Hi, i’m a new tumblr user and i’m using the mobile app, and i just came across your “tumblr how to” post and it’s super helpful so thank you so much. I wanted to ask about something, sometimes when people color their words like this they do other stuff like add more than one color to the same word hut not like this, the colors blend together. So i wanted to know if there’s a way to do this on app bc i don’t have a laptop. English isn’t my first language so sorry if my explanation is vague. Thank you, hope you have a good day!!
Tumblr ‘How To’s
Thank you! I’m happy to know that I could help. And don’t worry, you explained it just fine. (English isn’t my first language either btw)
I didn’t know how to do this so I searched about it. The unfortunate thing is that in order to do this, the ‘text editor’ of post needs to be changed from ‘Rich Text’ to ‘HTML’. And while this change can easily be done on a laptop, there’s no way to do it neither on the mobile Tumblr app nor on Chrome browser on mobile. And it sucks!
Apparently this option to change the text editor used to be available on mobile, but the recent Tumblr updates have discarded that feature for some reason. So now while posting/editing posts through mobile (whether on app or browser), the only text editor available is ‘Rich Text’, which can change colours of letters like you did in your ask but it CANNOT make them blend in together like in a gradient.
Just putting this out there:
I found this amazing and super easy tutorial by @kylos . It’s made for laptop users but it’s easy to follow on mobile too. I tried it myself and it worked more than fine for most of the steps. But as I said, since we can’t access ‘HTML’ text editor on mobile, we can’t implement this to the last step.
I tried finding more ways to do it, but since Rich Text doesn’t offer gradients and HTML just isn’t available on mobile, there’s really no way about it. I’m sorry I couldn’t help this time :(
In case I stumble upon a solution for this -which I think is highly unlikely but still, I’ll add the new link in my masterlist)
