Renaming a song? 2012-08-21 15:21:13 Reply

I understand we just got the "unpublish" feature, but I still don't see a way to rename an existing song.

Do we have to unpublish it first to be able to rename it, and then publish it again? I realize others have had the same concern on the official update thread, but I don't think any of them got an answer.

As of this point, yes.

Ok, after confirming that no data would be lost in the process, I tried this, but I still couldn't find a way to rename the song in its unpublished state.

I hadn't used the un-publish feature before saying that. I assumed it was just a fancy new name for delete. I guess not. My bad!

I've always been able to rename songs on the form. There's never been a problem with that.

They give you one, you want 2. They give you two, you want 4.

Human is fucking greedy. For fuck sake, the audio folks are the one on NG whom complain the most.

You have the fucking delete function, what else? "Yo look I can't delete stuff" now "Mate, I can't rename this what the fuck?"


What comes around goes around...

Well, it's certainly not the end of the world if the feature isn't available right now. I'm not complaining, just curious, is all.

I don't feel that it's a ridiculous thing to ask about, either, as it seems like more or less a basic feature; plus as I've already mentioned, others here would like to know about it as well. Not to demand it, just maybe find out if it's on the mind of Tom and friends.
