Missing e 2.13.8: Fixes for tag reblogging and Quick Reblogging

I’ve just released Missing e version 2.13.8 for all browsers.

This release fixes the following problems:

  • reblogging with tags from a post permalink page
  • show a drop-down list of blogs to reblog to when quick reblogging from tag search pages

I am still working on bringing tracked tags back to the sidebar. Stay tuned!

You can wait until Missing e updates automatically, or force immediate updating here: http://missing-e.com/update

Missing e version 2.2.0 restores tag reblogging in the Better Reblogs feature. Missing e was the first tool to allow you to automatically add an original post’s tags when reblogging. For a few months, Tumblr attempted to implement this feature themselves, but recently they’ve removed it for whatever reason. Full control over tag reblogging has been restored in Missing e version 2.2.0. In the settings (which you can access like this), under Better Reblogs you can configure how you’d like your Tumblr reblogs to behave! These are the settings: Keep original post tags when reblogging When this is on, tags from the original post will be carried over (automatically or manually, see the following setting) Automatically add original tags to reblog post When this is on (and the “Keep original post tags when reblogging” setting is also on), the original tags are automatically added in the new reblog post. When this is off (and the “Keep original post tags when reblogging” setting is still on), the original tags are not automatically added to the new reblog post, but you can manually add them by clicking on the “Reblog Tags” button. Not only are tags on dashboard posts rebloggable, but also when you reblog a post from the post’s permalink page (like this one). However, Missing e uses Tumblr’s RSS feed to get the tags for posts when you reblog from the permalink page, so it takes a moment. When the reblog button is replaced with this, it is ready to be reblogged with tags: If for some reason, Tumblr’s servers are not responding, Missing e will retry getting the tags. After a few attempts, the reblog button will be replaced with this, to indicate that tags will not be reblogged this time: Note that this only applies to post permalink pages. Tag reblogging will always work when reblogging from the dashboard! If you’ve previously configured tag reblogging to your preferences in the settings, the new version of Missing e will automatically take your choice into consideration when updating.

These are the settings:

  • Automatically add original tags to reblog post

Tumblr no longer reblogging tags; ‘Missing e’ to allow you to control that

Possibly taking a cue from Missing e’s Better Reblogs feature which originally included this functionality, Tumblr started including the original post’s tags when you reblog a couple of months ago. I updated Missing e to take this new feature into account, allowing you to control whether or not tags were automatically reblogged.

Very recently, I noticed that Tumblr no longer reblogs tags automatically.

Missing e will be updated very soon (tomorrow or the day after) to allow you to control whether tags get reblogged or not, just as before!
