In-line editing hides the subject line in the forum.
Number of replies: 3
The newly introduced in-line editing of forum posts now hides the subject line behind "advanced". (Who is advanced?) That worsens the subject drift - without changing the subject line.
Re:
I have noticed several messages with an empty subject line ??
(maybe when replying)
For instance, in the Spanish moodle.org forum :
https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=367060#p1560509
or the French one :
https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=387019#p1560526
Is it related to your issue ?
(before, there used to be the multiple strings "Re: " reply issue...)

Re. Forum posts with empty subject line
Pascal, thanks for highlighting the empty subject line problem. I created MDLSITE-5866 for it to be investigated.
Re. In-line editing hides the subject line in the forum.
Hi Pascal
I don't think the empty subject line is directly related. Or at least, I have never experienced it. It looks like you can reproduce it. Your post has no subject line. How did you do that? The odd thing is, I can not reply to your post unless I add a subject line. Is this a browser issue?
Edit: I experienced the problem. The subject line vanished when I tried to edit the post. But I couldn't submit it, saying empty subject is not allowed.
Looking again at the original topic, the new in-line editing feature, I think it is a step back. People want to march the old web forum towards instant messaging.
