Title: Why does not the New OP title propagate through on all posts in my threads Post by: Ghostofkobra on November 16, 2012, 02:26:59 PM When i edit my OP and set a new title the title of all other posts in my thread does not change.
I see other threads that updates their respective titles and then it propates through all titles in that thread. How do they do? How should i do? /GoK Title: Re: Why does not the New OP title propagate through on all posts in my threads Post by: BadBear on November 16, 2012, 02:34:28 PM I see other threads that updates their respective titles and then it propates through all titles in that thread. Title changes will only affect new posts. Already existing posts won't have their title changed. Only time I've seen those change is when merging threads (it's an option). How do they do?

Title: Re: My stupid old title. Post by: Stephen Gornick on November 17, 2012, 02:56:37 AM This post is just to show that it still has the "old stupid title". It also depends on which reply is being replied to. For instance, had I simply clicked "reply" this reply would have the new title. But since I clicked "quote" from your post with the old title, this reply will have the old title as well. Title: Re: My stupid old title.

For instance, had I simply clicked "reply" this reply would have the new title. But since I clicked "quote" from your post with the old title, this reply will have the old title as well. And when i quote you i also get the old title. So , does this mean that all those threads that change their titles once in a while (and they propagate through all posts) actually merge two threads. /GoK Title: Re: Why does not the New OP title propagate through on all posts in my threads Post by: Stephen Gornick on November 19, 2012, 08:04:01 PM Nope. Usually just means someone hit reply without doing "quote", like I just did here.
The title comes from the first post then. Title: Re: Why does not the New OP title propagate through on all posts in my threads Post by: dree12 on November 19, 2012, 10:10:10 PM This is a feature, not a bug. When those users posted, it was in reply to the original title. To change that would be to put words into those users mouths.
Example: I post a new thread: "Should Satoshi be honoured?", and someone replies: Quote This is an excellent suggestion! I then proceed to change the thread title to "Should Satoshi be eaten alive?". That user's post should not have its meaning changed, rather, it should retain the old title. Title: Re: I can change it to whatever I want.... Ya dig?
