Editable title field

Post by 4rumid »

Hi,

This issue has come up any number of times in the forum, so I'd like to make a formal (ok, maybe business casual) request that we be able to change the titles of our articles once we've submitted them.

It doesn't seem to make sense to delete an article and then resubmit it back into the queue just for a title change. And that, of course, creates more work for Ed. As does his changing titles per our requests in the forums. If we can change the short summaries, excerpts, and keywords, etc. freely, why not be able to modify our titles?

Yes? No?

The problem with making the title editable is that the original document submitted needs to reflect the change in title too.

Good point -- I hadn't thought of that. Does that mean that when Ed changes the title he also changes it in the original document?

Thanks,
