how to find flagged posts on tumblr

Anonymous asked:

This is a silly question in sure, simply I'm curious: Do you go a notification that a post was flagged? I'm just wondering what to exist aware of, and have yet to find a good, proper answer.

Not a silly question, Anon! A very valid question.

If by "notification" you mean an electronic mail or other message sent from Tumblr to me, then no, I haven't gotten whatever notifications that posts were flagged.

Merely if I gyre through my blog (on a figurer, don't know what happens in the app) I can find flagged posts because they accept a red "Your postal service was flagged" banner at the top like so:

(Male-presenting nipples cropped out of screenshot in the hopes this mail avoids incorrect flagging then it can attain the people who need the info.)

Finding flagged posts is a dull process, peculiarly since I accept fifteen,000+ to get through. Here'due south the strategy I've been using to make information technology slightly more than tolerable:

1. Sign into Tumblr on a computer.

2. Go to your Dashboard settings at https://www.tumblr.com/settings/dashboard and turn off endless scrolling. Don't skip this step! It'south super important!

three. Go to https://www.tumblr.com/blog/YourTumblrName to see your web log'southward posts. (Swap in your actual Tumblr's proper name for the "YourTumblrName" in that URL, of grade.)

four. Printing Ctrl + F (or ⌘ + F on Mac) to bring upwards your browser'south search box.

5. Search for the word "flag" (without quotes).

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Since people are even so sharing this post afterwards 12/17, delight note that Tumblr'southward bulletin on the flagged post banners seems to take changed. Yous'll probably demand to search for the give-and-take "violation" or one of the other words in the new version of the banner.

The rest of the steps described in this post should work the same, though.

6. If the discussion is establish, cheque the posts on that folio for any of those blood-red alert banners.

seven. If one of your original posts* was flagged incorrectly, click the "Review" link. Then click "Request review" in the bulletin that pops up.

eight. Click "OK" in the next message that pops up.

9. Your post will have a new, orange imprint that says "Your mail service is in content appeal."

Tumblr will (eventually) email you the results of their review.

x. Repeat steps 6 through nine equally many times as needed.

11. When you've dealt with all of the flagged posts on the first page of your blog, scroll to the bottom and click "Next."

12. Your browser'southward address bar will now bear witness you're at https://www.tumblr.com/blog/YourTumblrName/2. The "two″ ways you're on the second page of your blog, and is the beauty of turning off countless scrolling for this task. Every time you hit the "Side by side" button, the page number in the URL will change. If you lot accept to take a break from checking your posts for flags before you hit the end of the blog but desire to come up back later, you lot can call up which page you lot were on or bookmark the URL. You can also change the URL to utilise any page number you'd like to jump through large sections of your weblog's history if you're trying to detect a specific old post without scrolling forever.

*Note: If a mail service yous reblogged from someone else has been flagged, you lot won't exist given the pick to asking a review for that ane. Because I was collecting a listing of flagged mail service URLs, I did notice that if I clicked a link to a flagged rebloged mail service in a mode that caused information technology to open on my own weblog in Tumblr's little right-side-blog-viewer-thingy, sometimes there was a different option I could click to request the reblogged post be looked at. Your mileage may vary, though, as this seemed kinda inconsistent.

Stats: Early afterward all the flagging stuff went down, I used the above method to check 221 pages worth of my own blog posts. I establish 27 flagged posts–9 original posts and eighteen reblogs. I never post adult content here, then none of them were correctly flagged. (They've since been unflagged.)

I had to take a few days off looking after that, but now I've been through a couple hundred more than pages and just found one additional flagged mail service so far–the shirtless Sherlock above. While that ane doesn't violate whatsoever of Tumblr's rules, I can at least see why maybe information technology would confuse a bot that was scanning for adult content. The original batch of flagged posts I found were utterly nonsensical–I'll probably post a list of links in one case I finally get in to the stop of my blog.

So information technology's possible that the flagging bot is less trigger-happy at present than information technology was a few days agone, but I merely have my own weblog's data to proceed. And because it was flagging and then arbitrarily at the showtime and would've deleted posts that took me a long time to write, I don't trust information technology at all now fifty-fifty if it has chilled out some. Which means I'll notwithstanding have to find fourth dimension to dig through a couple more years' worth of posts for no good reason. Thanks again for that, Tumblr. 🙄

15. fruehlingssonne said: Okay but a few post I reblogged like ages ago accept been flagged (and approximate what they are non fifty-fifty porn they are just people kissing and girls naked artillery lmao) and tumblr simply "told" me. While I'm non "emotionally invested" in those post and would be willing to delete them to go along my weblog if necessary I would still similar to go along them if possible. Should I delete them or can I simply let them stay without consequences?
