If you don't own a business or do not have kids, for example, there is no logical need to have those options always show up in a list. This addon gives you control over these built-in categories. You can hide any sub-categories and even top-level categories that you do not wish to see. After the addon is installed and enabled, you are able to set your preferences. This is where you would go if you wanted to add a custom category which Mint lets you do natively.
Click on the top-right link that says Edit Hidden Categories. You will then see checkboxes next to each category and sub-category. Place a checkmark in the checkbox of the categories you want to hide. Their text will be crossed out. When you have finished going through all the top level categories and choosing your selections, click on the top-right link that says Save Hidden Categories.
Alternatively, click on the I'm done submit button. If you want to restore any hidden categories, follow these steps again, removing the checkmark from the previously hidden categories. Built-in categories can be hidden completely.
When hidden, the categories will not show up in the dropdown list of categories, nor in the popup dialog for editing custom categories.
Hidden categories will never modify existing transactions. If a transaction is set to a category that is hidden, the transaction will not change or hide itself. Also, the search box will still autocomplete all categories, and any other page on Mint will still show all categories. This addon is merely a client-side change; if you disable the addon, all categories will return to their default state. Your preferences are saved on Mint's servers, so you only have to set up your choices once.
When you install the addon on another computer, your preferences will be automatically loaded. If you choose to change your settings later on, the changes will also be updated on your other devices. Your hidden categories will persist across all sessions and computers, and they will remain hidden as long as you are using a computer with this addon installed. They are saved in the Uncategorized category, and they begin with! When the addon is installed, they should not be visible. I had begun searching for new applications rather than Mint when I started seeing the limitations I was going to face.
Mint should totally incorporate this into their application. The category choices they have are just far too complex. Thank you again for solving this problem for me! Ayan Sarkar. Hi - I installed the extension and clicked all the cetagories to hide. Now I am unable to get back to the menu to edit them. I can off course, turn off the extension but then I don't have the option to hide any of the categories.
How do I get unstuck from this? Can I delete all the settings and start over? Here's how you restore your categories. Disable the extension. Go to the Uncategorized category, and you should see 3 custom subcategories listed beginning with! Delete those custom subcategories and save the changes. Then you can reactivate the extension, and all the categories should be visible again.
Those 3 custom categories contain your preferences for the extension, so clearing them out should reset all the hidden category selections. This has been bugging me forever and I'm so grateful to have found your script! Happy new year! Log in to rate this extension. Report this add-on for abuse.
