 * Hello,
 * I have a problem when I update an existing post with quick edit. When I change
   the date of the post, for example, the parent is updated. But the child isn’t
   and everything I change in quick edit.
    When I try in the normal edit post, everything
   works fine. Do you have any idea what could be the problem? Regards,

 * Perfectly normal behaviour. Since the Broadcast meta box is not visible, and 
   indeed the normal editor is not used during quick editing, Broadcast can’t tell
   that something has happened to the post.
 * If you want the changes broadcast then you’ll have to edit the post manually,
   write some custom code that detects quick edit changes or perhaps use [the Rebroadcast add-on](https://broadcast.plainviewplugins.com/addon/rebroadcast/)
   to save you some time.
 * Changing the default behavior to rebroadcast is not wise since lots of people
   will not be expecting the change.
