Upcoming work for Missing e….
Just to let you know, I will be travelling over the weekend. However, once I’m in one place for a little while, I’m going to be working on the following fixes and features for Missing e:
- Display tracked tags in the sidebar, in addition to the new tag search box
- Fix for the tag reblogging when clicking the reblog button
- Fix a problem with Quick Reblog not showing drop-down for secondary blogs on tag search results page
Missing e v2.13.0
I’ve released a new version of Missing e to support the new Tumblr dash that came out this evening!
I wanted to release this as soon as possible, so I have not fixed everything yet. Here is a list of what should be fixed:
- Styling issues arising from the new Tumblr dashboard layout
- Placement of Mass Delete buttons
- Quick (1-click) Reblog menu shows blog selector drop-down
- Reblog yourself from one blog back to that same blog
These issues still remain (I am continuing to work on them):
- Smart redirect feature is not working
- Magnifying the avatar of a dashboard notification opens that user’s blog in a new tab
Also, please note that the added blog sidebar buttons on your dashboard is now provided by the Tumblr interface, not Missing e. I’m not sure why they’ve chosen to hide some of the buttons (like Queue and Messages), but I will look into ways to improve it!
Update here: missing-e.com/update
If you have trouble, clear your browser cache after you update Missing e.
Firefox Users
A recent change to the Firefox tools that are used to create this extension have caused Missing e to be no longer be compatible with Firefox versions below 13. I will look into this to see if I can restore backwards compatibility, but it is worthwhile to keep Firefox up-to-date anyway. You should be able to update Firefox from your browser’s menu.
For anyone who missed the update yesterday. Keep in mind that the current version is 2.13.1 as I am continuing to release fixes as I find problems.

Missing e v2.9.15 Fixes: Smart Redirect, Magnifier for crush avatars
An update just went out the door with a couple of small fixes.
First, I’ve fixed a problem that caused the avatars in your Tumblr Crushes to be unclickable for the Missing e Magnifier feature.
Second, I’ve corrected an issue that caused the new-ish Smart Redirect option in the Posting Tweaks feature to not work properly for some people with only one blog associated with their account.
If you don’t want to wait for the new version to automatically update, you can do so manually by visiting http://missing-e.com/update and following the instructions!
Missing e version 2.7.0 - Update for compatibility with new Tumblr post icons
This update will fix a few compatibility issues that came up with the new Tumblr dashboard post icons display, including correctly showing the post’s notes count!
I strongly encourage you to update to this new version!
Please note that I may not have caught every problem with Tumblr’s interface change. If you notice anything not working as it should, please let me know.

The Missing e Update Bubble - What it means and how to make it go away!
~ What Does It Mean? ~
When the Missing e update bubble shows up, this means there is an important new version of the browser extension. I only cause it to show up when the new version fixes some major feature that has become broken (often because of changes to the Tumblr interface).
For example, a recent change to Tumblr caused the Quick (1-Click) Reblogging feature to stop working, and some users of the Ask Tweaks feature to be unable to respond to messages. This was quickly fixed, however. To ensure as many users as possible get the new version, the Update bubble shows up!
~ How Do I Update? ~
If you click on the red Update bubble, a new tab or window will open with instructions on how to manually update Missing e. Some people’s browsers will update Missing e automatically, and others will need to follow these instructions!
You can also follow the instructions on the Missing e FAQ page on how to update.
~ Will I Lose Any Features? ~
No! When the update bubble shows up, this means that a feature has broken and a new update fixes the problem! In fact, if you don’t update, you will lose one or more features (since they remain broken if you don’t update).
I believe this worry stems from the only time Missing e has removed features. Almost half a year ago, the Follow Checker and Unfollower features were removed. I realize that many people desired these features, but removing them was necessary to ensure I would be able to continue distributing Missing e and adding new features in the future.
If you haven’t updated in a while, rest assured that you will not lose any functionality. In fact, it is likely that you have not yet gotten the chance to use many new features are added to Missing e quite often!
~ This Post Was Too Long. Just Tell Me What To Do! ~
Update Missing e to fix features that may be broken and so you can start enjoying new features that have been added to Missing e!

Missing e version 2.2.11: Timestamp Fix for Daylight Savings & Reblog Ask Posts
Fix for Daylight Savings in Timestamps
The newest version of Missing e includes a fix for the issue many noticed today with post Timestamps not correctly changing now that daylight savings time has ended.
Reblog Ask Posts
Also, it is now possible to reblog ask posts (sort of).
With this feature active, you’ll now have the ability to reblog Ask posts from the dashboard and permalink pages.
What Missing e will do is to automatically convert the reblog to a text post, with the title being “[username] asked:” followed by the original question, and the answer quoted in the body of the post.
You’ll also be able to reblog Ask posts with Missing e’s Quick (1-click) Reblogging menu!
You can activate this feature in the Missing e settings (find out how to get there) under the Post Features tab, in the Better Reblogs section.
Limitation: When reblogging an Ask post from the post’s permalink page (the individual post page styled with the user’s Tumblr theme), getting the correct username for the asker depends on the user’s theme. If their theme does not display the asker’s username in a standard way (most should), Missing e may have no choice but to assume the asker is Anonymous.
If you want the new version immediately, DO NOT uninstall and reinstall Missing e, instead, read the instructions on how to update:
Firefox users: Until the new version of the extension is reviewed by the Mozilla Add-Ons site, you can update just by installing the new version over top of your existing one, from here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/missing-e/versions/. If version 2.2.11 does not appear in the list, you can wait until later, or use this direct link to install: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/136542/missing_e-2.2.11-fx.xpi
