Tumblr static pages doesn’t like URLs where you post a variable like:

yourtumblrURL.com/tumblrpageURL?ref=myvariable . You receive a page not found error.

I added a # before the variable segment to hack it a bit which helped to kid Tumblr:

yourtumblrURL.com/tumblrpageURL#?ref=myvariable

The problem was on Facebook. Facebook didn’t recognize these pages at all although the pages are accesible. On the Facebook URL Linter a friendly note was telling me that these URLs were receiving 501 error..

In the end my solution was to remove ? and = signs and create some sort of mutant solution to make both parts happy. Facebook loves them, and on Tumblr they’re accessible.

yourtumblrURL.com/tumblrpageURL#refismyvariable
