If You're Running Chrome or Firefox, Pinmarklet will Bother You to Install the Pinterest Browser Extension
- From time to time you'll see a big banner in the image grid, begging you to please install the extension.
- If you don't want to install the extension, click the "no, thanks" button to set a two-week cookie.
- Pinning with the extension is much better, especially if you pin a lot. You'll have free hovering Save buttons (which you can turn off in Settings) and you can right-click and pin an image without the intervening wait-for-the-grid / pick-an-image cycle.
- Pinning happens right there inline instead of in a pop-up window.
- You also get Visual Search for free. Right-click the body of the page to search a full screenshot, or choose the hovering selector button to search an individual image.
Working in 2026! Thanks so much for this. I have it on my Apple Mac desktop and wanted to install it on my Apple, but couldn't remember how to install it. I came across your helpful post on GitHub and completed it in no time. I find it a great backup, as some pages don't allow you to pin (the Pinterest button doesn't appear), but this simple little marklet seems to get the job done.
