    Default Ability to edit thread titles please - edit test

    Please can this be turned on? It's frustrating when you make a typo, and it can help in Classifieds threads when something is sold (or a posted price is changed)

    Thanks.

    If I click Edit on the first post of a topic I start and then "Go Advanced" I can change the title. Does everyone not have that option?

    It doesn't change the thread title.

    for example I just did it on the first post - it changes the Post title - not the Thread title

    Ah. Never used it- just assumed that was the function.

    Then I give a massive +1 to the suggestion!

    I too would like to see this feature, for the reasons mentioned! It would particularly help in the classifieds thread.

    I will have a look for this option - but I am not sure it is possible....

    I found that I can edit thread title a la http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mpD0S5GsaY (I did it in this thread : http://www.musicradar.com/forum/show...930#post946930) BUT there seems to be a time limit as I can't change the title of any of the threads I posted a while back. This seems to be the 'Time Limit on Editing of Thread Title' option?

    http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/v..._group_posting

    So maybe if this were bumped to a month's worth of minutes, or something?

    But I've never been a vBulletin mod so I may be missing something.

    Anyway it would be great if we could edit titles for, say a month... (43 829 minutes!)

    Think you can if nobody's replied, or something.

    Yup- I just tried it on an old thread and a new one. Double clicking works if you're the only poster, but as soon as someone else posts it's fixed
