Rudi Oct 21, 2000 12:54 am

you and I can't.

MRLIMO Oct 21, 2000 2:55 am

I type the title in last and triple check it and then check it again. I don't know why it couldn't be set up to allow editing.

Eidetic Oct 21, 2000 4:42 pm

oh well. add it to the "enhancement list"

Michael at WebFlyer Oct 23, 2000 9:36 am

It would be VERY useful here
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum1/HTML/004635.html

and perhaps for some similar situations - yet I assume that it is not terribly easy to modify! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Pls correct my topic title
 
In the Delta forum, please change the year to "2002" in the topic title that I posted call "ATL/HNL nonstop in 2003". It should read "ATL/HNL nonstop in 2002".

Thanks

John at Webflyer Dec 26, 2001 10:07 pm

I've made the change for you, Eidetic.

Better yet, give the users the ability to do this themselves.

Great Idea! I couldn't agree with you more dbaker.

What bothers me most is, it doesn't bother you.

We'd allow users to edit their thread title, but it's not a function of this version of UBB unfortunately...

Can You/I Edit Title to Thread?
 
Can my title in my trip report be edited? I listed it as "China Eastern from SHA-SZX", but it was "China Southern from PVG-SZX".

Can you do this for me, or can I do it myslef?

Thanx.

dan at WebFlyer Apr 26, 2004 1:52 pm

You should be able to do this yourself, by clicking the "Edit" button in your post. Look for the Title field to edit.

If you are denied permission, though, contact the forum moderator.

That allows me to edit the sub-title, but not the entire thread topic title??? :confused:

Whoops, you're absolutely right... sorry about that. We haven't enabled Title editing for the main user group. Contact the moderator for that forum and ask them to edit your title.

How can you change title
 
Hello,
I have selected a title for a report that I don't like and I would like to change it. I went to the article, clicked on edit, changed the top line for Title, it showed up on my copy but when I logged out and came back the article still had the same title.
So how do I change the title...asuming I can.

Regards,
Robert

If you are talking about changing the topic of a thread started by you, you need to contact the moderator of the forum in which the thread resides, either by private message or by e-mail. The moderator will be happy to edit the thread title for you.

If there is no moderator for that forum, you may contact [email protected] with your request.

Only moderators and FlyerTalk administrative personnel (as well as Randy Petersen) can change the title of a thread. However, as you may have discovered, Robert, you may change the title to a milepost authored by you at any time, as often as you wish.

I-flybynight Jul 9, 2004 11:50 am

Thank you for your speedy help. That is the exact information I was looking for.

Regards,
Robert

Milepost?

The term "milepost" does not seem to appear in the FAQ. What does it mean?

It is a term I coined for a post on FlyerTalk, although I am sure other FlyerTalk members came up with it well before I did.

Please accept my apologies for any confusion in which I may have caused, Middle Seat.

slippahs Jul 11, 2004 8:17 pm

FWIW, you can change the title of your thread within something like 5 minutes of posting.

aloha

I should have included the following in my earlier “milepost” in this thread:

Change thread title in forum w/o mods?
 
Is it possible to change the title of a thread? I created a thread with a title I'd like to change so it's less sensational and more accurate. Who do I contact since the AS forum doesn't seem to have a moderator?

How do I change a thread Title??
 
Hi,
If I am the OP of a thread and realize my title is not as descriptive as I would like - how do I change it?

SanDiego1K Aug 2, 2005 9:55 am

PM a moderator in the forum who can change the title for you.

(I have no idea why only moderators can do it.)

How to change thread title?
 
Hi guys. On most forums to change title of thread all you have to do is click "Advance view" when editing 1st message of thread and there you can change title of entire thread.

Here on FT when I try this it simply changes title of 1st message and not the thread.

Anyone knows if it is possible to change title of the thread without have mod do it?

Canarsie Nov 19, 2011 1:29 pm

It is not possible.

Only FlyerTalk moderators, administrative personnel or the community director can change the titles of threads.

However, we are more than happy to fulfill whatever request you have regarding the change of a thread title.

Fastest way is to report your own post using the little red triangle icon under your handle.
