Automatic Nodetitle Module version 6.x-1.0 (2008-Jul-09) doesn't work with Drupal 6.6.

To reproduce. Hope this help:

  1. Install a fresh D6.6
  2. Install Automatic Nodetitle Module version 6.x-1.0 (2008-Jul-09) (1modules.png)
  3. Go to /admin/user/permissions

    Set appropriate permissions. I did a test by granting all possible permissions but that didn't work either (2permissions.png).
  4. Go to /admin/content/node-type/page

    Edit content type (3content_type.png)

    Select 'Automatically generate the title and hide the title field'.
  5. Go to /node/add/page

    Fill appropriate fields (4editing_page.png).
  6. View page at /node/1

    Page's title is display.

    Expected result is an hidden page's title (5viewing_page.png).

Attaching screenshots.

And a question. Is this module suppose to hide both content title field & content title?

By 'hide content title field' I mean when editing page. Find attached screenshot 4editing_page.png.

By 'hide content title' I mean when viewing page. Find attached screenshot 5viewing_page.png.

As for hiding the subject line field when creating content, yes, it should hide that in my experience. I'm not sure automatic nodetitles actually hides the title output on the page itself though. Wish I could be of more help.

I found why. The README.TXT file needs to be updated to avoid confusion.

Current README.TXT file reads:

This is a small and efficent module that allows hiding of the content title field.

README.TXT should read:

"auto_nodetitle" is a small and efficient module that allows hiding of the content title field in the form.
