Every time I open tumblr in chrome, this message appears. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the new xkit and it still appears. Do you have any idea why?
We do have an idea why, and while it looks like this might no longer be happening, this will be fixed in New XKit version 7.7.1. The 7.7.1 update will be released in the next few days.
This is what comes up everytime I try to archive a post from a user’s blog
Just fixed this!
so i was talking to my friend and i realised there is no “Respond” button, i can answer asks though, i took this after the notes catastrophe so idk if it’s either the extension or Tumblr
This is a Tumblr problem. If everything started running super slow for you right after notes came back, this is also a Tumblr problem. To quote the other dev, “They probably fucked up a migration and are now running off of backups with everything on fire.“
this came up even just switching from text submission to photo submission on your blog. i just got all my settings done, and it took a fair amount of time. is it really necessary to reset?? one click posting also suddenly stopped working when this started popping up. my other extensions are adblock, ponify, an rss feed reader, tampermonkey, and a simple highlighter. browser is chrome. ((thank you so much for all youre doing it is so cool!! and im very grateful!! i hope i get a reply but please take your time and dont overwork!!))
Thank you very much for the submission and for the kind words!
This bug was introduced about an hour ago. If you update to Tag Replacer version 0.4.1 it will go away. Resetting is (thankfully) almost never the answer.
This is some very broken shit.
This looks similar to another bug that started when someone clicked the “xkit installer” in the extension browser. Did you also click that? If not, could you tell us what your browser is and what extensions you’ve installed?
General PSA: don’t click the “xkit installer” in the extension browser. It’s an artifact of how we reimplemented extension downloads, and I’ll be asking the other developer about hiding it when they get online.
I’m not the anon that asked about it, but here’s a screencap of what this post is talking about - the white new post bar that normally stays at the top gets dragged down with everything else.
Could you please tell us what extensions you have installed? This looks like an extension-related issue. Thanks.
So I installed Xkit, and it didn’t show up of my browser. I am using the latest version of Firefox, is there something I should do differently?
At least two people are having this issue, which is sad. But you’re not alone! A good first step for hopefully fixing this is to open the url “about:config”, and click past the scary warning.
Once you’re there, search for xkit7. Then right-click on extensions.xkit7.xkit_installation_complete and extensions.xkit7.xkit_cached_blogs, selecting “Reset”. As a last resort you can also reset extensions.xkit7.xkit_installed_extensions can also be reset.This should trigger XKit’s install dialog once you refresh Tumblr. Let me know if it doesn’t, because that means this problem is more insidious than I thought.
hello! i am using the latest version of chrome and have uninstalled old xkit (losing my archived posts, i should have seen that coming though). however, when i drag the file and install the new extension on chrome, every time i open a new tumblr page i get this:
and the extension will not successfully install. any ideas as to what could be going wrong?
sorry i got it workin, had to disable stylish for it to install (after which i could re-enable it), and i don’t know if someone has already told you this but the quick queue system is not working for me :c thank you so much for doing this!!!
I’m posting this in case anyone else was having the same issue. I’ll add the quick queue system to our to-do list.
I disabled the old xkit and installed the new one, but the xkit icon doesn’t show up in the header bar. Did I install it incorrectly?
Are you using an old version of Firefox? This error happens when you try to install XKit on an old version of Firefox. If this is the case, you should update to Firefox 39. If not, can you send us what browser and version you’re using?
