Hi guys. I know something is going on with Tumblr and purging blogs (I think it has to do mainly with NSFW blogs?) today. If you’re like me and have a ton of stuff on here you’d never want to lose, there is a way to sort of “backup” your tumblr just in case. I know a lot of you guys write and create on here and you don’t want to lose that work so it’s pretty simple if you want to do it on your own blog.
Basically, when you’re on the desktop version, go to “Edit Appearance” for your blog. Once there, scroll all the way to the bottom and you’ll see something like this called “Export”:
If you’ve never done it before, you’ll only have the “Export blog title” button. When you hit that, it’ll say “Backup processing” next to it. Granted I just did mine and it took almost 3 hours and it’s probably going to end up being like 8GB so FYI on that upfront. When it’s done, the “Download backup” button appears and the date is whenever you did your latest backup. It puts everything in a ZIP file you can download to your computer and save where ever you want. It turns all off your posts into HTML files (more on that in the link below). It ain’t the prettiest thing in the world but all your hard work will still be saved there.
