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.

Fantastic.
(⬇optional, ty for your hard work):
ADD:
- right click tabs to rename them

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

I need the regexp replacement so much.
Thank you.

The first add-on really retitle tabs.

Simple to use. It could be nice if you could remove the favicon too.

It. Just. Works.

Finally found something that really works!
Can you add functionality to edit saved titles?

Simple and it works like a charm! It would be excellent if we can change the favicon too, in case we want to hide both favicon and title as well.

(Updated 13/11/19) Thanks Laz for a very good addon. Love that you can stick titles permanently to # on pages! (for tricky sites like booking.com). And can open saved pages from the addon options dialog.

Tip for those pages you need to keep from tricky sites (from bitter experience):
1. rename the EXACT MATCH first (stops page rewrites wiping the titles)
2. then apply the same name to the tab (so you know which page the tab should be on, annotate it etc)
3. you can switch tabs to copy text from another tab (eg message list) into the title dialog.

FEATURE REQUESTS---
1. DONE-THANKS :) shortcut to open the dialog (customised to CtrlAlt_H)
2. DONE Have the old title pre-selected in the new name entry field -save using the mouse every time! +)
3. Please put edit saved tabs in a sidebar or better still in a new tab - the ridiculous addon options box is impossible to use. :(
4. Is it possible to put in tabs' right click context menu, to rename UNLOADED tabs? Reasons:
(a) Having to navigate away wait to load, retitle then Ctrl_Tab back to previous tab =distracting
(b) Tree Tabs imports tabs unloaded with the custom titles, but when they are loaded the custom titles are overwritten (because the restored tab is not in retitle memory; NOTE: you can now retrieve the old title, if you are quick, by pressing the Retitle shortcut after the tab is activated, before the title is overwritten). Retitling unloaded tabs would be very useful as I often have to import whole groups of tabs I have annotated previously! So rightclick,R and old name already in name entry box would make this a simple process!)

I use retitle all the time, it is frustrating to have to mouse click and wait for pages to load - and lose all my old titles on imported tabs. (NO problems of course on FF session restore - it saves them.)
==============
Great work making this indispensible! The ability to permanently rename tabs is my fave.

workaround for dumb mozilla pages which block renaming- create a local tab (text file) as child and retitle that to annotate.

I love that you can Ctrl-Tab to the dumb mozilla tab while renaming the local tab and copy the heading- helps a lot with annotation!

Very good work so far -- however, to be truly useful, it needs to allow us to *prepend* something, not just replace it completely. I'm a developer using this across multiple environments for the same product (local, dev, QA, staging, production.) I would love to prepend "QA - nnnn", etc. Maybe you can make this an option, or at least allow us to use {0}-style replacement for the original title?

FANTASTIC! Looks good, and everything you need is in the options (Default name type, and removing tags), and its compatible with other tab applications. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks!!

Hi. You told someone else you added the feature to rename tabs according to how our bookmarks are named, because of that I installed this addon but I don't see that option. Is it because that update to your addon hasn't been approved yet and you are still waiting on it?

I like your add-on. But I have one remark. In Options, what is the difference between 'Set for this tab' and 'Only exact match'? I tried both a bit, and Only exact match seems to work better.

Works as advertised, and the developer just added the option to have a one-time title. Now this add-on is truly excellent.
I have a suggestion. Is it possible that Tab Retitle shows, when available, your own title from your own bookmarks? As many people I have a lot of bookmarks and it would save time and effort if I would not have to retype those titles.
