Gists in Tumblr

Displaying github gists in tumblr is not as difficult as I have seen it written. All you need to do is copy the regular embed code into your post. A couple of caveats, first, it won’t show up in the preview. Second, it seems to work best if you’re in markdown mode, instead of text or html. I have a post which uses multiple gists in a single post, so that works fine too.

Example:

gist github
