Good news everyone. I went ahead and updated Tumblr Savior so that it will work with both versions of the dashboard so regardless of what browser and user agent you’re using it should work alright. I’ve got some issues to sort out with source hiding and tags for blocked posts on the old style dashboard. Look for that in the next update. If you’re wondering where v0.4.7 went, there was a problem with the Chrome manifest so I had to bump versions again.

As a little bonus, I got context menus working in Opera and fixed them in Safari as well. No luck for Firefox just yet, but if someone wants to hack on it, I do take pull requests.

By the way, I’m looking for work so hit me up if you could use a crazy software developer.

You can install Tumblr Savior v0.4.6 from here until Mozilla gets around to publishing my update on their site. Or you could just get Chrome and have up to date extensions all the time.

I also fixed the Chrome version of TumTaster to work with the new dashboard. There’s now just a nice download link at the bottom of the post. It only works on the dashboard and only for Tumblr hosted audio. Get it while it’s hot.

Alright, I’ve updated Tumblr Savior to work with the new Tumblr dashboard. I’m only releasing v0.4.6 for Chrome and Firefox at the moment since I don’t see the new dashboard on Safari or Opera. I’ll keep checking back every few days to see if they get updated as well and will push out a release for those browsers when they need it.

I’m a bit peeved at Tumblr for this update. It sucks to have to support different versions of the dashboard for different browsers. I don’t understand why they are restricting the new dashboard to just Chrome and Firefox. The fact that they aren’t talking about this update at all doesn’t help either. Get it together Tumblr!
