precedence, because tags are the canonical way to refer to commits from which an official versioned release was cut, commit hashes work even if the repo doesn't have good tags). Since it is bad practice to be over-specific with dependencies until it's time to make a reproducible build, and since SemVer is such a good de-facto standard for such things, it would be good to also interpret a string like "v2" as requesting the highest "vX.Y.Z" tag. How to specify the string? Well, if we're adding a separate directive, I'd use a second argument/token:

#include-repo "github.com/mentalisttraceur/errnoname" "v1"

If you decide to overload "#include" instead of adding a new directive, I would make it part of the same string-like argument/token instead of adding a second one. Just pick a character that cannot occur in a repo name or URL as a delimeter - perhaps a space?

multiple versions of the same library. Diamond dependency problems are inevitable at scale and when there's no good answer to them, the software will fail.

If you want just one other language to use as reference for this feature, take a look at how Go does it. Go's "import" keyword can take URLs to packages. It downloads the souces to a local cache if you don't have it yet. Then it uses special handling for SemVer-style version tags: if the repo URL has a "v2" at the end,

Key points: the URL-include directive should still target a file, not the repo as a whole. We don't need to come up with some additional extension
