    Changing the title of a thread - testing

    Hi

    I have changed the title of a thread of mine because of a typo. After changing the title the new one doesn’t appear in the list of threads in the board, but when I open the tread you can see the new title. I changed the title right away so I did go past the time limit

    Nah its probably because vbulletin does not update the thread view straight away. Can you see if it has done it now?

    ZH I modified the title of this one quite soon after I created it, but when I look on my subscribed threads, the title's still wrong (it should say Anyone, not Any)

    But it does mean that the issue is not due to caching/update delays

    It should be okay now. The timelimit must be set in vbulletin so I have set it to a high number. Edits should be instant now.
