Hi,
the script/addon was working perfectly for me when having a local Kodi database. Since a couple of weeks, I switched to a SQL database running on my NAS. Kodi works well with it, everything's perfect except this script/addon. It doesn't work and in the Kodi log there is an error message related to the script/addon, see below. I get this error message although I did all the changes described in post #3.
Is there anyone who can help?
Error message in the Kodi log:

Is there anything similar working with Python 3 and newer versions of Kodi?
Edit: nevermind, read the whole thread and found the updated version for Python 3. It seems to be working fine with Omega nightlies.
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you
read this first (usually it's enough to follow instructions in the second post).

Thanks to everyone for keeping this addon alive. I last used it several years ago and had been missing it, since I disable the default plethora of useless automatic tags and use custom ones I've defined, and the process really benefits from the UI this addon provides.
I'm using MariaDB, and I had to diverge from the instructions a bit to get it working. I started on my Windows 11 system, and in CDatabase.py, I had to comment out 'name' under baseconfig. Without doing this, nothing would be displayed when I chose "Tags" from the context menu, and I got errors in the event log. That got it working on Windows, but it failed on Android with a different error. The solution to that was to substitute the mysql folder from the current mysql-connector-python-8.2.0.tar.gz for the one in mysql-connector-python-8.0.17.tar.gz specified in the instructions.
I have noticed a minor glitch in that "New Tag" doesn't work from the main dialog, but it does work in Tag Overview. Also, the Tag Overview button shows like a strikeout line through it instead of a selection rectangle. It would also be nice to be able to back out of Tag Overview to the main dialog instead of being dumped out of it altogether.
Going forward, it could be really cool to link tags to Trakt watchlists. That service seems interesting, but I don't see how to view watchlists and stuff in Kodi. Tags do what I want WRT this.
. So thank you for hardwork/time... It is much appreciated 👍
