Title is required

Am I remembering wrong, or did it used to be that you could preview your post before adding text to the title box?

Just a little annoyance, because often I just want to post an embedded image that the OP did not include, and it's uncertain whether it will work, so I always preview first, and if the image does not hot-link, then I just back out of the whole thing.

Anyway, now I have to put a title before I can see whether it will even work.

Title is, in fact, required. TwilightZone Dec 2023 #1
Yes, I know; but did it used to be this way? nt intrepidity Dec 2023 #2
It's been required since the beta was released. TwilightZone Dec 2023 #3

You only need one letter in the title to get it to work while you preview Donkees Dec 2023 #5
Yes, that is what I've been doing, thanks. nt intrepidity Dec 2023 #6

I think you could preview or post without a title in DU3, if that's what you're asking.

Think. Again.

...that I no longer lose an entire post I've written because I hit post before putting in a title.
