Plenty of Fish title fixer user-script<\/h1>\n

Problem<\/h2>\n

The match-making site Plenty of Fish<\/em> has unfortunately updated to a horrible new design which is not only ugly, but worse, completely broken and almost completely dysfunctional. One of the biggest new problems with the site is that all of the profile pages now have the page title POF – Profile<\/em> and don’t include the person’s name, location, or interests like they used to. This means that when you look through your browser history, you won’t be able to find someone because they all have the same page title.<\/p>\n

Solution<\/h2>\n

This user-script adds the user-name of a person’s profile to the page title so that you can differentiate them in the browser history to make easier (or at all possible) to find a specific profile in the history.<\/p>\n

(You\u2019ll need a browser-extension like TamperMonkey<\/a>, ViolentMonkey<\/a>, or GreaseMonkey<\/a> in order to use it.)<\/p>\n

FAQ<\/h2>\n

Q: Is this userscript actually necessary, can’t you just report this issue to POF and have them fix it?
\nA: In my experience, POF has terrible support. I’ve reported numerous bugs to them and they either ignore it, can’t understand the problem no matter how hard I try to explain it to them, or just don’t care. Therefore, I wouldn’t hold your breath on getting this fixed, so unfortunately, this userscript is indeed necessary. (Though considering how badly they’ve ruined the site and how almost completely useless it’s become, the best solution may be to just stop using the site altogether and use something else. Unfortunately, almost every other site requires a paid subscription in order to make contact, and are thus completely worthless. The only other site that lets you make contact for free is OKCupid.)<\/p>\n
