  • Changing a Thread Title

    Can all Moderators change a Thread Title or is that a resticted privledge? There is a Mac Thread Title that I would like to edit to be more informative, but I don't now if I can do it, or if so how.

    I think only an admin can do that, by writing directly into the files, but of course I can't be sure.

      You are correct. People with Moderator Status can only edit or delete posts... or move, close, archive, delete, or top/untop threads. You need additional status to edit a thread title.

        Thanks. that's what I thought, but I wasn't sure. Maybe I'll start a new thread with better title and link the two together.

          Just let me know which thread, and what title you would like, and I can change it for you. Due to the general nature of the OTF, the Admin here decided it might be a useful ability for me to have

            Yeah, I have noticed that at CGN where I cannot do certain stuff. It would be a handy addition to the UBB system though if implemented if a mod could change a topic name by simple means (ie, not having to edit directly like an admin has to)
