We had 2 sections within a parent section that, after the 'title' was changed, showed up as the old title on the parent.

At first I thought it was some sort of caching problem with the parent, but after close examination of the child sections I found that the problem was under 'options'-->'more options'-->'compact title' The old page title was still there.

When I deleted that and tried to say, it would not let me, I had to put the new title in the compact title location as well.

This does not seem like an appropriate behavior to me. First, is the compact title required? If so, then it is too buried to find. Second when a page title changes, shouldn't there be a trigger that updates that compact title automatically, or alerts the editor?

This seems like a bug to me.

Normally with yacs 8.6beta30.31.12 the compact title "follows" the main title, until a different value is set to it. Therefore, for ordinary pages, changing the main title should be all you have to do. Only in specific cases would you explicitly set a compact title different from the main one.
