Dear Lazy Tumblr,

If I change my tumblelog’s URL, what updates automagically and what doesn’t?

Thanks,

Tenterhooks, Brisbane.

(Assuming you’re talking about using a custom domain with your existing account) – Been a while since I did it, but I’m pretty sure everything except hard coded references within your theme will be automagical. I’m sure Bill used theme variables, so the pain should be minimal. Bonus: old references out there in the noosphere to thatguyben.tumblr.com will still work (it’s how I navigate directly to tumblelogs when I can remember the username but not the URL).
