Lack of interest More control on Title capitalization

[giorgino]

Now, if I select First Word Cap in the other words are forced in lowecase.

Ex.

If the user input: this is My First Thread
the function return: This is my first thread

The correct form should be: This is My First Thread

 

[Mike]

That's just the title case option (This Is My First Thread). What you selected is sentence case.

 

[giorgino]

Is it possible to add the combination of two like in my example? (The correct form should be: This is My First Thread)

This has been raised before.
Without a word list, how would the software know which words to leave in lower case?

Here's a related thread: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/as-designed-editing-post-title-to-caps.9308/

 

[giorgino]

The words to leave lowercase are simply the words that *are* lowercase, and the same for uppercase words (a part the first letter that must always uppercase).
I try to explain.

Original title: i love the Lake Victoria
With uppercase function: I love the lake victoria
With future (I hope) and correct function: I love the Lake Victoria

Other example:

Title written by one user: the ONU and the USA
With forum function: The onu and the usa
Correct form: The ONU and the USA

Other example:

Title written by one user: the ONU and the USA
With forum function: The onu and the usa
Correct form: The ONU and the USA

Do you only want to capitalize the first character of the sentence ?

Yes, but leaving untouched the rest of the sentence

 

[giorgino]

Anyone can code this modification?

Hey! I made this for you. Please tell me if it works.

Here: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/ucasefirst.84/

To configure, go to Home -> Options -> Threads, Discussions and Conversations and set the option "Only the first letter".

I thought this was already fixed in an earlier update? I can do the capitalization at my sites.

To only the first letter of the sentence and let the rest untouched?

 

[Carlos]

Any part of the sentence. You can put in capitalization anywhere you want...

What option should I opt to make this work?

In my forum, 1.1.1, If I choose Title Case I get this:

Original Title: My thread Title is in Here
Result: My Thread Title Is In Here

With the Sentence case I get this:

Original Title: My thread Title is in Here
Result: My thread title is in here

How does this work for this case?

 

[Carlos]

All of my sites are 1.1.1, and the option is...



My members can capitalize any part of the thread, in many instances.

Yes, I know. Same here!

What giorgino is asking, is that the thread title be adjusted *automatically* only in the *first* letter of the title. As you can see in my post above, this is not present in XenForo.

Anyway, you can download the add-on to test if you want.
