QGIS 4 ready Active
Yes — LayerCategoryLabel supports QGIS 4 (declared max version 4.99.0).
Enhancement of QGIS core feature: automatically displays the classification field (or "Rules" for rule-based symbology) in the layer name.
About
Enhancement of QGIS core "Display classification attributes in layer titles" option. While QGIS hides classification field names under layer expansion arrows, this plugin displays them automatically in the layer name, making thematic layers immediately identifiable without extra clicks. Supports Categorized, Graduated and Rule-based symbology. Can be toggled on/off via toolbar icon.
