Title editing (same problem as TritonBoulder47)

**ryan** · February 14th, 2012, 06:14 PM

I updated the title for the op. I assume this has to do with editing your thread time limits.

**ChargerLighting** · February 17th, 2012, 07:45 PM

Just noticed - when I updated my thread - I can't update the main title, only the sub-title:

http://elightbars.org/f16/blue-red-w...be-bars-24284/

Its' the same problem as TritonBoulder47 had in the locked thread below...

**Zapp Brannigan** · February 17th, 2012, 07:51 PM

Same here

**MX7K_Collector_2010** · February 17th, 2012, 09:21 PM

+1 for me too.

Decided to keep the MX bar as blue, and needed amber streethawk lower filters for a project bar. Original thread still said i was lookin for red rotator filters.

I had the same problem yesterday when I tried to update my "wanted" thread...

**Jman423** · February 18th, 2012, 07:46 PM

It should be fixed now.

I just tried to update my wanted thread, and it didn't change the title that is displayed on the page, only the sub-title when you open the thread...

**Jman423** · February 19th, 2012, 01:09 PM

Did you try the method of double clicking on your thread title cell in the forum view?

I am currently encountering this same problem with editing images as the OP, any ideas? I could change the title fine.

I'd like to thank the tech team for all of their efforts on this site.

What other method are people trying? Changing the title within the thread only changes that post, not the whole thread (even if it's the first post).

I've always done it by opening the thread and clicking "edit post" at the bottom of the original post, and its always changed it before...

+1....same here..

I had always used the double click method so I guess I never noticed the change. I am unsure if the change was an intended update or an error caused by the editing permissions.

**emtanderson51** · February 19th, 2012, 08:20 PM

Hey....it will all get worked out in the end so I am not even remotely worried about it. I was able to also use the double click to update my post.

I would like to figure out if this is an error or a "new feature"....

I did...I double-clicked on it, changed the wording, and it showed a little progress circle, as if loading...But it never stopped, it just kept loading. So I refreshed the page, but the change wasn't there. For reference:EMT-BLS's FS Thread

**txfire** · February 20th, 2012, 12:33 PM

Well since unlisted closed my thread, I'll post here.

Double clicking doesn't work for me....it just hangs there with the spinning updater deal....not sure what you call it. It sat for 18 mins before I closed it.....

I'm sure its just an issue....I just wish I would have read more in depth before making my post and I would have seen this one here..... I'm an idiot sometimes....LOL. John will figure it out....

+1 im having the same issue

**TritonBoulder47** · February 22nd, 2012, 12:25 AM

I just had the same problem... I changed my Wanted thread title via the double click method, and it wouldn't update it...

**NCICUSA** · February 22nd, 2012, 02:07 PM

I have tried to correct spelling in a title and could not do it.

Is there a way for me to correct a title?

This is what we all seem to be waiting for...is how to fix it....

**JohnMarcson** · February 22nd, 2012, 04:46 PM

The inability to edit the title within the thread is a permissions issue. As far as why the above "click the title while viewing the forum method" isn't working in a mystery. It works for me and for Jman even with test accounts... we are working on it, but Jman is focusing more on the new classifieds.

Same here...I got the progress circle but it never finished loading. This was when I double clicked in the cell.

Ok. We are still looking into it... and still trying to replicate it on our end.

**Jman423** · February 23rd, 2012, 03:47 PM

Please try it now.

**EMT-BLS** · February 23rd, 2012, 03:50 PM

Jman, you are indeed the man! Worked for me.
