retitle 'set for this tab' gets overwritten by booking.com and airbnb (firefox)

Open piecevcake opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Is there any way to prevent booking.com and airbnb overwriting custom tab titles? (Firefox)

These are the WORST offenders as their own page titles are useless and users need heaps of tabs open to deal with multiple issues and a labyrinth of page locations. But they repeatedly expire logins, and every time a fresh login is required the custom tab title is deleted and replaced with their meaningless generic page names!

Would be really grateful for a fix for that.

As far as I'm aware, this isn't something I can fix. They have their own script that overwrites page titles and a browser extension cannot prevent that from happening. You could use "set for this tab" but that wouldn't persist if you close the browser because tab IDs change when you reopen the pages

Exact match seems to persist between sessions so best workaround I have found (for others with same problem) = This tab "comment $0", then "exact match"

Until someone cracks their code...
