XF 1.1 Changing Thread Title

[A.Chakery]

Hello,

I am working on a new website ... was testing some features and I noticed that I can not edit the thread titles ... (I am the main admin user)

Would you please tell me what I did wrong ?

V : 1.1.3

thank you

So the only way to allow reg users to edit their own titles (using the existing permissions)... is to check off Manage (move, merge, etc.) thread by anyone:? Not sure I like the idea of users being able to move/merge.

Correct. There is no separate permission.

I am curious as to why that is. Changing titles is very common. If and when I add a WTS/WTB forum, users need to be able to edit their titles accordingly. ie. sold - delete me please. No doubt something similar can be done with thread prefixes as well, but title edits seem important. It does not break links as mentioned, so I don't see the issue... unless there are some problem user(s) perhaps.

I doubt it was intentionally omitted. More likely it just hasn't been implemented yet. It has been requested.

For now, there are add-ons that do what you want.
