Slight error! by Nathan on 08-06-2005 at 02:17 PM
Hiya all,
When you edit a name of a thread it changes the first post and the title on the list of threads. BUT it dosnt change it after the first post. So say i have a thread its called boo i edit it to boo-boo but the other posts (were it says the name in bold) dont change why!?
Sorry if there has already been a thread about this.

because if you click post reply, you will notice that there is a box called "Post Subject" and you can put your own subject in it like I have done. So when you click Post Reply, the post subject is automatically filled in for you with the current name of the topic.

I like doing that, but yah you would have to get a mod or admin to change all the post titles. But I don't really think a modmin would waste their time just to do that.

You can change the icon too 
Can I ask why we're all bothering with this?
