But in this specific situation, yes, running single-field edits with Action Chains can modify it, both default and plugin. There's one exception:
I think this is the Calibre "modified" column, I haven't installed the plugin to manage the "Last Modified" date. Though now I'm going to check it out! maybe it'll have a log to say what last modified the title.

But if the Action Chain is only modifying a single field then how were over 20 titles modified? I didn't use any "Action Chain" modifications yesterday. Do you know if the template "Action Chains" run in the background?

I'm not 100% sure that the Action Chain did anything but I can't think of anything else that would modify titles on it's own.

Thanks for responding so quickly!
