Is there a way in Tumblr to have Next / Previous links only go to posts that share the same tag as the post you are on?
For example, if a post was tagged "Image" the next previous links would only point to other posts that were also tagged "Image".
From my understanding of the documentation, it is not possible - there are no tag related controls for permalink navigation - but wondering if anyone has come up with any ways to do this.
To view all of the posts on your tumblelog with a specific tag (let's use #image as an example), you can just type in http://urlofyourtumblelog.tumblr.com/tagged/image and all of the posts you've tagged with #image are shown. Your regular previous and next page links will navigate through tag pages just like they would on any other page.
To give an example, this would be tag page 2 of #dog:
http://urlofyourtumblelog.tumblr.com/tagged/dog/page/2

Is there a way that i can show all posts other than Home Page.. I have Made Home page as Static Page. But i am Unable to get All posts on My BLOG page in Tumblr.
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.

This is for a wordpress site, but it could be for any. I want a like button at the top of the page to 'like' the whole site. I also want a like button at the end of a post to like that post.
Ok, I get that I can create two iframe buttons, using just the site url and the post url. What i dont get is how to set up the meta tags. eg, the image field would be different (site logo vs. post image)
Furthermore, I can imagine that it would be usefull to have even more like buttons, eg on a page that listed several posts, a like button on each. I realize that too many iframes will slow or stop the browser.
Mostly i just need 2 buttons, with 2 sets of info.
Yes you can add two like buttons.
for site url button set up meta tags in your home page.
for post url set up meta tags in your post page.
So, I've searched and searched this site before posting this question -- I know there is a lot of facebook like questions -- but I can't find an answer to mine.
I have a page VERY similar to Mashable.com. They have multiple teaser articles with LIKE buttons next to each. When you click the LIKE button, you see the article thumbnail, and the article description.
I already have this set-up and it works EXCEPT for the thumbnail and description. They are wrong or not showing up at all. How can I make sure these LIKE buttons are pulling the correct thumbnails and descriptions for each of my articles.
(They are not using Open Graph I don't think, because Mashable.com has no facebook meta tags (and even if they did, the meta tags only specify one thumbnail image, and one title, and one link).
Can anyone tell me how to customise the thumbnails and descriptions for each individual news story?
Thank you!
The href in each like button needs to point to the full URL of that article, which needs to have a full set of open graph meta tags.
Run the (article) page through the debugger at http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug to make sure the correct tags are present and being detected by Facebook's crawler.
The crawler will fall back to using tags and other non-Open Graph meta tags if there aren't a full set present, but the behaviour in that case isn't easy to debug, especially in relation to the images.
Mashable's like buttons are pointing at page which do have open graph meta tags by the way, e.g. https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2F2011%2F10%2F28%2Fsteve-jobs-tributes%2F
I use the meta tags in the exact way the instructions say. So when I click on the like button, I indeed have the correct information on my facebook page.
Yet, when I slightly change the meta tags' code (for example if I put another image or if I change the description) the changes do not take effect on the facebook like button, which continues to show the previous information.
This is very disturbing, because by mistake I put same link in the meta property="og:url" for two different pages, so when someone likes one of them, the other ones like button is also "pushed". And although I've corrected the code, the problem with the like button, as I said before, remains.
You should be able to edit your Open Graph tags at any time. The only exception is title is fixed after 50 likes and type after 10k

Facebook has to scrape your pages to see the changes to the Open Graph tags. You can force this by using the debugger/linter.

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.
