using javascript on tumblr pages – how to ask support for permission

✧ What is happening?

As of early May 2022, you might have gotten this message when trying to save edits on your custom pages or when trying to install new ones:

“Looks like you’re trying to add some Javascript or invalid html to your page. You’ll need to contact Support if you’d like to use Javascript.”

✧ Why is this happening?

Tumblr is preventing potential malicious uses of javascript and decided to ban any form of javascript on your pages, and for now the only way to re-enable it is to “contact Support”.

More info: https://help.tumblr.com/hc/en-us/articles/5869629271319

✧ How to contact support:

Just “contact Support” is vague enough in itself, so here’s a quick guide on what to write in your request to them so you can get approved asap. Please note that it may take some time for them to process your request. This exact method isn’t guaranteed, but here’s what I did that got me approved within a week.

1. Go to https://www.tumblr.com/support

2. In the Category option, choose “Customizing your Tumblr”.

3. In the message box, list out all the blogs you want to use custom pages on. Then, give a brief description of what you use those blogs for. You only need to state the blog names, *not* each of the custom page urls, or the javascript file links. Here’s a template:

(Remember the please & thankyous! Staff are flooded with requests right now so be mindful).

4. Skip the Attachment part.

5. For the Relevant Blog option, pick your main blog (the very first blog you created on your account)

6. For the Account Email, enter the email you use to sign in to Tumblr

7. Complete the Captcha and wait for the tick ✓ to show

8. Click Next.

9. You’ll reach the “Does any of this help?” screen. No, it does not. Scroll to the bottom and click “No, send my thing”.

And done! You’ll receive a confirmation email from staff that they’ve received your request. They will not send you a reply if your blogs have been approved for javascript usage. You need to check your custom pages every few days to see if you can save any edits, or if you can install new ones.

✲ edit: they do send you a reply, but you might’ve already been granted javascript usage approval *before* they send an email back!

⚠︎!! First, check your post editor, make sure the new Tumblr editor is disabled (It needs to be disabled for us to edit the post's HTML).

• Write your text, make sure everything is right because you won't be able to edit it later.
• Open the settings of your post, they are in the little brake that appears when you go to post.
• In the option of "Text Editor" select "HTML".
• Copy the part of the text of your choice to make the gradient and go to this site (click here).
• Paste your text in the first field and in the second space your code will appear, where the colored buttons appear, is where you will choose the colors of your gradient, use this site (click here) to choose the colors if you prefer, after having done this whole process, click on "run" and your code will appear with the preferences previously selected.
• Copy the generated HTML code and paste it into your post, replacing the original text with the generated code.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤYour text will look like this!

♡ꜜ Before posting your post, click "preview" to see if the result is good and ready! I hope I have helped.

I recommend using colors that are very different from each other, so the gradient effect will be more visible and also leave the text in bold.

Oh... and sorry if it's bad, it's my first tutorial… I promise I'll try to improve.
