Q:i feel like such a lame kid for asking but i'm totally lost on how to use the keyboard shortcuts can you explain them? :)

Sure! Basically, Tumblr lets you jump directly to the next post on your dash using the J key and jump to the previous post using the K key. Once you jump to a post using J or K, you can use L to like that post.

Missing e adds a few more shortcuts that you can use once you’ve jumped to a post using J or K. Not all of them are available by default (some, like Quick Reblog have to be activated in the Missing e settings):

  • E will open that post for editing (if it is your post)
  • C will open the comment/reply box for that post so you can leave a reply (type in your reply and hit Tab and Return to send the reply without using your mouse)
  • M will bookmark the post using the Bookmarker feature

If you use the Quick Reblog feature:

  • R will reblog the post without leaving the dash
  • Shift+R will open the manual reblog page
  • D will reblog the post to your drafts
  • Q will reblog the post to your queue
  • T will open the Quick Reblog menu and put the cursor in the Tags field so you can add/edit tags. Then, hit Tab and Return to reblog without using your mouse

In addition, you can press the X key to activate and deactivate the Safe Dash feature. You don’t need to navigate to posts using J/K to use this keyboard shortcut.

Missing e Keyboard Shortcuts Tumblr (without Missing e) already allows you to navigate your dashboard using only your keyboard: press J or K to jump to the next or previous post press L to like the current post In Missing e version 2.5.0 I added additional keyboard shortcuts: press M to bookmark the current post (with the Bookmarker feature) Also added in version 2.5.0, if you use Missing e’s quick (1-click) reblogging feature (find out how to turn this feature on): press R to reblog the current post with quick reblogging press Q to reblog the current post to your queue with quick reblogging press D to reblog the current post to your drafts with quick reblogging Now, in the latest version of Missing e (2.5.10), I’ve also added: press C to open the comment / reply box for the current post Note: If you want to use the Dashboard Tweaks, Bookmarker or Quick (1-Click) Reblogging features, but do not want to use the keyboard shortcuts, you can turn them off in the Missing e settings (find out how to get there).

Also added in version 2.5.0, if you use Missing e’s quick (1-click) reblogging feature (find out how to turn this feature on):

  • press R to reblog the current post with quick reblogging
  • press Q to reblog the current post to your queue with quick reblogging

Now, in the latest version of Missing e (2.5.10), I’ve also added:

  • press C to open the comment / reply box for the current post

Note: If you want to use the Dashboard Tweaks, Bookmarker or Quick (1-Click) Reblogging features, but do not want to use the keyboard shortcuts, you can turn them off in the Missing e settings (find out how to get there).

Missing e v2.5.1 - Fixed a keyboard shortcut bug

I’ve updated Missing e to version 2.5.1 to fix a bug with the new keyboard shortcuts I added.

Turns out, if you reload the page by pressing Ctrl-R or ⌘-R, it might end up reblogging the current post before reloading the dash.

I’ve fixed this in version 2.5.1!
