Is there a way..
Or
If there is a method to get Posts of All tags.
If you tag your posts with a common tag you can then create a link to those by making a new page (in the page options instead of Standard layout, choose Redirect).
Then for the redirect rule you can use something like:
/tagged/news
Or whatever tag you want. This will return all posts tagged with 'News' on your blog.

I need to make a front page with the flow of posts (which is the default on the platform) but each post should open on a new page with more detailed info and pictures. Something similar to WordPress - an index page and single pages.
The term you are looking for is "Permalink Page". You can find more info on this in tumblr's custom theme documentation. The basics is you use {block:PermalinkPage}{/block:PermalinkPage} to wrap the things you only want showing in the permalink page.
To access the permalink page of the post you include the following in each post block:
more info
It is commonplace to make the note count lead to the permalink page. The target='_blank' property makes the page open in a new tab.
I have a project, coded on codeigniter, which is basically a collection of posts by different users. While adding the fb share button and clicking on it, The image, title and description content is taken from the header of the home page and not of the page(view) where the share button is placed?
As mentioned here, The issue was that only those users could view the page who are signed in, and therefore even fb wasn't able to scrape the info from there.
EDIT: Whats important here is how FB scrapes the info. Apparantly the link you provide inside data-href if parsed by FB and they capture the og meta tags from the header on that page. However if you restrict those pages to logged in users, FB is also unable to parse the page and thus it reverts to the base URL's meta tags.
How do I make posts on a new page on my tumblr? For instance, my home page is just omyn.tumblr.com, where all my normal reblogs go. But I also have a page there with the URL: omyn.tumblr.com/journey
How do I make a post that posts to that page only? I don't really care if it goes on my home page at the same time it goes on my "/journey" page, so long as it at least shows up there.
There are a few ways to achieve this, both rely on Tumblr Pages.
One Post Only - Standard Layout
To show only one post, pick standard layout:
Add a page (via the customize screen), and pick standard layout.
Set the url to journey.
Add content to the page body.
The standard layout, use the Text Post Type, and the page body will render as if it was a Text Post.
Multiple Posts - Redirect
To show multiple posts, pick redirect:
Any post you want to show on your journey page, tag with journey.
omyn.tumblr.com/tagged/journey will display posts tagged journey.
Add a page (via the customize screen), and pick redirect.
Set the url to journey and redirect to omyn.tumblr.com/tagged/journey.
omyn.tumblr.com/journey will now show posts tagged journey.
These posts will still show up on the Index Page. It is possible to hide them using CSS or Javascript.
I have a "single page" website. Let's call it "mySite.com/index.html".
There are several different places on my page that I would like users to share via Facebook. Each of these items should display a different image and headline text, when shared on the user's Facebook timeline.
Each of these item posts should link Facebook users back to my website, "mySite.com/index.html", when the posts are viewed from a Facebook timeline.
Example:
On my page, I wish to have two different share buttons:
A. ButtonA: This button would create a picture of an elephant on the user's Facebook timeline, with the headline, "A Beautiful Elephant!". This post on the user's timeline should link back to my page, when the post is clicked.
A. ButtonB: This button would create a picture of a tiger on the user's Facebook timeline, with the headline, "A Scary Tiger!". This post on the user's timeline should link back to my page, when the post is clicked.
The Problem:
My understanding is that in order to create Facebook timeline posts which contain attractive headline text and images, I must use Facebook OpenGraph Meta tags, on the same page that is being linked to. It seems impossible to have two different sets of Facebook meta tags on "mySite.com/index.html", one outlining the 'elephant' post, and the other outlining the 'tiger' post.
The only possible solution I can think of is this:
Create a special 'Facebook Meta HTML Page' for each post I want to make. Each 'special page would only contain the meta tags for the post I wish to outline. "mySite.com/elephant_meta.html"
The body of the special page would be blank. This will work, but there is a problem: The resulting Facebook post will link users to "mySite.com/elephant_meta.html", which is just a blank page. I wish them to be directed to "mySite.com/index.html".
Solution: Create a JavaScript redirect in the body of "mySite.com/elephant_meta.html". This redirect will take users to "mySite.com/index.html".
This will work, but it feels incredibly hacky. Is there a better way?
Still finding my way on the open graph stuff as well, but the way I understand it, you can set og:url to the url that you want users to go to when they click on the link in your story on facebook. So each of your meta pages could point back to your main site page using the og:url meta tag.
I have a page containing a list of activities. I want multiple FB Like buttons: for the page itself and for each of the individual activities.
In order for the page itself to be Liked, it needs OpenGraph tags. But if the page has the tags, then the Like button, according to the docs, will ignore the url parameter of the Like buttons. From the docs:
When you use Open Graph tags, the Like button posts a link to the og:url instead of the URL in the Like button code.
Possible solution So, my idea is to create small stub pages that will only contain the Open Graph tags and a meta redirect tag to the real activity page.
Has anyone tried this? Or some other solution to the problem?
Your solution is feasible, I have tried it before: creating separate pages that only contain OG meta tags. However, the problem with this is, once a user likes the item, it posts automatically on the user's wall saying "Larry likes a link". When his friends see this, and click on the attached link, they will see a white screen (your og:meta-only pages). but since you said you will have redirect then this is good.
On the side, you had a wrong interpretation about this quote:
When you use Open Graph tags, the Like
button posts a link to the og:url
instead of the URL in the Like button
code.
It doesn't mean "When you use Open Graph tags on the root page". It means when you use Open Graph tags on the pages you were linking to in the like buttons.
Also, what it meant by "posts a link" is posting a link on the user's wall. Liking open graph pages automatically posts to wall now. It didn't say "using the link" on og:url of the current page.
