Title already registered - Short cut?

Post by Annetta Holmes »

This comes up occasionally when I use a very simple title and usually when responding to a public request. I am notified that my title is already registered only after I have filled in all the fields and pressed the last submit button. I tried many ways to just change the title but the site won't allow me. Currently I have to resubmit from scratch - time consuming and subject to another 'title already registered' notice.

Does anyone know how I can just go in and change the title while connected to CC's server?

Thanks

There isn't a short cut for this. Some writers who are writing for requests will put a number after their submission. Like, "Gold Bracelets For Everyday 2." I don't recommend doing this for other submissions because this can be confusing, but I think for public requests, this is okay if you're having so much trouble getting your title to take.

Let me know how this works out for you.

Thanks Ed. I'll keep that in mind when responding to public requests with obvious titles.
