- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17918332, a year agoJust installed it and it solves my problem with persistence of tab name across reloads which is great!
Though it doesn't provide shortcuts which is secondary, but brings a lot of comfort. - Rated 5 out of 5by PeaceByJesus.net, a year agoThis actually works, unlike the Tab retitle ext. But I do have to twice go to a tab and choose Rename Tab in order to get the dialog box to show up.
Good to see any option from legacy Tab Mix Plus working.
Note that I use The Patcher to enable Multiple Rows of Tabs in Firefox. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15369696, 2 years agoWhen ever the star is blue the tab is names as I named the bookmark. great.
- Rated 5 out of 5by hbn, 2 years agoAbsolutely fantastic. I use this in combination with addiction blocker addons to kill the tab title notification feature on social media websites. Reloads across the domain and persists. Does everything it needs to.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13536828, 3 years agoBreaks dynamic title updates. Constantly reverts title back to initial one on load.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12708511, 4 years agoUnable to re-edit after renaming. Does not work for HTML loaded from local drive.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Wisedevman, 4 years agoUseful extension, but there are conflicts with turbolinks js library. Tab title is not updated correctly.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Chris Hubick, 4 years agoIf you remove the icon from the toolbar, the tab context menu doesn't work. It kept asking "rename this tab regardless to it's address" (should be "of it's"), every time, and doesn't remember previous selection as default. And then the next tab I tried to rename, clicking the 'Done' button doesn't make the rename dialog go away or do anything. Uninstalling.

- Rated 1 out of 5by TwoCables, 5 years agoI switched to Tab ReTitle because it's far better.
With Tab Mix - Rename Tab, I can only rename the tab and then that's the name of the tab regardless of the URL. I can't assign URLs a tab title. I can do that with Tab ReTitle. That means every time I go to that URL, no matter how I go to it, the tab automatically gets my custom title. If I visit a different URL in that tab, the title changes as expected.
With Tab Mix - Rename Tab, it seems to always automatically name YouTube videos to just "YouTube" on the tab. With Tab ReTitle, it doesn't do this. It simply stays out of Firefox's way. So now I see YouTube video titles on the tabs thanks to switching to Tab ReTitle. This has nothing to do with any settings.
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, the title 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, based on the setting I used when renaming the tab!
Therefore, Tab Mix - Rename Tab isn't any good.
