"posted from" info in tumblr log like in dashboard
How can I get "posted from" into my tumblr log like it is in dashboard? I'm pulling feeds from other blogs and twitter and would like it to clear what is from me and what comes from other feeds an twitters.
The CSS in the dashboard display seems to have a "posted_from" division (<div>) which displayed the source (just what I want!)
I tried adding something similar to the CSS for my web page template (see below) but nothing has worked.
div#imported_from {
color: {color:Description};
}
.post .regular .imported_from {
font-size: 12px;
line-height: 17px;
}
</div>

Inappropriate?You'll want to put class="{TagsAsClasses}" on the post, which'll add like .flickr, .delicious, etc. then style away
Dan Phiffer does this on his tumblog, check it out: http://blog.phiffer.org/ -
Inappropriate?Not quite what I was looking for.
If I look at my dashboard in tumblr, I see a note under each post brought from an RSS feed that says something like:
"Wheels down in Boston. Got here 30 mind ahead of sched. Guess I’ll call it even next time I’m 30 mins late."
Imported from Twitter/SiemensPLM
"some blog post"
Imported form PLM World Blog
"some other blog post"
Imported from WorldCAD Access
However, if you look at my tumber log, none of this is there, just the post. Look at http://burhop.tumblr.com you will only see:
"Wheels down in Boston. Got here 30 mind ahead of sched. Guess I’ll call it even next time I’m 30 mins late."
WOuld like it ID'ed as coming form the SiemensPLM twitterer and not me.

Inappropriate?Exactly what you want isn't possible with the current theme variables. Something like the "{block:RebloggedFrom} {/block:RebloggedFrom}" block, except "{block:ImportedFrom}" would be a good feature request
You can fake it with {TagsAsClasses}, though. e.g. a style like:
.twitter_com:After {
content: "Imported from Twitter";
font-size: 8pt;
}
I don't think you put HTML in there, though. -
Inappropriate?Thanks, Jamie. I took your ideas and ran with it. Not perfect since there isn't a way to differenciate between my posts and different imported posts but it will have to do for now.
I’m undecided

Inappropriate?Hi, Mark. With TagAsClasses by default, an HTML friendly version of the source domain of imported posts will be included. (Example: "twitter_com", "digg_com", etc.) But, this may not behave as expected with feeds like Del.icio.us that send their content URLs as their permalinks.
So, you can use that to distinguish between feeds.

Inappropriate?Check out my tumblr as well for a solution using the TagAsClasses as well: http://www.guidorosso.com/ -
Inappropriate?It'd be fantastic if the group member who actually added the feed would come up as author instead of the person who started the tumblelog.
I’m tired of hacking.
