I just learned something about thread titles; they will not acknowledge portions that are copy/pasted.
I recently created a thread with three words in the title, 27 characters including the spaces; I typed the first word and pasted the other two.
After a bit, I noticed that only the first word was displaying.
At first, I thought I had forgotten to paste in the other two words.
I clicked "Edit" and there were all three of my words in the title bar.
I clicked "Save Changes" and still only the single word was displaying.
I went into Edit again; and, this time, I deleted the two missing words and manually typed them in = that fixed it.
So, the moral of this story is...., copy/paste must not work for titles... at least not in this case.

I tried to duplicate your experience, but was unsuccessful; the copy/pasted words did show up in the thread title. If you are willing, please try again and let us know your results BuckSkin. |

I will try to remember to repeat my performance on my next thread. Remember --- I actually typed the first word and then pasted the other two words. |

Yes, that is what I did also.

Using Chrome, it did the exact same thing again.
In my Share Your Work thread "Cincinnati Eastern Railroad", I manually typed Cincinnati and pasted Eastern Railroad.
When I submitted the thread, all that showed up as a title was "Cincinnati"
I edited, hand-typing "Eastern Railroad" and it worked.
