Posts begun in Press This apparently always get crossposted with whatever format is the blog's default, regardless of which format the author chose.\r\n\r\n*Example*: If an author presses a BBC article and changes the post format from Standard to Link, it will get crossposted to Tumblr as Text, not Link, when published. \r\n\r\nOr (assuming the blog's default format is Link), if an author is blogging a quote from a New York Times story using Press This, and chooses Quote as the post format, it will appear on Tumblr as a Link.\r\n\r\nSteps to reproduce using a vanilla WordPress installation (no other plugins except Tumblr Crosspostr):\r\n\r\n1. Install WordPress 4.2.2\r\n2. Install Tumblr Crosspostr plugin\r\n3. Connect Tumblr to the WordPress blog (Note: For easier troubleshooting, pick a theme for the Tumblr blog that clearly delineates between different post formats) \r\n4. Once connected, use Press This (available in Tools) to create a post from some webpage\r\n5. Change the post format to something else, either in Press This, or after saving draft and going into the standard editor to finish\r\n6. Publish and observe results on Tumblr."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/meitar/tumblr-crosspostr/issues/comments/101390411","html_url":"https://github.com/meitar/tumblr-crosspostr/issues/19#issuecomment-101390411","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/meitar/tumblr-crosspostr/issues/19","id":101390411,"user":{"login":"meitar","id":18677,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/18677?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar","html_url":"https://github.com/meitar","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/meitar/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-05-12T19:08:49Z","updated_at":"2015-05-12T19:08:49Z","body":"Was this not an \"issue\" before WordPress 4.2? The behavior you're describing (the inability to change a post's format once a post is saved, even in draft form) is to be expected from Tumblr, and is even remarked on explicitly in Tumblr Crosspostr's on-screen help. If you're not able to set a Post Format from the WordPress PressThis bookmarklet before the post gets saved (even as a draft), then I'd argue the issue here is sadly with WordPress, not Tumblr Crosspostr.\r\n\r\nIf enough people are running into this problem it might be useful to provide a workaround in some capacity but that feels a bit scope-creep-y to me. :\\"}}
