tumblr-tags interview questions
Top tumblr-tags frequently asked interview questions
I maintain a comic book Tumblr, where I post the covers to every comic book that I read and other assorted comic book ramblings. I tag every post with the series name, writer, artist, publication company and publication year. Recently, newer tags (like iZombie and 2012) don't get remembered when I go to add them in the tag field when posting new issues. They still work like tags when published, but I have to type them out every time instead of having Tumblr autofill like it does with every other tag I've used up to a few weeks ago.
Is there a limit to the number of tags Tumblr can remember and autofill? And if so, is there a way around it?

I have a comic book Tumblr where I track every comic book I read (sidenote: I know this is useless, it's Tumblr). I keep track of the comics with tags (series title, publication year, writer, artist and publisher). I've noticed that some of the oldest tags on my Tumblr have stopped working even though they still appear on the post. For example, when I click on "X-Force"...
...it tells me the URL I requested could not be found.
I guess there's a limit to the amount of tags Tumblr can remember? Is there anyway to free up tag space (like deleting typo tags)? Is there any way to get these tags to work again?
UPDATE: In trying to find a pattern between which tags do and don't work. Here are the first tags I ever used (back on 1-1-10):
Uncanny X-Men (used approx. 55 times; does NOT work)
2010 (used 477 times, still works)
Matt Fraction (used 72 times, still works)
Terry Dodson (used 14 times, still works)
So it doesn't seem to have to do with how many entries are in the tag. I think it might have to do with the hyphen in the titles of some comics (Uncanny X-Men and X-Force do not work). Is that it? These used to work, I swear (I would not have continued to use tags with hyphens if they did not work).

I'm trying to edit this Tumblr theme. It doesn't show tags on the index page, but shows them on permalink pages. I've put
{block:HasTags}
{block:Tags}
<a rel='nofollow' href="{TagURL}">{Tag}</a>
{/block:Tags}
{/block:HasTags}
everywhere I could think of within {block:Posts}, including {block:indexpage} and the individual post type blocks. If I put the code in the index page block, the tags end up behind the next post and the accent border disappears if they are long enough. If I put it in the post type blocks, I can't format them.
Ideally, I want to put the tags after the info like the notes and date on the index page, but I'm not sure of how to do that.

I use IFTTT to put my liked Instagram photos into my Tumblr feed using this recipe. I would like to use the tags from the Instagram photo as tags for the Tumblr post, but the hashtags from the photo captions are not among the elements that can be used as tags in a Tumblr post in IFTTT.
From my limited knowledge of the IG API it seems like you can retrieve photos by tags or by which photos a given user (myself in this case) has liked, but I cannot figure out how/if I can retrieve the tags from a given photo (the hashtags from the photo caption) to be used as tags in Tumblr.
Is there a way to get the tags from an Instagram photo's caption separate from the caption itself?

When I put a tag on a post, Tumblr saves that tag. Meaning, when I start making a tag on a different post later, it lists suggestions for autofill from previous tags I’ve made which so far have all been saved. How do I make Tumblr stop doing this? I want to delete some of the tags which I think are already useless.

I recently tried out the ping.fm tagging feature, which doesn't seem to work as planned.
No matter if posted to Blogspot or Tumblr, the Tags never show up - the are appended as static text, not as tags.
So, is there any way to actually get the @tags working, or edit a tumblr blog theme in a way that it always appends a specific tag automatically?

I was wondering if anyone knew how to help me with changing the appearance of my tags. They look like oldschool links (underlined and blue) and it's very garish - it clashes very bladly with the rest of my theme. I'm unfamiliar with CSS coding, but all instruction helps! Here's a link to my blog to see what I'm talking about: http://spanz-spectral.tumblr.com/

I am using the theme 101 by jarredbishop and I noticed that the tags don't show. I tried using the
{block:HasTags}
{block:Tags}
<a rel='nofollow' href="{TagURL}">{Tag}</a>
{/block:Tags}
{/block:HasTags}
{/block:Posts}
method but the tags appear at the top of the page instead of under the corresponding post. Can anyone help me, please?

I rely heavily on del.icio.us (delicious.com) and would like to post select delicious links to Tumblr. This can easily be done by feeding the RSS feed for my "to:tumblr" delicious tag into Tumblr.
However, I want the post that I send to delicious & Tumblr to be tagged in the same way on both sites.
The delicious API supports outputting tag data, but I don't believe the Tumblr interface as-is pulls that data.
What's the easiest way to cross post between delicious and Tumblr? Perhaps a fancy bookmarklet that lets me decide if I want to post to one or the other and posts tags to both?
I tried Ping.fm (now dead) a while ago, but I don't believe it was pushing the same tags to both services.

On my Tumblr, every permalink page with notes, will display the usual date, # of notes and tags but if the post has zero notes, other than the captions, the rest is invisible. I have tested different codes that have succeeded but will display on my blog, which I don't want. I only want the date displayed. Does anyone have any advice?
My current code for permalink:
{block:PermalinkPage}
{block:PostNotes}
<div id="permalink">
<a rel='nofollow' href="{Permalink}"><a rel='nofollow' href="{Permalink}">{MonthNumberWithZero}.{DayOfMonthWithZero}.{Year}</a></u> / <a rel='nofollow' href="{PermaLink}">{NoteCount}</a>
<br>
<br>{block:HasTags}{block:Tags}<a rel='nofollow' href="{TagURL}" style="margin-left:0px; text-decoration:none;">#{Tag} </a>{/block:Tags}{/block:HasTags}<br>
{block:RebloggedFrom}Reblogged from <a rel='nofollow' href="{ReblogParentURL}">{ReblogParentName}</a><br>
{/block:RebloggedFrom}
<div id="notecontainer">{PostNotes}</div>
{/block:PostNotes}{/block:PostNotes}
{block:PermalinkPage}

The Tumblr theme I'm using doesn't show tags unless you click through to a post's permalink. This is what it currently looks like:
I'm trying to add tags on the next line below the note count and timestamp. I edited the HTML to include the {block:HasTags} code, so the code looked like this (cut most of the {block:Posts} section to keep the post short):
{block:Date}
{block:HasTags}
<div class="post post-meta">
<div class="post-content">
{block:Tags}<a class="tag" rel='nofollow' href="{TagURL}">{Tag}</a> {/block:Tags}
</div>
</div>
{/block:HasTags}
<div class="post post-meta">
<div class="post-content">
<a class="post-notes" rel='nofollow' href="{Permalink}">{NoteCountWithLabel}</a>
<a class="time-ago" rel='nofollow' href="{Permalink}">{TimeAgo}</a>
</div>
</div>
{block:PostNotes}
<div class="post post-meta">
<div class="post-content">
{PostNotes-64}
</div>
</div>
{/block:PostNotes}
{/block:Date}
{/block:PermalinkPage}
{block:IndexPage}
<div class="post-index-info">
<a class="post-notes" rel='nofollow' href="{Permalink}#notes">{NoteCountWithLabel}</a>
<a class="time-ago" rel='nofollow' href="{Permalink}">{TimeAgo}</a>
{block:HasTags}
<div class="post post-meta">
<div class="post-content">
{block:Tags}<a class="tag" rel='nofollow' href="{TagURL}">{Tag}</a> {/block:Tags}
</div>
</div>
{/block:HasTags}
</div>
</div>
{/block:IndexPage}
{/block:Posts}
</div>
And now the tags look like this:
The tags are almost exactly how I want them to look, they're just spaced out too far. Does anyone know of a way to fix this?

Suggested tags are useful most of the time, but if I make a typo and then reblog, then go back and fix it, Tumblr still saves that tag, which is very annoying. Even if I delete the tag from all posts with the typo, it still keeps it. Is there any way to get rid of these or some script I can download?
