Reasons why certain tumblr v3 features were never implemented

When tumblr v3 went live with video and audio uploads I thought I would add them to Wintumblr. I got as far as adding the account limit checks and realized that: I would never use these features; there was no way to ensure they uploaded correctly. If I remember correctly there were also issues with the Vimeo account authorization - you had to be logged in to Vimeo for the whole video upload to work.

I might revisit these features one day, but for now Wintumblr is where I want it to be. I hope everyone that tries Wintumblr finds it useful and complete enough. Thank you.

Wintumblr v1.5.1 with Photo Click Through Url support is now available. Click the picture to get the new version. Please note: if your photos are not working as links then you probably have a custom theme that needs to be updated to support the photo click through Url feature.

Click-Through-Url

The Write API now includes a Click Through URL option (Thanks Marco!) This will enable you to allow someone to click your uploaded picture and be sent to some or other web address. I’ll find some time soon to implement it.

Proxy Settings are Done

I am testing out proxy settings for Wintumblr. This should allow Wintumblr to be used from behind a corporate proxy server. It seems to be working as this post originated from behind a proxy.

Holidays Kill Productivity - status update

Wintumblr now:

handles the server’s return status and message much better
includes a Validate button on the Account Management screen to allow you to check your account details

Wintumblr still has problems handling large uploads. I am experimenting with larger timeout values to cope, however the server’s response is often missed. This results in a successful upload but no notification of the success.

I will release a beta version soon with some of the updated and new features.
