Okay, so, I just managed to figure out how to do a reply. It’s not that different from what you would have to do in the last update that Tumblr did, but I’ll still include screenshots of how I managed to do it. Also to freakxnewxdance I hope you don’t mind my using one of our threads to demonstrate this.
Alright, so here goes! What you want to do is pull up the reply the other person made and copy that person’s reply like so:
Then you paste your reply into the text box provided below. For the image, what you have to do is right-click on the image and select “copy image”:
Paste the image into the reply and adjust position as needed according to where the icon was when your partner replied.
Then you go about replying as usual (since I already responded to this thread I just made a random thing tbfh). As a personal preference nowadays, I like separating my partner’s reply from mine with one of those dividing lines on the Tumblr sidebar, like so:
and then go about formatting how you normally would and also delete the reblogs. If you want to add your partner’s URL at the top feel free, though it’s rather tedious and would involve going into HTML to bring things back to normal, and for those who aren’t experienced with html… it’ll be tough. At this point I wouldn’t worry about blockquoting because I have absolutely no idea how it would turn out if I did happen to blockquote, but until Tumblr either fixes this or X-kit finds a way to create an extension to have the option of going back to the old way, this is what I can provide to help you guys with.
Until notice from either side of the argument, I hope this helps, and happy RPing!
