      Let's take Facebook messenger for example, when I normally save it as a bookmark on Microsoft Edge it save a website name by default, and precedes with a number, showing missed notifications.

      I want to do the same on Opera GX, but whenever I move Facebook messenger to the main bookmark tab, it only gives me the option to rename it, not retain it's original name.

      How do I keep the original name and allow the bookmark to automatically change it's name in correspondence to notifications? (I want to see the number change)

        @shangwang Keeping the original name is the default behavior. Regarding the title of the bookmarked page changing according to the number of notifications, I guess it's not possible.

        The page would need to constantly be re-bookmarked to reflect the current number of notifications.

          @leocg I see, it is the default behavior but I'm asking how to not make the book mark become renamed if it is put in the main bookmark tab where it's visible, it forces me to rename it. Can that be disabled?

          The bookmark works perfectly fine and reflects the missed notification on M edge, all I need to do is close those notifications, close the browser, and the number updates.

            @shangwang What exactly are you doing? If you just copy the bookmark to the bookmarks bar, you should not have to rename anything.

              @leocg Never mind, sorry for the trouble! I realized I had to move the bookmark from the tab itself, I used the bookmark page and moving a bookmark that is not in the main tab will force it to be renamed.
