Discourse's "An error occurred: Title seems unclear, did you mean to enter it in ALL CAPS?" prompt

Community

When Discourse publishes a topic, by default, you will encounter the following prompt:

An error occurred: Title seems unclear, did you mean to enter it in ALL CAPS?

Problem and Solution

The reason for this problem is that Discourse, by default, does not allow the title and body to be entirely in capital letters.

You can search for allow all in the backend.

Then select the option Allow all caps in a topic title or a post body. and save to exit.

Try updating the title on the frontend again, and this problem can be solved.

You are likely to get more responses if you’ll get Google to translate your posts into English. I heard of a study recently that suggested that students who wrote papers in Chinese and had Google translate them got better grades than students who wrote them in English, which suggests that Google is doing a pretty decent job these days.

IS your SiteSetting.default_locale set to %w(zh_CN zh_TW ko ja), if so, I think it should be skipping that test. But if not, you should make sure that your default_locale is set to zh_CN or whatever is appropriate.

Thank you very much @pfaffman.

I was try to mark this settings to Chinese version in case someone needed.

I still like to keep my personal settings as English for move searchable.
