You seem to be the perfect person to ask this! Could you tell me how exactly you link one post on another??? (If I didn't explain that right, I mean how you do your: ~first ~previous ~next thing :] ) Im sure I could figure it out, but I'd rather skip the accidental deleted post while trying to figure it out heh... and thank you for your time!
I understand completely! -w- It's actually quite easy! First you copy the link you want, then when you type out some words, you highlight the one you want. Whether it's a "next" or "check this out". Once highlighted, some options will pop up.
The chain-link option is what you click, and a bar will pop up.
You paste your link in that, then hit "done"
Sometimes I've mis-clicked and the whole thing disappears. In that case I just try again and aim my clicks more carefully ^w^; after that, you'll know it worked because the word will be underlined. After I post, I often click it just to make sure I got the right link on the right word :)

It appears Tumblr recently changed a policy regarding post URL generation that makes your previous URLs invalid, which would affect master lists, cross-post references, etc.
The old URLs still work in the mobile app (for now) but they no longer work via browser.
I threw together some screen captures below showing the problem (below the cut). I've also included brief instructions on how to fix the problem.
If anyone has input or alternative solutions, please comment or reblog w/comments to help others :D
I noticed the problem a few days ago. I usually access Tumblr via mobile, but when I publish fics I use Tumblr through my browser.
Right now NONE of my links auto-created prior to 3/12/23 are working on browser, only links that were created after.
For example, I clicked on chapter 4 of a series I published months ago.
Instead of navigating to the hyperlinked page for chapter 4, the page instead functions as though you were searching the blog and gives you search results (or lack thereof).
In the example below, Tumblr says @deadbranch's blog doesn't contain a post when searching "the-killing-moon-chapter-4".
The previous URL that auto-generated when I published chapter 4 was "https://at.tumblr.com/deadbranch/the-killing-moon-chapter-4/8s73ajf05k8y"
You can see a comparison below of the obsolete URL (top) and the new valid URL (bottom).
The new URLs no longer use "at" in front of Tumblr and the initial summary words and randomized alpha-numeric string have been replaced with "www" and a string of numbers only, respectively.
To clarify, I've always published via browser, so the change in URL format comes from a Tumblr policy change, not the user switching from browser to mobile or vice versa.
TO FIX:
Go into the mobile app, click on the hyperlink that doesn't work in browser mode. Select mobile Tumblr.
Click on the three dots in the upper right corner of the post and click. Select "copy link" in the popup.
Once the new URL is copied to your clipboard, return to the page with the obsolete hyperlink, go into edit mode, and update the link.
If you don't mind your links not working in browser mode you don't have to do any of this. I believe most Tumblr users access content through the app, so this may not be a problem for most.
I use my browser frequently for editing and publishing, so this would be a major inconvenience if I left this as-is.
It's possible the Tumblr team is aware of the problem and will fix it, but I'm moving forward with updating my links anyway.
Hope this was helpful.
As mentioned previously, please comment if you have information to add or if there's a better way to fix the issue.

Why you no complete scene! Is well write.
Sorry about that, Tumblr has a lot of nonsense going on about what kinds of links beyond this hellsite you can share. Nonsense that no pornbot ever has to deal with, I note.
Cough.
The rest of the fic you are looking for is over here. Fingers crossed this actually reaches you and you are not disappointed forever.
[Yes, I am linking these based on interest priority, but if you don’t want to bother, just visit my Steemit account at https (colon, double-slash) steemit (dot) com (slash, at) internutter. Scrolling will get you there]
Also, once I reach 365 stories, they will all be published in a free anthology over at Smashwords.
