Can anybody tell me how to note that one thread has been solved?

In summary, the conversation discusses the inability to edit thread titles and the suggestion for the web-administrator to enhance this functionality. The original poster also thanks those who helped solve their problem and expresses their desire to add "This thread has been already solved" to the title.

hi, guys:
Several days ago, I post a question and with the help of nice people,the problem has been solved! So I want to add "This thread has been already solved" after the original thread title. But I cannot modify that!
Can anybody tell me how to do that? Thanks in advance!

For whatever reason, I don't think members are able to edit the titles of threads once they've been posted. The best you can do is what you did--thank whoever helped and state that your question/problem has been answered/solved.

Oh, that's a pity. Maybe the web-administrator can enhance this functionality!
