Can I amend the title of a thread after I posted it?
Thank you for any replies.

Hi holdingontometeeth,

You can't edit threads once they've been posted, but if you have just started it and no one else has commented in it yet we can withdraw it for you and you can start again. Just let us know which one!

Oh I was sure I had seen a title amended before Jasmine The same title with a bit added at the end....I think it was one of the meet up threads. hmm

Hi. you're right. GNHQ can do it in very particular circumstances - we try not to generally because it can cause confusion for people who have already been on the thread, and it disrupts links etc. But the OP can't do it herself, which is what we though they were asking? smile

Jasmine it's quite clear, the OP didn't ask to edit the thread, but to amend the title

It’s all cleared up now thanks.
I titled my post Diabetes Banished.
maryeliza54 kindly pointed out to me that the title should have read Type 2 Diabetes Banished.
I contacted GNHQ with a view to amend the title.
I was informed that they do this on rare occasions but as the first poster to reply on my thread pointed out that it should read Type 2 that should suffice on this occasion, which is fair enough.
Thanks for your interest.
