Hello, Fukuo!

I'm using your Empati Theme, and I love how customizable it is, but there are a few things I was curious about. I tried to look up the answers before bothering you, and had no luck.

If you don't have the answers to these questions or the time to answer them, that's fine, I still greatly appreciate the themes you provide!

Is there a way to have photos show up as the preview for photo & text posts? My current format is a line of text as a title and then the image, if I make sure the image is at the top then it shows the image preview, but otherwise it will show the document icon. (this one isn't nearly as complicated since I know I can reformat my posts, it would just be a long process)

Is there a way to add comment & share buttons on posts, and move all of the buttons to the bottom, similarly to the way there are on the dash?

Do you know if there is a way to add in infinite scrolling? I've tried multiple variations of different code, nothing has worked.

And my final questions are would it be too difficult to add additional social media buttons similar to the facebook, twitter, youtube, ect, and have you considered making their order a slide and drop for rearranging? I would love to add some additional sites, but the other link option works for a splash page.

There are so many wonderful things about your theme! I love how the grid layout turns my images into a digital gallery, and how easy it is to view the rest of the post. Thank you again so much for making such wonderful themes!

Hello there! 👋

Thank you very much for using the theme, and I really appreciate that you've formatted your questions as lists; it makes it easier for me to scan, haha 🥸🤝

So here are my answers to each of your questions below:

Is there a way to have photos show up as the preview for photo & text posts?

To answer this, allow me to give you a bit of context.

Tumblr has a thing called NPF (Neue Post Format) — where every post created in a new beta editor allows us to put multiple types of media in the same post.

Previously, before this, we could create posts based on their post types, called "legacy post types." It's called "legacy" because Tumblr has been moving away from this for a long time (I believe they started this around 2018).

The thing is, with this NPF, it's very difficult to differentiate which one is a text post and which one is a "photo" post since the theme engine cannot differentiate these post types anymore (every post created in NPF is mostly categorized as "text").

My approach in building this grid theme is by manually detecting the media block in the posts:

If the image is at the very top of the post, it will show as an image.

If the image is not at the very top (it starts from a text block), then it will show the document icon.

So I apologize that there is no workaround for this in the meantime 🙏

Is there a way to add comment & share buttons on posts, and move all of the buttons to the bottom, similarly to the way there are on the dash?

The theme engine on Tumblr doesn't have the ability to have the comment/reply system similar to the dashboard, unfortunately. I really wish they did.

As for the "share button" on posts, I will consider including this in the next updates!

Do you know if there is a way to add in infinite scrolling? I've tried multiple variations of different code, nothing has worked.

Implementing infinite scrolling can result in a code break in the grid layout posts. I have tried including this in the first iteration when coding this, but to no avail 🥲

Also, I am not a fan of infinite scroll because of this reason: https://www.tumblr.com/eggdesign/649014437609668608/ooh-different-anon-but-can-i-ask-why-you-dont-like?source=share

But I will consider adding this in the future since it's a highly requested feature 🚶🌦️

And my final questions are would it be too difficult to add additional social media buttons similar to the facebook, twitter, youtube, ect, and have you considered making their order a slide and drop for rearranging? I would love to add some additional sites, but the other link option works for a splash page.

When it comes to rearranging the order of the social media buttons, there is no way to do that in the Tumblr Customizer.

Unfortunately, there is not, and the customize page has not been updated since 2015 (which is a shame; Tumblr should also pay attention to user experience in customizing the theme).

Regarding additional sites, what other sites are you thinking? I will consider adding this to the theme!

Hopefully, this answers your questions, and please let me know if you have anything else. Thank you.

Cheers.
