To get some more practice and to allow those who don’t know how to code but want to design their own theme, I decided to open up requests. Click here to see commissions I’ve done previously! sooooo I guess that’s somewhat good news for everyone who uses custom pages with JS.Requests/Commissions Please check the sidebar on the right to see if these are open or not. if that pattern holds true, then it sounds like Tumblr support is likely to grant exemptions to people who are using javascript they didn’t write themselves in custom pages that were originally coded by thememakers. UPDATE: I’ve heard from at least one user who was able to get an exemption to use one of my pages with JS. I have a ton of messages in my inbox I’ll try to get around to in the next little while, but please be patient since I’m busy and tired :( Tumblr’s support is well aware that thememakers exist and they’ve been responsive to our concerns pretty consistently. it’s really frustrating for us thememakers who use static previews though.Īlso, as a final note: please be nice to support if you contact them. If it’s permanent, I’d be really annoyed, but I’ve always considered myself more of a theme thememaker than a page thememaker, so I’d stop making pages and continue to solely make themes. I might reconsider and create JS-less versions of the few pages I have that aren’t JS-heavy, but as I’m going to be very very busy writing my thesis and being logged off for the future, I wouldn’t count on it.
I don’t want to put a ton of work into making js-less versions till there’s more clarity on what’s going to happen. Plus, Tumblr hasn’t released much info about this and what possible exemptions will entail, so I’d rather wait and see what’s going to happen with exemptions, whether this ends up being a permanent policy, or if they’ll get rid of it, or if they’ll modify it. poppy would be super lame without the popup descriptions and the filtering. plus, a lot of my pages are centered around some kind of function that requires javascript - i.e.
I don’t have the time to do that right now, so unfortunately, not right now. Would you be able to come up with a javascript-less fix or version of your pages to evade the ban? Hyacinth and rue are the only pages of mine that doesn’t use javascript, so those should be fine. If your theme uses JS, it will be fine this only affects pages.ĭo you have any pages that don’t use javascript? I’m using one of your themes that uses javascript do I need to do anything? If you have pages that use JS, don’t touch them. I’m not optimistic about it and I don’t think support has clarified to anyone whether it’s possible to get an exemption for javascript coded by a third party (I assume they’re deluged with requests), but I suppose it’s worth a shot. The only thing you can do is to contact support, apply for an exemption, and see if they’ll let you. Help! I’m using one of your pages and it stopped working. some faqs responding to the many messages in my inbox:
#Cute tumblr themes update#
I’ll update once I hear back from support and if/when Tumblr puts out more info on this. I’ve applied for an exemption for my own pages and I’ll ask about the possibility for thememakers like myself to get a blanket exemption for our pages however, I think that’s probably impossible since all of my pages are hosted extraneously from Tumblr and I don’t think the logistics necessary for Tumblr to create a policy that would allow for blanket exemptions on third party pages are even possible and still allow for spam filtering are even possible. I don’t know whether they’ll allow blogs to use pages with javascript coded by a third party, and I feel like it may be a long shot, but I suppose it’s worth a try. if you’re using one of my pages that uses javascript and you’d like to continue, please follow that link and contact support about an exemption for your own blog (note: it’s a blog-wide exemption, not an account-wide exemption). You’ll need to contact Support if you’d like to use Javascript.Īccording to Tumblr, you can contact support and apply for an exemption here. If you try to edit a blog page that contains JavaScript, you’ll see an error message that reads: Looks like you’re trying to add some Javascript or invalid html to your page. If we detect it, we’ll remove it when the blog is viewed.
via Tumblr:īlog pages cannot have JavaScript as well. if you try to edit a page that uses javascript, you’ll get an error message that won’t let you use your page - you can see Tumblr’s official notice on this here. As many of you are probably already aware, Tumblr recently banned pages that use javascript.
