About Advanced Tab Renamer - Custom Names & Icons
ADVANCED TAB RENAMER — Custom Names, Icons & DB Detection
Rename any browser tab and set a custom favicon. Rules are saved and automatically reapplied on every matching page, even after reload or browser restart.
─── FEATURES ───────────────────────────────
Custom tab names — replace noisy default titles with clear, meaningful labels.
Custom favicon — upload any image (PNG, JPG, WebP…) and it becomes the tab icon. Works independently from renaming.
4 matching modes:
- Exact URL
- URL prefix ("starts with")
- Regex (full JavaScript patterns)
- Dev DB mode — auto-detects db= and table= from phpMyAdmin-style URLs
Bilingual interface — English and French, switchable in one click.
Synced storage — rules sync across your Chrome profiles via chrome.storage.sync.
─── WHY ────────────────────────────────────
Default tab titles become unreadable when many tabs are open. This extension lets you:
- Find the right tab instantly
- Distinguish environments (dev / staging / prod)
- Label phpMyAdmin tables without typing
- Keep workflows clean for coding, demos, and screenshots
─── FOR WHO ────────────────────────────────
- Developers working across multiple localhost ports and admin tools
- QA testers navigating many routes and environments
- Database users with phpMyAdmin or similar tools
- Anyone who wants clear, persistent tab organization
─── HOW IT WORKS ───────────────────────────
1. Open the popup on any tab.
2. Enter a custom name and/or choose a favicon image.
3. Select a match type and adjust the URL if needed.
4. Click Apply.
The rule is stored and reapplied automatically on every matching page.
Reset at any time to restore the original title and favicon.
