Repeater tabs renaming and re-ordering feature request

Esteban | Last updated: Dec 12, 2017 04:38PM UTC

Hi! It would be really useful if Burp allowed renaming and re-ordering the Repeater sub-tabs instead of only having fixed numbers. This would allow the user to organize requests and exactly know what each sub-tab has instead of having to go through all of them until finding the right one. During a pentest one can end up with tons of repeater subtabs Thanks!

This functionality is already available. Which version of Burp are you using?

Hi Liam, I am using latest Burp Pro version 1.7.30 but I haven't seen how do do that. My instinct was to right click over the Repeater sub-tab , say 1, and see some context menu that would allow me to rename In the reordering case I simply tried clicking on a Repeater sub-tab and drag it around to change the order, but the tab does not move. Could you perhaps explain me the procedure to rename and re-order? Thanks!

To rename a Repeater tab double click on the tab. To reorder a Repeater tab, click and hold the tab and drag it until you see an orange line highlighting the tabs new location. Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Hi Liam, I have just found out that if you click on the sub-tab number the cursor is enabled to type whatever you want! I was not that obvious really but now I see I can rename them :) Reordering is the only thing I still haven't figured out. thanks again
