Editing subject lines

[Johnny Reefer]

Seems that one can edit a post, but they can't edit their thread title?

Thanx much,

Yes you can edit your thread title. Click on edit, then under the reply box it will say, submit or "go advanced". When you click "go advanced" the page will refresh and above the text box will be your thread title. I don't believe you have to fill out the "reason for change" or whatever it says on there.

That's what I did. It just added the new title to the post. It didn't actually change the thread title.
I'll try again.

Cheers,

Nope. Sorry. I must be missing something.

If there is anyone out there who has actually had success in changing a Thread title, I would very much like to hear how you did it.

Thanx much,

I tried it a few times and it doesn't change the subject in the index pages. You only see the edited subject when you are reading the message itself. When you search for threads (old or new), the search results will show the old subject.
