selecting valid common name on species page

[AfriBats]

I realized that even if an English common name is marked as invalid, it's still displayed as the common name in the header of the species page, e.g. "Rodriguez flying fox" should be suppressed in favour of "Rodrigues flying fox", but it isn't in the header.

A workaround is to delete the invalid name and then add it again as a currently not accepted name, but this would also kill the link to the original source from where that name had been imported.

I guess it's a bug - easy to fix?

Sorry for the super late reply, trying to dig out of email. I just
tried adding "Rodriguez flying fox" as an invalid English common name
for http://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/40928-Pteropus-rodricensis, and it
is not being displayed as the page title as you described. If you can
provide me with the URL of a page where this is happening I can look
into it further.

Apparently Scott deleted the invalid "Rodriguez flying fox" altogether (something I didn't want to do as it was a name imported from another DB). If you then add this as an English name, select that it's currently not accepted, it will correctly show up only as a (invalid / crossed-out) synonym on the left side.

The problem was, however, that "Rodriguez flying fox" probably was the first common name for that species on iNat, and remained as the header name no matter whether you selected the name as currently accepted or not. Maybe check whether this problem still persists...

Got it, Scott and I chatted about this a bit and I think I found the
problem and fixed it. If you see it popping up again please let me
know.
