hi :) my i'm trying to put links to my networks on my other blog theneighbourhoodx (you can see it when you go to the moon and a side tab opens) but instead of the networks badge you can only see a failed icon, how do i manage for to actually get the network badge there? thank you already x

try retyping the quotation marks, because most of the times when you copy paste quotation marks into your HTML, you have to retype it

so let’s say its this: ”bahblah”>”blahhh.com”>

retype the ” “

How to have an image inside your banner

Hello :) So I’ve recently changed theme and I don’t know how to get it to open my post (for exemple, if you go on my blog and click on a post to reblog it) in a new tab. I know this is confusing, but could you please help me? Thanks xx

if you want the post to open in a new tab when you click it, insert target="_blank" to the proper area. I can't tell you exactly where to insert it because I do not know how your theme id coded though :/ 

it should look something like this in the end though: 

If you aren't able to locate it, message me again with your theme code :)

When I save my blog this thing shows up that says "1 beauty" and when I click it, it leads me to all this info on my blog and like what browser I'm using and stuff. When I'm editing my blog it doesn't show up so idk how to get rid of it.

you should be able to find this code in your HTML:

var ref = (''+document.referrer+'');var w_h = window.screen.width + " x " + window.screen.height;document.write('<\/script>');

Just delete that :)

Ohand btw thats my theme :3 hehe thanks for using it!

I made a page called fashion so I could tag pictures of clothes and theyd show under this page. But it's just made everything anyone else tagged fashion as well come up on this page which is not what I want! what do I do?

to create a ''tag'' page, the page has to have this url: yourblogurl.tumblr.com/tagged/fashion (or replace fashion with whatever word you want) BUT the picture must be tagged with the same word as well.

heya! I have this problem where my first bubble tabs's box gets overlapped by the second bubble tab when I'm hovering over it. how do I fix that? thanks :))

um well you can either move your second tab more to the right, or make the width of your first tab smaller

so option 1:

go in ur HTML and find #tabs

then look for left:

change the number to a bigger one .. so like if its already 80px; change it to 130px;

option 2:

go in ur HTML and find #tabs2:hover

then look for width:

change the number to a smaller one .. so like if its already 200px; change it to 150px;

my theme wont show photo sets? it shows up on my dashboard but on my blog it just doesn't appear at all. thanks for the help

i'm very sorry, but some themes are just made to not accept photosets :/

hello, even though i deleted it theres still a instagram badge at the top of my blog in the left corner. ive changed my theme to see if it helps but nope no luck, any idea of what i could do?

in your HTML, you should be able to find a code similar to this: 

href="http://instagram.com/amberkew?ref=badge" class="ig-b- ig-b-24">src="//badges.instagram.com/static/images/ig-badge-24.png" alt="Instagram" />

so just ctrl+f and search for instagram and find a code similar to the above^

once you find it, just delete it :)

Hii, I can't get my favicon to work I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong

You can add your favicon directly into the theme code:

1. Find this code in your html:

2. Replace {Favicon} with the url of the image

Hi there :) I recently installed and spent ages putting together a tags page only to find that it didn't work! Whenever I click a specific tag it comes up with no url found? Is there something wrong with the coding or could it just be something else? -Thanks for the help-

Creating a tagged page is quite simple. Firstly, you must tag the post with the desired tag (ex: dog). You will now be able to find this post under the link: yourblogurl.tumblr.com/tagged/dog

If you want to ''share'' this link with others on your blog, simply put the link above somewhere in your html code (ex: in the sidebar)

hi, my theme (which i found somewhere on some site, its not like one of the ones tumblr offers) doesn't show my tags, although my posts show the tags in dashboards. i was wondering if you could provide some coding to enable tags/tell me how to fix it? thanks!

To make the tags visible on your blog, here are the steps to follow:

Click on ''Customize''

Click on ''edit HTML'' The theme code will then show up.

Find the following line in the theme code

{/block:Posts}

     4. Insert the following code so that it looks like this:

{block:HasTags} {block:Tags} {Tag} {/block:Tags} {/block:HasTags}{/block:Posts}

Then refresh to be check if it works!

Hey guys I want to put a banner on my blog, how do I do that?

If your theme doesn't already have the option to upload a banner/pic, go inside your html and find the desired area you want your banner to show up on and then insert

I sent an ask on your other account/page, but I am using theme 06 and I can't seem to change the blog title. I will type it in and push save and preview and all of that, but it won't change. And whenever I try to change the name of the "links" the link itself just disappears...

sorry i'm late, but theme 06's title is a banner :P so you'd have to change the banner
