Yes, I understand the difference and I still say WE/OUR BOARD do allow and at times encourage a title change.

For YOU and your board and/or many other boards maybe not, but as with other options that were removed from previous versions, I for one vote not to remove it. Modify it, alter it okay, but not remove it.

I'm not, but this is a request I thought for Rick to change the behavior, not just a "hack" of the software.

You guys are going to force me to learn more PHP ;\)

Spent this afternoon setting up a customized web application with shopping cart all written in-house with ASP. I don't know ASP at all but figured out it was calling a couple databases that were not there and some accounts that did not exist. Took a while, but got it running again. The guy that programmed it is out on vacation and the owner was chomping at the bit to get it going again after it was moved from one server to another last week.

I think jgeoff wants it in, on some level, but I think the template hack should be enough for most...

If Rick did add this ability I'm sure he'd add in a switch so that admin's could choose to allow it or not.

MIND...

there is a problem with this: if the subject is all caps or contains language you want to edit out, you will NO LONGER be able to edit the title, EVEN as an admin or a mod!

Anyone who can correct the code to allow mods and admins to still change the title?

Good point, Kayjey!

I suppose the above would be considered a quick fix, and let's hope this is built in with admin/mod override!

Yups - it's actually the one thing I keep changing after I switched over from .classic... a few years ago.
