XKit Update Dec 31
I’ve been really busy this last few weeks, work related stuff and whatnot.
I am really sorry for not updating XKit for a long, long time, and I’ll start working on some new extensions and bug fixes as soon as possible.
so… Is there a feature you would like to see in the next update?

XKit Update Dec 13 [2]
I am trying to fix many of the known bugs in XKit.
But in the meanwhile, you can now download Themes extension and get the XMas theme, a basic red/green theme with falling snow, to get into the holiday spirit and whatnot. =3

XKit Update Dec 13
Two bug fixes:
A bug in Quick-Inbox that could make the “return to top” button on the right side of the dashboard to not appear
A bug in Update Manager where updates wouldn’t reach the extension.
Please go to the Under the Hood tab under the X icon on your dashboard, and check that you have “xkit_update_manager” version “1.2 Rev A”. If you don’t,...

XKit Update Dec 8 [2]
The server problems has been fixed.
In order to make it really unlikely to experience such a server failure again, XKit has been updated to support several servers.
If one is down, XKit will automatically try the next one. There are currently 3 servers available. (One of them is still down, and will be until tomorrow.)
I am terribly sorry about this, and I thank you for your patience.

XKit Update Dec 7
ugh. It’s that time of day where I post something bad about XKit servers.
Well, everything was fine. The new server was great, and the new web hosting service was great. Then I happened. Apparently, during an update to XKit Update Manager, I’ve managed to break a code that delayed the update checking service.
So, the XKit started trying to fetch version checker page from the XKit...

XKit Update Dec 6
Well, after trying for weeks to get Yahoo to admit that their host was down and get them to help me, unsuccessfully, I’ve moved the files that XKit tried to fetch when you try to update/install it to another server. This should, hopefully, put an end to all this website errors.
If you don’t know what’s going on:
The XKit versions 0.4.0 and up needs to contact my servers, to...
XKit Update Dec 5 [2]
Two new ‘mini-extensions’ are available on the Extension Gallery:
Classic Customize Redirector: Don’t like the new Customize page? Enable this to get the old customize page again.
New Lines on Ask Boxes: Enables to ‘press enter’ on ask boxes. Useful if you message with people a lot.
Click on the X icon on top of your dashboard, and then Get Extensions to...

XKit Update Dec 5
Most of the server errors have been fixed. The server is now running faster, and should be less prone to crashes. I’m terribly sorry about this.
If you are still experiencing “Unable to contact XKit servers” error, please try going to www.tumblr.com/xkit_reset, which should start a clean installation. It will open a new tab and start the installation process. Please wait ~30...

Click on the X icon on the top
Go to Under The Hood page
Click on xkit_extended_kernel
Click on Re-install Extension and refresh the page.

In Chrome, there was a bug in the Quick Inbox extension that prevented users from using the bold, italic etc. buttons while creating/editing a text post.
Again In Chrome, another bug in Quick Inbox extension prevented the “Upload Photo” from appearing in the Quick Inbox ‘window’ when clicked on...

XKit Status Update - Nov 28
The server is up now, after sending some angry letters to Yahoo they apparently decided to do their jobs.
You shouldn’t, but if you are still getting a “Installation Failed” message, please send me a message. (please include XKit version and browser information.)
Also, I just added an extension called AnyName to extension gallery, which, hopefully, will allow you to register...

XKit Status Update
I know that most of you still can’t update to 0.4.1/0.4.0. If you installed 0.4.0, please update to 0.4.1 now from http://userscripts.org/scripts/versions/109272.
The update-failure is because of my webhosting service, so 0.4.1 won’t fix it, but at least it has a small code that checks the server and starts the installation process once it can connect to XKit Servers.
Again,...
