User script to display tags on Mint.com

Mint.com tags display

Ever been annoyed that Mint lets you add tags while editing transactions, and then you never see them again? This user script makes the tags visible:

Installation

First, install a browser extension which lets you add user scripts: GreaseMonkey if you're on Firefox, or TamperMonkey if you're on Chrome, Safari, or Opera. (You can also follow more detailed instructions for your particular browser.)

Next, click here and you will be prompted to install Mint.com tags display.

More information

This blog post discusses the motivation behind this user script and how it works.

mint-tags-display's Issues

Not Working on Updated Mint Site

This does not seem to be working on the latest version of the mint site. Details below.

Browser: Firefox v111.0
Extension: Greasemonkey
mint-tags-display v2.0.0

Issue: Tags not displaying in the transactions list (screenshot below)

Handle new tag creation

If a new tag is created and then applied to a transaction, it won't show up because the script is only aware of the tags received in one of the bundledServiceController.xevent requests on page load. (It will show up after the page is refreshed.)

This should be a matter of intercepting POSTs to https://wwws.mint.com/updateTag.xevent and adding a new key/value to tagIdToName based on the request/response.

I see a x-www-form-urlencoded request to that endpoint which includes a field like:

nameOfTag=foo

And a response which looks like:

<response><tagId>1286836</tagId></response>

New Interface

Now that the old Mint interface has been completely deprecated, are there any plans to update the script to work with the new one?

Script is enabled but not working

I have Greasemonkey loaded in Firefox and the mint tags script is installed and enabled, but no tags show up in the categories even after rebooting. Am I missing a step?

Edit: I used Chrome + Tampermonkey and it worked just fine. So that's good enough for now.
Thanks!

not working?

I just installed this to Chrome 53, but even after restarting Chrome, I am not seeing my tags in the Transactions view. Is this still working?

Category drop-down doesn't work if transaction has tags

The userscript seems to break the category drop-down just above where it adds the tag labels. (The category drop-downs continue to work on transactions without tags.)

Script stops working after deleting tag from tags list

I deleted a tag that was no longer in use and in spite of reloading the page the script will no longer work after deleting that tag. Uninstalling and reinstalling the script fixed the issue.

This is awesome!

Hey, just wanted to say that this is a really useful extension. Thanks!

I just discovered this and it's so great, thanks for making it!

Mint Beta

hi.. any chance you could make this work on the new beta interface? they are going to switch over to the new interface here shortly. thanks!

Labels do not automatically update after tagging multiple transactions

If multiple transactions are tagged using the "Edit multiple" button, the labels don't automatically update the way they do if only 1 transaction is tagged.
