How do you change (edit) the original subject of a thread? Like say after 20 posts, you want to change the subject line.....

I'm not sure about here but on most forums you can only edit for a certain length of time. After that you would have to have the monitar do it for you.

Just for the sake of discussion, I went to my first post in this thread, and when I click on "edit" I don't see any place to get into the subject line....it's only the content that I can edit?....

You're right Brent, the advanced works. But does everyone have access to that or just us?

Everyone. You'll notice threads like Rennies where he recently added an 'Updated' to the title to let people know that he added some new pictures of his fireplace redo.

At this point, we don't have a time limit on editing posts here.

point of order, there may not be an intentional limit, but after awhile on my Shop build I couldn't change the topic... of course given how long my shop build is Taking.... 99.999% of folks' topics are safe.

Point taken. I just checked, and indeed it's set at 525,600 hours. That'd be one year, or about 26.1 fortnights.

I guess if Ned wants to edit his shop build thread titles, he's gonna have to run for a Moderator position again.
