Customization Guide

last updated: June 10, 2015

You can access these options through your blog’s Customize page:

appearance options: colours, fonts, images, and sidebar

navigation and custom links

Disqus integration

Google Analytics integration

☞ new/updated

Appearance

Colours

Background

☞ Post Background: background colour of posts and sidebar description.

Body Text: main text.

Secondary Text: supplementary text such as post info (reblogs, date, notes…) and answer post labels.

Accent: links, tags on hover; also link post background colour.

Accent Hover: links on hover.

Tags Colour: tags, page navigation, day/search/tag page headings, and footer text.

Important: make sure this is visible on your background!

Link Post Colour: text on link posts. Make sure it shows up on your Accent colour.

Blockquote: blockquote border, horizontal lines, dashed lines, footer border

☞ White Like and Reblog Buttons: enable this if you have a dark Post Background.

Fonts

☞ Google Fonts: input the name into the field to use; leave blank to use a font from the drop-down menu.

☞ the theme default is Source Sans Pro.

Note: sometimes Google Fonts don't display in the customization window—save, and check your actual blog to see it.

Font Size: default is 16px. I recommend against going smaller than 12px to maintain readability.

Images

Background Image: a tiled background; remove to use Background Colour.

Resource recommendation: Subtle Patterns.

Layout

☞ Right Sidebar: enable to display sidebar on the right side, instead of the left.

☞ Fixed Sidebar: when enabled, the sidebar will stay fixed on your blog even as you scroll.

Important: don't enable this if you have a lot of content in your sidebar, as content towards the bottom may be hidden on smaller screens.

Navigation & Links

Show RSS/Random/Search

☞ Show Copyright: disable to hide copyright info in the footer.

Custom Links

These show up in the sidebar. You can add as many as you want through Tumblr pages:

From your blog's Customize page → Add a page.

Enable 'Show a link to this page' to add it to the sidebar; disable it to hide it.

Save.

I've also written a separate guide on how to add tags to the sidebar.

Note: Links may not show up in the Customize page—check your actual blog to see them.

☞ Disqus

Enter your shortname in the provided field to enable.

☞ Google Analytics

Enter your tracking ID (eg. UA-XXXXXX-X) in the provided field to enable.

Support

Installing and customizing: Check Tumblr’s Blog Customization page for general theme info. For specific customization help, check my support blog to see if I've answered a question about it. If not, feel free to drop me a message!

Grown-ups like numbers. When you tell them about a new friend, they never ask questions about what really matters. They never ask: ‘What does his voice sound like?’ ‘What games does he like best?’ ‘Does he collect butterflies?’ They ask: ‘How old is he?’ ‘How many brothers does he have?’ ‘How much does he weigh?’ ‘How much money does he have?’ Only then do they think they know him. If you tell grown-ups, ‘I saw a beautiful red brick house, with geraniums at the windows and doves at the roof…,’ they won’t be able to imagine such a house. You have to tell them, ‘I saw a house worth a thousand francs.’ Then they exclaim, ‘What a pretty house!’

The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (via ontothawin)
