How to Add a Description on Tumblr: Your Ultimate Guide
Are you wondering how to add a description to your Tumblr? Well, buckle up because it’s about to get a bit technical and no, you don’t have to go back to 2014 to do it (thank goodness!). Whether you’re using the app or the good ol’ desktop version, I’m here to help you unravel this mystery.
First things first: Are you editing this description through the Tumblr app or the web? The method may vary slightly. If you’re on the app, it’s pretty straightforward. But hey, if your Tumblr layout is looking a little too customized, that’s where things get fun.
In most cases, you could be dealing with some pesky CSS that’s got its grips on the appearance of your description. If that’s the case, you’ll need to roll up your sleeves and dig into the CSS instead of just the standard HTML. You simply need to find the associated class tag in your layout. Once you’ve found that, get ready to unleash your inner coder!
Here’s how you can do it:
To customize your description using HTML tags, you can use these options:
- <font style=”font-size: 12px”>your text</font>
- <p style=”font-size:12px”>text here</p>
- <span style=”font-size:12px”>text here</span>
If those nifty tricks don’t quite cut it, you might have to edit the {Description} tag directly in your layout. Remember, Tumblr has changed a lot of rules recently, so tread carefully.
Now, if you’re feeling adventurous and want to go a bit deeper, you could insert some CSS styling directly in the <head> of your HTML document like this:
<style> .example p { color: #0000FF; /* Change this to your desired color */ padding-top: 5px; } </style>
Replace .example p with the class or ID you want to tweak. Or if you’re more inclined to just go with straight-up HTML editing, tweak the <p> tag where you see fit.
