Here's what I'm doing
Thread -> Edit Post -> Go Advnaced -> Change title
After doing that, the thread title shows the updated title inside the thread, but on the forum index it still shows the old one even after a hard refresh/cache dump. Anyone know how to fix it?

Where specifically in the vB AdminCP can I find Thread Tools?

AJAX Feature (double click) works perfectly fine to edit the thread title. What doesn't work is when I change the thread title by editing the thread itself manually going through edit thread > go advanced > edit thread title > Save
The result is the thread title changes when viewing the thread internally (like when you're reading this thread). It does not change when you go back to the forum index and then hit refresh. So again new thread title results internally, but old thread title remains on the index when editting via go advanced editting.
It's a bit confusing, does that make sense?

So you are only editing the title of that post and not the thread.
There are only 2 ways to edit the title of a thread; using the AJAX double click method from forumdisplay or using the Thread Tools drop down menu and selecting Edit Thread. Supporters vBulletin Owner | |  | Join Date: Oct 2007 | Posts: 397 | Re: Editted Thread Title, but it doesn't change Quote:

And it shows up in the title inside the thread, and also the thread title on the forum index. So it looks like you can, and it suppose to work, but on my forum it doesn't. Any ideas?

It may depend how you have your editing settings configured.
