Bookmarks without Tags

Normally, I subscribe to the autohotkey feed so I can see whenever folks make new posts in the scripts forum, but I don't have time to read them all and I want to save them for later. So I bookmark them in my browser.

However, the bookmarks always add the tags to the tab title - and this makes it too long to see in the bookmark panel in my Waterfox. The bookmark adds [32][script] to the page title of the bookmark. The [32] is notifications (which I rarely pay attention to) and the [script] is the forum tag.

So, what I'm asking is whether there is a way to bookmark pages in this forum without the tags getting included in the page title.

(I usually just drag tabs off into my bookmark folder in the bookmark panel in Waterfox)

I would probably automate this. This is really more on the client side. For instance Crtl+D bookmarks the currentpage

Thanks, Joe. I was hoping there was a forum setting that would toggle those tags being added to the title. I know I could find a client-side answer, but am lazy.

The forum has bookmarks. Click the wrench with the down arrow, select Bookmark topic.

If I use the forum's bookmark function, is there a way to get rid of the confirmation message I have to click on every time?

Or you could use a greasemonkey script with something like

Code: Select all

// ==UserScript==
// @name         title notifs counter clear
// @namespace     https://autohotkey.com/boards/
// @version      1.0.0
// @description  removes notifs counter in window/tab title
// @author       joedf
// @include      https://autohotkey.com/boards/*
// ==/UserScript==
var original = window.document.getElementsByTagName('title')[0].innerHTML;
window.document.getElementsByTagName('title')[0].innerHTML = original.replace(/\(\d{1,3}\) /gi,'');
untested :ugeek:
