Old Tumblr Dashboard

Takes the Tumblr Dashboard back to how it looked before the update ruined it

Old Tumblr Dashboard - Chrome Extension for Classic Look

'Old Tumblr Dashboard' is a Chrome extension specifically built to reinstate the traditional look and feel of Tumblr's dashboard, before it underwent significant changes due to an update. With this extension, users can revert to the earlier version and enjoy the familiar layout. Notable adjustments include the Main post container width and post type selection width corrections to ensure user-friendly browsing. However, the drop-down for blogs remains unchanged.

Extension summary

This extension is one I started to develop privately to make the Tumblr dashboard look the same as it used to before a big update which changed it significantly, I thought many people might want to use it as they dislike the dashboard so thought I would publish it. The only thing I couldn't fix is the drop down for blogs now.

========== Version 0.2 ============ • Main post container width adjusted so it's not overly wide as per the latest update made by staff

========== Version 0.3 ============ • Fix post type selection width which was broken with the last update
