I should probably know this but I don't. Why is it that when I try to edit the title of a thread, it edits the optional subtitle that appears when you look at the thread instead but not the title itself? (ie the one you see on the link to the thread)? Is there a way to get around this? <<;

Mods can edit the title, so I'm betting admins can as well.

Users, however, can't. It's just a rule that's been set up.

That's because it's the only board you're "mod" at. It works like this:

Mods only have the full mod-level options at their boards. Anywhere else and they're limited to whatever the Admins allow.

Super Mods, or Global mods, have full mod-level options at any board.

Admins have all options at all boards.

There ya go.

Yeah, you have to do it through thread tools. I was just seeing through your first post if I could do it from there but it just changes the post name. You have to use your mod powers to edit it, or have an admin, praetor, or s-mod change it if you don't mod that area.
