    Whenever one makes a thread, there's always that weird thing that happens where beginning letters are capitalized at random or lowercased.

    For example, when I try this:
    [​IMG]
    It does this instead:
    [​IMG]



    Another example is on one of my recent threads:
    [​IMG]
    Notice how the 'c' in "class" is lowercased for some reason?
    That wasn't me, it was the system that made it so.

    Could this be fixed sometime soon?
    I know it's nothing too important, but it would really allow us to create titles the way we want.
    And besides, if people really want to have each beginning letter capitalized, then they could just do that.

    (Not gonna add a poll since I don't think that matters here.)
    (Scratch that, I suppose I'll add one.)

    The way WynnCraft Forums senses titles, it automatically corrects uncapitalized words to capitals. I made a suggestion just like this which was replied to by Tama, who said that this format would stay in order to keep consistency in the forum titles.

    How it works currently is that it checks to see if the word has a space in front of it. If it does, it will automatically capitalize the word. If there's parenthesis or brackets around that word, it won't register it as a new letter so it won't capitalize that.

    Though this is kind of an inconvenient solution, one way to fix uncapitalized letters inside brackets is by adding a space in between the brackets [ Like This ] instead of [like This].

    It capitalizes the first character after every space, so if you have a symbol and then a letter which should be capitalized, it wont be, to prevent people from putting things in all caps.

    Posted threads always have every first letter capslocked, typing "Hello guys Im new to wynn" would make "Hello Guys Im New To Wynn" which is newspaper titling. Typing "Hello-guys-Im-new-to-wynn" would print out the exact thing for the title.

    You're not alone in thinking that we should have full control over our titles.

    If this was removed (aka the sensor that makes the caps like this), there would be shit loads of threads all threads would be caps locked

    tbh, word recognition is exceptionally hard after you factor in all the special characters
    I'd recommend checking if the character in front of every word is NOT a letter, if so then capitalize. This is easy to code and will be general enough to work with future text icons and whatnot.
