How to correct title on my build?
Posted by fright on Monday, March 18, 2019 11:27 AM

I started a build and I titled it 'Jenny' Shrimp Boat build but it is posted as: 'Jenny' Shrimp Boat build

Is there a way to correct this? I have no idea how the numbers and amp got in there. Thanks.

When you posted, did you use an ipad or smart phone? 

If you edit the orginal post do you see the &amp#39 in the title? Maybe completely remove the title, save with a single letter, then edit again, and add the true title. 

Hope this helps...

First half of question- you can only edit your topic in the original post.

 

Second part of qurstion- I don't know. I just put a test post up in "testing", seems ok. But I think it goes wonkers after some time, or after first reply, or? It's all a mystery.

I tend to avoid punctuation in my topic lines as it does do what you showed.

Bruce is right, he just doesn't know it.

Just edit your original post and change the Title or header, whichever it is called.

Edit: GMorrison and I cross-posted (I didn't see his reply until after my post), so I wasnt' ignoring your comments, Bill. It just looks like it. Stick out tongue

LOL!

 

I did a little googling, (slow day at work), seems "'" is unicode for an apostrophe. I would go back and edit the title of your original post and delete the apostrophes.

Well, I created a new thread and had apostrophes in the title. I used safari on an iPad, and I didn't get the unicode characters. I might try my smart phone and see what happens.

Fright, I'm glad you got it sorted out.
