Implemented Allow users to change thread title x-seconds after posting thread

[Sir nick]

Hello guys,

As i made my thread like/dislike i messed up with the title and i think when you go to edit your first post you should be able to change the title within a certain amount of time.

I find it odd that you can edit a post indefinitely without anyone knowing.
And 4 seconds after you post something and you want to tweak the title ... you can't.

This is one thing I'd like to see changed. It's easy to make a simple spelling mistake when writing a thread title, the option should be there to edit it based on "time set" by admin, same as thread content.

Don't worry, it says that it's coming: http://xenforo.com/community/thread...-seconds-after-posting-thread.3771/#post-6385

Yes, but it's been "coming" for a year and a half now...

It's coming very slowly?

Any year now.

Still coming, don't worry.

I hope its coming, my one and only major gripe, with both user complaint and moderator time suck. I've had bother with the renaming plugin as well and had to disable, but it should be a core feature. Especially so users can update thread prefixes.

Get Syndol's User Essentials addon.
It's a bit pricey but users not be able to edit titles is just silly.

is it safe to edit post titles in the database? waiting years for this years is just not going to work...

I installed this mod - http://xenforo.com/community/resources/infisjsc-topic-starters-rights.24/

Allows users to retitle their threads, works well.

That's a moderator feature - it's not available to members (as per the OP).

 

[Max Hodges]

still glad that I found it!

This will do the trick! http://xenforo.com/community/threads/lgb-thread-renamer.10958/

I hope this suggestion is added to 1.2. Being able to set the amount of time a regular user has to edit their thread title is a very important function.

 

[Alpha1]

It's coming.

Are we going to see this in 1.2?

 

[Neil E.]

I don't want a time limit, the ability to always edit the title is important. In our club classified section, we tell users to edit their thread title to SOLD so the admin/mods know when to delete the ad. Having to read EVERY ad looking for a "sold" posting is massively time consuming.

Don't +1 - "Like" the first post in the thread.
