I think that either Regulars shouldn’t be presented with the edit title option in categories they can’t post in, or editing the title shouldn’t require posting permission.
Are you sure? I wasn’t, so didn’t risk it. It defaulted to ‘dizzy’ in the dropdown.
It’s an obvious candidate for a UI fix if that’s the case.
Edit. Out of curiosity, I checked an earlier thread with a headline I did change, and it seems it was indeed mysteriously changed to ‘dizzy’. Coincidence?
Good to know. Then the actual recommendation would be to show the boing category properly. It was clearly confusing in this case, and I know I’ve seen a few discussions get moved in the past.
I’m positive it used to work that way (I’ve actually done it and it worked fine), but I think somehow things have changed and it may no longer consistently stay in the Boing category.
