EDIT 4: I think one potential cause of issues is either normal tab discarding or Auto Tab Discard.

Either way, toggling disable -> enable of the add-on in the add-ons list fixes it.

EDIT 3: Bumped back up to 5 stars though because it's still so incredibly useful.

EDIT 2: Frequently stops working for some reason... Rules just randomly stop applying.

EDIT: Also would make my life a ton easier if it also could dynamically set the title based on the contents of a set text input box on a web page

Fantastic, especially regex rules, though I really wish I saw "Regex Error" appended a hell of a lot less often. (I think the most recent case I'm running into is maybe because the website uses a temporary different title during tab loading? I'm using $1 if that's important.)

This addon provides more options than other addons. Other addons like "Rename tab title" were not useful for me because they fail if just a small part of the URL changes (for example: you have opened a price comparison site and add another product).

With this one, I can choose "Set the name for this tab" and the name stays even if some part of the URL has changed.

Perfect for rewriting sites that have REST-URLs. Works great, easy to use.

this extension does exactly what I want it to. only request would be to customize the shortcut for renaming tabs.

I use this with Image Picka to download images automatically with a custom page title. Such a time saver! Thank you!

It's easy to use and does what it's supposed to. I only wish that I could hide the context menu entry.

It's has context menu option and can rename tab exactly what I want for 3 months ago! I like the context menu because of that I not really need thinking where I will put the extension button. I more like it to be hidden from the toolbar.
btw I'm from other extension that I accidently almost add it but I read a comment that say this extensions is great and I bealive it, so thx~

Lets me retitle tabs. Does exactly what I need it to. No complaints.

Great!

This works well once I figured out how to do a Regex to remove a specific annoying phrase that Amazon inserts at the beginning of every page Title. I don't like that because it messes up the default name of my bookmarks.

Here's the regex I used: /AmazonSmile: (.{1,45}).*/$1/

This removes the literal phrase "AmazonSmile: " from the beginning of any page title on smile.amazon.com. It removes the first phrase and then inserts the rest of the title but only up to 45 characters in length. If the original title is longer, it truncates the rest. I found a Regex testing site that helped me figure this out. https://regex101.com/r/vMzP9d/6

I'm keeping a lot of similar tabs across reboots (organizing them using TreeStyleTabs). Tons of Slack, Mail client tabs, ... without meaningful title prefixes. I'm now using your extensions for assigning titles specific to URL prefix (thanks to your beta regex matching). My brain feels so relieved.
Kind of cumbersome to put in place, but the best option so far!
Would definitely appreciate the ability to modify/add regex more easily, but this is already so useful.
Thank you a lot!

Wow. I was using 'Tab Mix - Rename Tab' before, but Tab ReTitle is far better.

Unlike 'Tab Mix - Rename Tab', I can assign a tab title to any URL. So that means I can open a new tab to that URL and it gets my custom title. I can also go to that URL within a tab and it gets my custom title. I can go Back or Forward to that URL within a tab and it gets my custom title. It's also persistent across sessions. So this completely solves the problem for me of how the YouTube history page just gets titled, "YouTube" instead of "History - YouTube".

Unlike 'Tab Mix - Rename Tab', the titles of YouTube videos aren't always automatically renamed to just 'YouTube". With 'Tab ReTitle', the video titles show as expected without me having to change any settings. It just stays out of Firefox's way (unlike 'Tab Mix - Rename Tab')!

There are a few other instances where the title never showed the way I wanted it to show, and 'Tab Mix - Rename Tab' couldn't help because it was just for that tab only and if I closed it, that was it, it was gone. Going to other pages in that tab meant the title doesn't change because I had simply renamed that tab. With Tab ReTitle, everything is exactly as it should be.

Very easy to use gave important feature to set title for this Tab. I had same url where i needed different titles for automation which this plugin gave.

i love this extension i had lot of tabs open it helps to rename the specific tab
