Why we like it

Vertex Group Rename stands out in the Superhive library for focusing on one task: batch renaming vertex groups, with support for prefixes, suffixes, letters, numbers and symbols.

What is Vertex Group Rename?

Vertex Group Rename brings batch renaming to vertex groups in Blender. Rather than editing group names one at a time, the add-on lets you swap multiple groups at once, working with letters, numbers, symbols, prefixes and suffixes.

The developer notes it suits adjustments involving rigs, including cases where names transfer from a large chain of bones rather than from groups, among other processes. Documentation is provided to help you get started, and a demo video is available.

Compatible with Blender versions 3.0 through 4.5, the add-on is released under the GPL license. It has recorded more than ten sales and was published on Superhive, where it holds a popularity rank of 3223.

Who is Vertex Group Rename best for?
