Hide the post title area and the default icon when there is no title
 

This modification hides the area where a post's title is shown if there is no title and the user hasn't chosen a post icon. I think it looks cleaner this way.

One of the little tweaks I've always wanted! Thanks for the release. :)

You're welcome. It's a really simple change, and could also be done with a template edit, but this way is easier for future upgrades. :)

Installed, thanks alot.

Hi,

good idea. But on my site the title field gets pre-filled with re: topic, so users will have to remove the title manually. Here on vb.org it`s different. Any ideas how to prevent that "Re: topic-tilte" to get inserted automatically?

thank you - all the best,
Sacha

This works with v3.6.4. Good hack.

nice job! ;)

I would prefer to leave it on, as it contributes to keyword density on your page, but anyway here it is..

vBulletin Options > Message Posting and Editing Options > Automatically Quote Post / Thread Title > NO

Val.

From what I gather, SE's don't like duplicate content. Wouldn't the same line posted over and over be considered duplicate content?

No, duplicate content really means duplicate pages (copy of a complete page) and it's not a copy of a single sentence or a keyword.

My claim still stands :)


Ok my english is not so good, but you get the idea.
