3 months ago This project is quite outdated, and still requires Python 2.7
But there's a fork that should work with Python 3, definitely try that one instead: https://github.com/cebtenzzre/tumblr-utils
I'm a complete newbie and I understand absolutely nothing of what I'm doing but I've tried following the beginner instructions and the video tutorials, and made progress only to get stuck at this point.
I got to the point of running the tumblr_backup.py BLOGNAME in command window, but when I tried to I received this
line 12, in
from httplib import HTTPException
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'httplib'
I'm using Python 3.12 and downloaded the most recent version of tumblr-utils, I've added the API Authentication Key from tumblr, I installed the youtube.dl thing. Please be kind and assume you're talking to someone with about as much knowledge of coding as the average three year old.
Thank you.
