Anonymous asked:

Not sure where best to ask this, but should I deinstall New XKit and only use XKit Rewritten? Or do they need to be used together in order to work?

new-xkit-discussion answered:

You can use any combination of the two that fits you. XKit Rewritten is a completely separate extension which does not make any features in New XKit magically work again, nor does it rely on New XKit to work itself. The two do not conflict, either.
If you have reasons to keep New XKit installed, keep it installed. Tumblr isn’t done updating the web experience, so features that only run on legacy-powered pages like Mass+ and Go-to-Dash remain exclusive to New XKit for now.

Just wanted to give you a heads up that all of my replies to asks are being deleted. I try to answer a question, and it won’t save the answer. I tried posting and then saving, and even copying and pasting using the html function rather than rich text. But nothing worked. I had to uninstall xkit to get my inbox to work again.

new-xkit-support answered:

This is a known issue (to us) with Tumblr’s ask editing. Since XInbox technically edit the ask in your inbox to post it, and Tumblr is discarding any edits to the answer body (even in already-published answer posts), using XInbox will discard your answers.
However, all other edits work fine, so you can publish asks without XInbox and then edit the tags on afterwards. Also, while it’s a common myth that you need XInbox to queue or draft asks from the inbox, this is untrue - you simply have to hold down the ALT key to see the options without XInbox. This means you can draft answers and then put the tags on before publishing them.
We’re trying to contact Tumblr support about it, but the support form is currently broken. The support form being broken is a known issue to Tumblr and is being worked on. For now, we simply recommend disabling XInbox.

intrusive audio ads

new-xkit-extension

If you’ve been active on tumblr lately, you may notice that they’ve started running a new type of ad in the right-hand sidebar unit. Specifically, there’s been an uptick in ads that auto-play loud audio, some of which are even un-mutable.

We’ve addressed this in Anti-Capitalism version 1.3.0, which adds a new option:

(small mea culpa: the naming here is slightly confusing. this will *always* remove the sidebar ad, even if it doesn’t happen to be one that plays audio, because we don’t have the ability to distinguish between them. the other difference is that it does it in a way that also takes care of the audio-visual component instead of just hiding the ad, like some adblockers have been doing)

let us know what you think! I’m probably going to be going to bed soon, but you can always reach us in our ask box, our support blog, or our live support chat. In general the dev team has less time to reply to asks nowadays because of both real-life obligations and the sheer quantity of asks we receive, so you’ll generally have a better time with the support chat, if you can catch one of us online. If nobody is online, you always can leave a message for us to read later. thanks for understanding!

(one last plug—If you’re interested in helping us run New XKit, for example by answering asks or helping other users with questions + problems, come stop by and introduce yourself! we don’t bite, we promise!)

“Can’t Connect To Server” Error on New XKit - Don’t Panic!

new-xkit-extension

Some of you on loading Tumblr today may have received a popup that looks like this:

This popup is in fact lying. Some of Old XKit’s services finally expired and stopped running today, and while we operate our own codebase, there are some references to the old one in a few places that triggered a notification when they went down.

New XKit still works. In fact, if you reload the page, the notification should no longer display and New XKit should still function normally.

If you are still using Old XKit, now is a great time to download New XKit!

As always, feel free to let us know if you encounter issues by submitting to our bug list or using our support chat.

current state regarding the dashboard update

new-xkit-extension

We know that the dashboard update isn’t liked by everyone. We’re currently working on an extension that allows various changes to how reblogs are shown, including but not limited to decreasing the margin in replies and going back to the “old” blockquote look. When this will be released is unknown (we’re working hard on it), so wait comfortably with the idea of a fix coming soon™.
