Default Correcting typos?

It is possible to edit a thread title that I started after I have submitted it? (I know I can edit the body of a thread that I posted but I sometimes need to edit the title.) I try to proof read before posting but my brain knows what I intend to type and seems to skip over errors.

Also, it there a spell check function on here?

Thanks,

Mark

When I misspell a word it is underlined in red. When I right click on the word I am given a correction and alternative words. I am using MS Edge browser in windows 10.

No but you can give an admin or mod the info and we can change it for you. Sorry, no spell check.

Hows about you fixing my typo in the general chat section. I typed macines instead of Machines in the title.
Thanks.

Done.

Actually, you CAN edit the titles, as long as you are within the edit time limit as a whole. Click Edit, then click Go Advanced and you will have the option to edit the thread title.

Spell checker is the feature of browser on PC or mobile, and operating system's feature on Mac.
