This allows using utilities such as KeePass that auto-fill passwords according to the title of the current window.

By default, only the protocol and domain name are appended to the title, but the options page allows full customization.

Source code: https://github.com/guilryder/chrome-extensions/tree/main/urlintitle

Release notes:
v4.0.0: restored suffix preservation logic broken in previous version; migrated to Manifest V3; cleaned up the code
v3.0.2: added a mechanism to disable the extension (<head urlintitle="disabled">); added support for pages that delete the <title> element
v3.0.1: added icons

I use this extension to support the auto-type feature on KeePass, my password manager. Most of the time it works great, but every once in a while I have to turn the extension off and back on to reenable the URL in the page title. That is the only reason I give 4 instead of 5 stars.

Tiny one, but very helpfull! As many other people say it works great with KeePass Auto-Type. Way to go, devs!

Finally, why isn't it standard in google chrome? It is a real mess those titles that change all the time. I also feel like this is more secure since I can now see if I'm on a spoofed website or not, because I can see the real url... Spoofed websites fake the window title as an URL for example https://www.my.governement.com, but with this plugin I can then see that the real url was: http://s453.amazon.webs.service.aw:80 It also allows other application to inspect my google chrome window, like notezilla , and password tools, they all work now.> Google why didn't you implement this in your settings?

Perfect for use with a password manager like KeePass that can auto-type passwords based on application window titles. Take that, websites that just title your login prompt page "Sign In"!!

As others have said, fills the gap that KeePass needs for auto-type functionality without the need for a browser extension for KeePass itself.

Excellent plugin that works brilliantly with KeePass. Easily customisable if needed, and the default protocol + hostname is perfect for KeePass auto logins.

This is great when using Application Shortcuts on Windows. Now two windows running the same application at different servers/URLs can be easily distinguished.

Works excellently with Keepass, and deals with dynamically changing titles too.

It works perfectly with the auto-fill function of Keepass. It almost solves the problem of 'integrating' Keepass to browsers.

Does its job too well. Needs a site blacklist or something because with Url in title enabled and YouTube Center's "Remove YouTube Title Suffix" option enabled the result is an infinite loop of this in the dev console: [Title Listener] " History " => "History - https://www.youtube.com/" [Title Listener] "History - https://www.youtube.com/" => " History "

I've been using it for a while, but it seems a select few websites are now able to prevent it working. The Spotify login page (on the website, not the client) springs to mind right now because I've just been there.

I hate installing extensions, due to a general distrust of the typical code quality, privacy issues, and in general bloating up my browser, but I wanted to use KeePass with Chrome and to get full functionality the choice is either to install something like this or using a much more elaborate extension that hooks its tendrils into every page you view. After installing it, I took a brief look at the code and am happy to say it's not doing more than it says it's doing. The two features I'd like to see are: 1. restoring "New Tab" as the new tab title, instead of " - www.google.com". I think this might be due to a change in recent versions of Chrome and the author hasn't gotten around to fixing it yet. 2. adding another pattern to insert the hostname without "www." if present. Just the hostname should be sufficient to match against sites, and I'd like to avoid cluttering up my titles as much as possible.
