#theme bug

/!\ “HTTPS” error is now fixed!

I just made a quick* update in all of my themes and now they are working with the encryption!

So if you’re having this problem with one of my themes, please, take the updated version of its code. You can find all my themes in here, all of their codes are updated.

*When I say “quick” I mean that I only fixed the HTTPS issue of the themes. I still intend to make a more detailed update in all of my old themes as soon as possible.

Is your blog title invisible to others? How to fix “invisible“ blog title and description when previewing your blog - Oscar Theme Tumblr

As even the main theme account seems to have this issue, I wanted to share the solution I found.

My first day on Tumblr. What’s the first thing to do? Find a beautiful responsive theme to fall in love with. In my case, it’s an amazing @oscar-theme​. I customised the design and chose my favourite colour combo of this season - white text out of blue. 

However, I immediately noticed a problem - when I hovered over my blog name from the dashboard, Tumblr used its own mobile theme to override my background colour which means my blog title and description were invisible. A bit of an issue I think!

Googling proved to be ineffective - I’m not sure how many other themes are affected by this issue, but a solution turned out to be quite simple. 

Tumblr uses the colours chosen in edit theme mode for both your blog design and mobile design. We can use this setting to set up colour for a mobile design version and then override it for our personal blog.

So in my case I made blue my

“Title colour” in theme settings, which means now the blog preview is correct but my blog page is incorrect. 

To fix it, I went to advanced options and added this custom CSS, which changed my blog title colour to white.

#title a { color: #ffffff !important; }

Now, I have my white out of blue on my blog page and blue out of white on my blog preview page!

Hope this helps :)

Update on Tumblr Theme Reset Glitch

Lydia White, Tumblr's Product Design Lead, replied to my workaround post for the Tumblr Theme Reset Glitch with this advice:

“No themes are actually lost. This issue should fix itself with time or if you adjust any settings (since it resets the cache).”

Thanks for the tip, @lydia! If you encounter the theme reset, let me know if making a settings change restored your theme.

Tumblr Theme Reset Glitch

Keep an eye on your blog theme. Tumblr has a recent glitch where some blog themes and theme settings are resetting to their defaults. If this bug strikes your blog, try recovering your custom theme to its latest backup.

From the "Recover Custom Theme" page, choose your blog from the drop-down menu (if needed). Click the “View backups” button. Revert to the latest theme backup then check your blog theme.

If the reversion doesn’t work, seek a cached copy of your blog and check the HTML source to manually restore your theme.

MJWATSON’S TUMBLR CONTROLS TUTORIAL.

hey guys! i know a lot of people are having issues when it comes to the dashboard/follow/etc buttons not showing on themes. It’s usually the themes that are made by other tumblr users.

i am here to show you how to fix that! also, reblog to save a life.

there’s 2 options. first, go into your HTML code:

then ctrl f and look for this code:

if you find it, you’ll need to put this in before the “}”:

z-index:999999999!important; 

then save.

if you don’t have that code all together, make sure you put this code in with all the HTML:

.tmblr-iframe, #tumblr_controls { position:fixed !important; z-index:999999999!important; }

what the issue is, if you have your z-indexes higher than the tumblr controls, it gets fussy and doesn’t show them. so you just kind of need to override that and make your z-index obnoxiously high.

this is new, tumblr just decided to do this for some reason?

but yeah, this worked for me, and a few of my friends who asked me how to fix it! if you have any questions, feel free to message me.

Hey there, Interfriends

So it appears that this theme might not work optimally in Safari. Anyone out there that uses the latest version of Safari care to tell me what terrible artifacts of hideous doom rear their ugly heads around here?  Anyone happen to know an easy fix?
