Find out if post is private on tumblr?

If a post is private on tumblr, I want to add a 'private' image to the page. Is there any way I can find this out?

Solution

  • I couldn't find any variables in the theming guide, so it doesn't seem to be possible to use a special class or id value.

    If you might like to program, you could maybe (I don't understand much of this stuff) use the API which knows "state":

    Indicates the current state of the post

    States are published, queued, draft and private

    Another (rather dirty) method could be to parse the URL path with JavaScript, because private posts start with /private/. If present, you could add a class value like "private" to the body element with JS.
