- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16523093, 2 years agoI've just installed it and it works perfectly. It has keyboard shortcut which is awesome. Groovy!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Vadi2, 2 years agoWorks great - would love to be able to rename from the right-click menu as well
- Rated 5 out of 5by impal0r, 3 years agoExtension is easy to use, powerful thanks to the regex feature, and the instructions are thorough. My only problem with it is that it doesn't work for pdf files - but I've found this problem with other tab renaming extensions as well. Is changing the tab title of a pdf generally impossible in firefox?
- Rated 5 out of 5by BlackVega, 3 years agoThis extension is exactly what I needed! My only issue is that I cannot rename a PDF. Is there a work around?

- Rated 5 out of 5by pstrg, 5 years agoQuite useful in order to "rectify" some inadequate tab naming.
Would like if polling would be added to cope with changing titles (could have a user-specified interval and allow one to disable).
p.s. As it doesn't really follow the syntax (it's more a template), what's referred to as Regex could perhaps carry another name. - Rated 5 out of 5by B-aublys, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15097235, 5 years agoThis extension is great for a busy student! It does exactly what I wanted it to do. I have a couple suggestions.
1) It would be cool if when I opened a bookmark (that I renamed), the newly opened tab would keep the name I gave the bookmark. For example: I have bookmarks for my online math class that redirect to a login screen before I can get to the "Lesson" I bookmarked. When I click the bookmark and get to the login screen, the tab is still called "L30" or whatever I named the bookmark. After logging in, though, the tab is always just renamed to the name of the website, which is too vague to work with if I want multiple tabs open, so I often use this extension to rename the tabs to something more specific. It would be awesome if this extension could rename my tab back to "L30" when it detects that the site renamed it. Maybe this feature idea is too specific for most people's workflows, but it would help me personally if I could designate tabs so they are not renamed until I leave the website.
The way this would probably work is automatically renaming the tab after the website renames it.
However, if you're browsing reddit or Twitter or something like that, you want the tab name to change with what you're looking at, so this feature should be optional and only work when 1) opening a bookmark, and/or 2) you're on a site that you have chosen in settings to activate this feature. (e.g. I only want this to happen on wamap.org, the website where I do my math class)
2) Also, the icons for Firefox built-in features are specific to the feature and not just a screenshot like this one (for example: "Print" icon looks like a printer). Here's an idea for what a better icon may look like, based on the "Synced Tabs" icon: Go to: imgur dot com slash Y6mMXEv
Thanks for making this cool extension, dev! I hope I can make an extension this useful one day. - Rated 5 out of 5by Peter Lyons Kehl, 5 years agoThank you Anush.
Like others: Could it be possible to add a "Rename Tab Title" action to the context menu for right-click on the tab, please?
It's difficult to choose good custom shortcuts. Why? Some people use various browsers (Firefox/Chrome) or operating systems at the same time (at home, work...) and those have their own default shortcuts. Shortcuts are difficult to remember and not intuitive.
Wouldn't a context menu be lovely? - Rated 5 out of 5by jalanb, 5 years agoThis is one of the (few) life changers, and one of the very few that bring so many smiles per day

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14263639, 7 years agoThis is a great add on. But I've one more:
Feature request:
Please allow use to clean up the icon. (Reset to the default blank icon)
Thanks. - Rated 5 out of 5by tanigoti, 7 years ago
