Gabriel Torres Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Hi, One feature that would improve a lot the moderation process would be the option to "quick edit" the topic title from inside the topic itself, i.e. by clicking and holding the title with the mouse. Thanks. bradl, Tom_K, TDBF and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iacas Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I agree… but I don't know if this is the place to post about it. I hope so. Yes, from that screen you can click right through to the forum where the topic is located, but sometimes it's on page 4 or 7 or something and you can't find it readily.

Vero Pepperrell Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 @Gabriel Torres I asked support how to edit a title from within the post, and it was pointed out to me that editing the first post allows you to edit the title. Not ideal but reasonable. I'd prefer to see the "Edit title" option in the "Moderation Actions" dropdown menu, rather than another hidden click + hold option (which our moderators didn't discover until we found out about it accidentally and let them know). The other inconvenient side effect of this hold + click option (other than poor discoverability) is that when used in the forum section, right-clicking to copy a thread URL causes the title field to be inadvertently made editable.

Vero Pepperrell Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 @Adriano Faria Interesting idea - we're on the hosted version of IPBoard, so as far as I can tell, this isn't possible for us anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is. It doesn't require any upload of files. Plugins are installed on your ACP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Torres Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 @Adriano Faria Excellent, many thanks! This helps a lot. I've installed it and it is working like a charm. This should be a out-of-the-box option as it was in the 3.4.x series. Adriano Faria 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabriel Torres Posted November 4, 2016 Author Share Posted November 4, 2016 @Adriano Faria The only "problem" with this plugin is that it bypasses the Rules we have to send out a PM to the post author whenever a moderator edits the post. So, using "the long" method the post author is notified via PM that his post was edit, whereas using your "quick method" the user doesn't get any notification. Is there any way to improve that? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriano Faria Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) No. What I did and you're call "quick method" is add a textbox, update title and seo title, add to mod log, handle search index, etc., exactly what the edit() method does ("the long" way, I guess). This is made to work alone. It has nothing to do with any other resource. Honestly, I don't even think about in this or any other 3rd party resource when I start something. If everytime I want to do something like this (that I really don't need to), I need to worry if someone is using a "rule" or something, then I have 2 options: 1 - I do and it's up to the user decide if will use it; 2 - do not do it. Meanwhile I stand with #1. it was just 10 min to rest my head from issues in other ressources. Don't get me wrong; not being rude.

Gabriel Torres Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 @Charles Thanks for adding this option. I've just upgraded to 4.1.18 and it is working fine. However, I have one question. I was only able to use the "quick edit" function on forums (list of topics), not inside the topic itself. Is this the expected behavior? Thank you in advance.
