# Rename a topic
|
|
|
|
Zulip makes it possible to rename topics. This is useful for keeping messages
|
|
organized, even if some users are still learning how to use topics effectively.
|
|
You can also [move content to another
|
|
topic](/help/move-content-to-another-topic).
|
|
|
|
When a topic is renamed, Zulip's [permanent links to messages in
|
|
context](/help/link-to-a-message-or-conversation#get-a-link-to-a-specific-message)
|
|
will automatically redirect to the new location of the message. [Muted
|
|
topics](/help/mute-a-topic) are automatically migrated when a topic is renamed.
|
|
|
|
Organizations can [configure](/help/restrict-moving-messages) which
|
|
[roles](/help/roles-and-permissions) have permission to rename topics.
|
|
|
|
