How can I have a submission section on my tumblr? - michellegw - 04-08-2014 04:08 AM

My friend was in a car accident and is in a medically induced coma right now, so I've made a tumblr page called "Letters to Donovan" so I can write him letters of what's been going on. I thought that it would be nice if other people could write him letters as well for him to read, so I enabled the "Submit" link, but I dont want submissions to be on the main page with my letters. Is there a way to make a "submissions" link so on my page, he can click on a link that will take him to another page with everyone elses letters? Hope this made sense. Thanks.

What I would do is create a side-blog (which you can do and have it linked to your main, so that when you sign in you can access both) and enable the Submit box on the side-blog. There should be a thing in the top right corner that shows the name of your blog, hover over it and it should give you the option to create another one. Have people submit letters to THAT blog, and then when editing your blog theme you can create a page that takes him to that second blog to read the additional letters.

You can create a page (http://www.tumblr.com/customize/, then to the bottom of the left part ‘+ Add a page’) and copy/paste every submission there.
