Update on Retags Extension

The good news: Tumblr is bringing replies back. The bad news: they changed the design of the notes display, which broke the Retags extension. The XKit team is aware of this issue and working on a fix which should be out soon.

Additionally, some of you may have noticed that TagViewer and ReplyViewer have only been showing a small amount of tags/replies on some posts. We’re still investigating this problem, but it appears that when a post hits approximately 1,000 notes, the amount of replies or tags you can see drops off sharply. This doesn’t seem to be something we can fix immediately, or possibly at all, but we’ll keep looking into it. So far, this only affects posts that are about 2 months old or newer, but it’s possible that older and older posts will be affected as time goes on. We’ll make sure to let you know more as more information becomes available, and you can track the progress of this issue on github here: https://github.com/new-xkit/XKit/issues/1003

EDIT: its possible this may have also been an artifact of the replies changes, and preliminary testing (so far only one of our devs has the new update) suggests that this may not be an issue with the new notes popup.

Thanks for your patience; as always, you can get in touch with us by sending an ask to @new-xkit-support or @new-xkit-discussion or visiting our live support chat. If no one responds in the live chat, it means the developers are currently busy/away/sleeping! Just wait a bit and someone will get back to you!

Audio+ 0.4.3: Pop Out Controls

It happens to the best of us. We scroll away from a playing audio post, loving and appreciating its heartfelt music, promising to cherish its tunes for the next four minutes. We whisper sweet nothings to the audio post as it disappears up our dashes, gone from our eyes but not our hearts or our ears.

But then we see a Vine. A Vine that promises to scintillate and stupefy if only we could unmute it for just six seconds. A Vine whose whole experience would change our lives if only we could just pause the lovely music playing in our ears for just six seconds.

Let’s dare to take those six seconds back. In Audio+ version 0.4.3, if you scroll away from a playing audio post this cute little BB-8 impersonator will follow you until you close it, helpfully providing the pause and play buttons your short attention span needs.

(2016-02-03) One-Click-Postage only showing 5 blogs

new-xkit-extension

A lot of you probably already noticed that One-Click-Postage is only showing 5 blogs in the drop down. Rest assured, we know about it and are actively trying to fix it!

Tumblr changed something in the backend which broke our blog detection, but our team is actively trying to find a new, reliable way to detect the blogs and we’ll update XKit as soon as we can!

We’ll let you guys know when it’s fixed, but it should only be a little bit longer.

Should be fixed now! The update is in XKit Patches version 6.2.2. You can wait for XKit to update automatically, or get the new update by going to XKit > Other > Update All > Update all of my extensions.

Mac users rejoice! Four months ago, your generous donations allowed us to begin development on a version of New XKit for Safari. Today, we are pleased to announce that we have finally passed Apple review and are available on the Safari Extensions Gallery.

This is the first ever release of New XKit supporting Safari. We would like to thank Avi, Cris, Nathan, Jonathan, Miles, and our anonymous donors for making this possible.

New XKit Town Hall

We’ve been working on New XKit for awhile. If we look back, we can see all the progress we’ve made: currently the Chrome Web Store reports that there are 300,000 users of New XKit, the Firefox Addon Store reported a healthy number of users before we were taken down, and we having a working Safari build. Needless to say, New XKit is a very stable project.

Now we’re in a position to do something we’ve never done before: host a Town Hall! It’s a meeting where we discuss the New XKit organization, report on the state of this extension, and field any questions you may have. We’re doing this so we can plan our project goals as well as bring visibility to the issues that affect New XKit overall.

The Town Hall will be held this Saturday, 1/16 at 2 PM Pacific/5 PM Eastern/10 PM UTC on our unofficial Discord server. Before you ask, you don’t need to register for an account, and Discord clients are available for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android. It’s also available from the web.

Near the end of the Town Hall, we will open up for a Q&A session. Please note that the chat will be moderated; we intend to listen to and answer questions one at a time, not all at once. Furthermore, please do not ask questions about specific problems or bugs you are experiencing. Those questions should be sent to @new-xkit-support or our live chat.

And if you’re feeling eager and can’t wait until Saturday, you can hop in right now and say hi! We don’t bite, promise.

tl;dr:

  • Who: New XKit core developers and the general public (you!)
  • What: Town Hall
  • When: Saturday, 1/16 at 2 PM Pacific/5 PM Eastern/10 PM UTC
  • Where: Our unofficial Discord server
  • Why: Planning for future releases and providing visibility into our project
