Would it be possible to change Titles?

[morsify]

Just a small suggestion - is it possible to allow titles to be edited?
So for example when a WIP is complete, it can be edited, or a thread with a question or problem can be marked as solved by the original poster?

For which forum would you like to have this feature Keith?

No promised but I think it will be hard to do but ill do my best.

Hi Bram, please don't bother if it is dificult to do, I just thought it was worth mentioning in case it was something that could easily be activated/enabled. It was when I was painting some car skins - in the Mods section I put up a post entitled 'WIP - F1 skins'. But I could not change it later when it was complete and no longer a WIP, so it just made me think that it might be a good idea to be able to edit the title.The other time is when someone asks for help with a problem, if it could be edited to say 'solved' it helps when someone else is searching for the same answer. But it really is not enough of a problem it if it is difficult to do, I just thought I would raise it as a possibility.

Hey Keith,

Issue is that its indeed not more then switching some permissions with a few clicks but that it will have a global impact on the board where people will constantly change thread titles

How about this:

• We make a WIP section for projects that is currently been worked on.
• When finished mod makers upload it to the RD Resource Manager
• Upload finished? A thread automatically gets create in the forum (release thread)

For which specific forum would you like to make these changes?

Thanks Bram, it's Game Stock Car Mods for me - I've just done one set of skins and will start another shortly. But I do appreciate it's not the most used of the forums - if you think it's worth it though, then it would be good to see how it works out.

Have a look in the AC mod forums please. http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/forums/assetto-corsa-mods.36/

There are currently some WIP projects tagged and a few apps that have been uploaded the downloads manager. http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/microdownloads/

Both have different tags, can be filtered, receive an automatic thread once uploaded etc. Would that be a sufficient solution for you?

Bram that is great, I have never seen that before, that is exactly what I was thinking of

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Will work more on it tomorrow. Maybe we can make this for all modding forums with more detailed prefixes even.

Good suggestion, hopefully a good outcome also

Thanks Bram, looks like a great solution

Cheers

Bram,
could you help me please.
I have a couple of WIP prefix threads. I am ready to change them to released, but how do I make it do this?
Does it do it automatically when I upload the file?
Thanks
