The way Tumblr's search works is that it first brings up blogs that directly contain whatever your search input in their URL, and then by related titles. Since there are many blogs that can share the same titles and compete for a position in top five displayed blogs in the search results, it makes sense that a blog may not show up based on its title simply ...

FYI, I just discovered that if you type "Report a bug" into the search bar at the top of their help page, then the "Contact Support" button will appear at the bottom of the page.

To change your blog to a public blog go here: http://www.tumblr.com/blog/nameOfBlog/settings
Scroll to Password section (near the bottom)

Click "Save"
Notes:
I wasn't able to find this setting on my existing Tumblr blogs
It may be that once you post something public you can't turn it back into private ...

Depending on what you want to do with it you have a couple of options.
If you're wanting to copy it over to WordPress, you can use Tumblr2WordPress to give you a standard WordPress XML file.
If you want the whole thing, posts & images, use this Tumblr Backup to give you a tarball including everything. A .TAR file is similar to a .ZIP file, and can be ...

It is possible by via the Tumblr API, as it does provide the ability to request the Text posts for a blog and return the results as JSON-encoded objects. You can then use code to sort these results alphabetically.

I’m the author of the script linked in @oneqeightyfour’s answer. So although I’m a little late to the party, here’s a modified version of the script you can use.
I did find a one-click site that claims to do this as well, but I couldn’t get that to work. You might want to try that first?
Step 1: get a Tumblr API key
Using the API is much simpler, from a ...

Here's a way. It involves opening the developer console of your browser. That is done usually by pressing ctrl+shift+I or just F12.
After you've opened it and found the Console tab, type:
var i = 0;
(function scroll () {
if (i > 50) {
return
}
i++
window.scrollTo(0, 9999999)
console.log('scrolled ' + i)
setTimeout(scroll, 900)
})()
Then ...

Contacting Tumblr is your best bet for tracking someone down.
That being said, it seems that the general consensus from sources on children's internet safety is that Tumblr is not for children and that there is little that can be done to make it more kid-friendly (it's not as easy to restrict access as, say, Instagram). The ability to message a user ...

Since you have to use an email address to sign up you can use Tumblr's Forgot Password form to go through resetting the password.

I can't quite tell from your question whether you're looking to do this retroactively or not, but but one easy solution for this going forward is to use a service such as IFTTT (stands for If This Then That). You can add both facebook and tumblr as 'channels' and then use a recipe such as this one:
FB Image to Tumblr Photo Post
IFTTT is completely free, and ...

Mehper's answer no longer works, as Kirk Woll mentions. As of Feb 2015, you need the following URL to edit:
https://www.tumblr.com/edit/<post_id>?redirect_to=%2Fblog%2F<blog_name>
Replacing < post_id> with your post ID # (example: 406783219) and replacing < blog_name> with the domain of your blog, without the tumblr.com part (example: ...

My theme was a little different, but I figured that all you need to do is search for (Cmnd/Cntrl F) these : {LinkOpenTag} and {LinkCloseTag} and remove them.

It appears that in the past this was possible but with a very recent change made it no longer work.
This DailyDot article explained how one could previously accomplish this:
8) Filter your dash by type by using "/show/[mediatype]".
Appending “/show/text” to tumblr.com will let you see only the text posts on your dash.
This also works for photos, ...

Enable HTML input mode: https://www.tumblr.com/settings → "Edit posts using": plain text/HTML (Using other input methods (rich text editor, Markdown) may work too, but I don’t know/use them.)
Then use the HTML img element, e.g. in a text post:
<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/02/SVG_logo.svg" alt="SVG" />

Someone on the internet wrote a script for this and you can find it on Github.
You would've to change the parameters of hostname and API key to your own tumblr hostname and add your own API key respectively.
Your hostname would be something like "x.tumblr.com", (be sure to wrap it with "" marks).
You will then need to get an API key from Tumblr. To do ...

The {Host} variable returns the host name of the tumblr blog. For example, if the URL is http://foo.tumblr.com, {Host} will return foo.tumblr.com. Similarly, using {Host} for custom domains, i.e. http://www.my-tumblr-blog.com will return www.my-tumblr-blog.com.
You can use the following code for generating links:
<h1><a href="http://{Host}">{...

Answered my own question:
Within the block for each post type (for example {block:Quote}), add at the end:
{block:PermalinkPage}
{block:HasTags}
{block:Tags}
<a href="{TagURL}">{Tag}</a>
{/block:Tags}
{/block:HasTags}
{/block:PermalinkPage}
{/block:Quote}
Do not add before {/block:Posts}, as when adding tags to the main page.

Transferring a primary Tumblr blog to another primary blog is not possible (though you can transfer a secondary blog to a new primary owner).
I just received this message from a Tumblr support representative:
Unfortunately, we can’t switch blogs from secondary to primary (or vice versa), nor can we merge accounts, move blogs between accounts, or move posts ...

You can view your text posts in the archive using the link below. Know more about filtering the archive in this post by the Tumblr Staff.

However, here's the catch: All your text posts will be retrieved, even the reblogged ones.
If you want to see your original posts, you can go to this site but ...

I spent quite a bit of time trying to find exactly the solution you're looking for for my own purposes.
The best answer I've come up is Github. It's free and only takes a little bit of know-how.

Whether you're creating your SVG in Illustrator or Boxy SVG or Sketch or whatever, we need access to the raw SVG code. Open your SVG file in ...

It depends on your theme, but you're probably gonna have to find the name of the div that contains the post info, and then add some CSS to hide that div by default and show it on hover.
For example, this is the CSS I added to my theme (right before {CustomCSS} in the theme code):
body.index .post .meta {
opacity: 0;
height: 0;
}
body.index .post:...

You have two options:
Use Tumblr Originals. Reblogs are hidden and only your original posts are shown. However, all your original posts are shown, regardless of its type (text, photo, audio, etc.).
Type http://<username>.tumblr.com/archive/filter-by/text on your address bar. However, all your text posts are shown, even the reblogged ones.

Reading posts
According to the documentation, users need to opt-in to be able to find posts from NSFW blogs with Tumblr’s search:
What should I do if I don't want to see adult-oriented content?
Unless you actively choose to display explicit content, when you search for anything on Tumblr you will not see content from blogs that are marked as NSFW (not ...

Every tag has two URLs that only show the posts on a specific Tumblr.
Let’s say the Tumblr is called example and the tag is foo:
http://example.tumblr.com/tagged/foo (newest first)
http://example.tumblr.com/tagged/foo/chrono (oldest first)
You could also search for the occurence of a string (which includes tags):
http://example.tumblr.com/search/foo

This probably happens because <cite> is a custom HTML tag, while <sup> is a tag that was recognized by Tumblr. And Tumblr probably filters out all HTML tags it doesn't know, for security reasons. So whenever you switch view, Tumblr starts filtering out these parts of your text.
I would suggest you use <span class='cite'>CITATION</span&...

You need to switch the default text editor being used to adjust the HTML code from Rich Text to Plain Text/HTML in Account → Preferences → Text-editor.
The rich text editor apparently changes some of the tags such as <embed>, <table> etc to <p> tags automatically.
The plain text editor comes with HTML editing enabled by default.
