Three simple tips when it comes to troubleshooting.
- [Chrome Only] If XKit keeps re-installing itself:
It’s because you clear your cache/history. On Chrome, this also causes XKit to lose its settings. There isn’t much I can do about this, sorry about that. - Update and Reset
Only the latest version of XKit is supported, since supporting only one version is hard enough for one man to handle. If you are experiencing problems, please upgrade to the latest version, and reset XKit by going to www.tumblr.com/xkit_reset. - Check the Troubleshooting tool
The online troubleshooting tool helps you find and fix the problem, and let me know if you can’t. =3
Thank you.
Quick-Tip #2:
In case you didn’t know, the XCloud panel under the XKit Control Panel let’s your back up your XKit settings on STUDIOXENIX servers, so you don’t have to reinstall/re-customize all your extensions if you uninstall XKit or switch to another computer/browser.
Quick-Tip:
- The icons always reblogs to your main blog.
- The button reblogs to the blog selected.
- When you select the caption and press space once, it deletes the current caption on the post before queue/draft/reblogging it.
You can remove captions while using One-Click Postage and that small box that appears when you hover on one of the quick-reblog icons.
To do so:
- Hover over the icon (Reblog, Queue, Draft)
- Click on the Caption bar
- Press space bar once
- Click on the “________ Now” button.
- The post will be reblogged/drafted/queued without any captions.
Don’t like the new “Sliding New Posts” box? Want to see tags in smaller boxes? Want to remove radar and much more?
