- Rated 4 out of 5by brndnhrrll, 3 years agoNo longer works on Instagram. Was this an update on their side or a lapse here? Otherwise I have been loving this extension. My only wish is that I could select which blog I'm posting to in a popup, rather than selecting beforehand in the dropdown inside the toolbar.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14542586, 6 years agoOne suggestion is to allow user to choose the type of post to make.
I highlighted some text and wanted to make a "quote" post but was not given the option.
The addon is very useful other than that. - Rated 4 out of 5by Derek, 7 years agoAwesome tool! I would give it 5 stars, but as 'Anonymous user 5f25a2' pointed out, it lacks an option for adding sources in photos (and other kind of posts besides quotes), and that forces me to edit that by hand once the media is posted. It's a great time saving add-on anyway!

posted 7 years agoDoesn't the "Use the current page title and url as the caption.." setting for photos that I added a couple of versions ago fill your need for photo posts at least?
I'll see if I can add something similar for the remaining types of posts as well. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13112435, 7 years agoAn excellent extension with a history of working flawlessly.
It lacks the ability (as far as I know) to accept multiple images to upload into a single post. All other tumblr post addons seem to fail in this regard too.
Would be great to have a Chrome version as the best chrome extension now fails to work and has the annoying "attribute" of opening the dialog in a new tab (and etc.).Developer response
posted 7 years agoThanks! Uploading multiple images in a single post is currently not possible due to limitations in the Tumblr api and Web Extensions api. While the Tumblr api allows you to upload multiple images to the same post you have to send the actual binary data for the images in an array to Tumblr and the web extension api doesn't have a way of getting the binary data of the images that you want to post.
Maybe someone else will make a Chrome extension that works for you. I don't care about Chrome at all since it's an inferior web browser. - Rated 4 out of 5by Namey, 8 years agoSettings being reset is kind of expected with a rewrite like this. Should go through and reconfirm your "open popup" settings, etc.
Edit, Resolved: If you get a blank page instead of Tumblr sign-in, disable other add-ons to be able to log in, then you can re-enable them.
One gripe: I can't pick a sideblog on the posting pop-up anymore -- have to set the blog on the add-on icon before right-click to reblog. A few more steps, but nothing horrible.
