Hello, iām wanting to create a āhintā field in the anking deck that doesnāt disappear with the updates. I know how to create the field and I know how to protect the field on one card, and I know how to protect premade fields on ankihub, but I donāt know how to protect a field I create for all cards on ankihub. I searched for similar topics on the website, but I didnāt find any related ot my topic. I included pictures of things I know to do and the web link the article I used. Thanks!
Thank you for reaching out! Our moderators have been notified and will assist you shortly. In the meantime, you can get an instant response from me simply by @ mentioning my username`. Alternatively, start a private conversation with me (see screenshot below). If you ask me a question, I will do my best to respond using only verified information found in the official AnkiHub docs and the Anki manual.
You can also find answers to common questions in our FAQ and Docs.
The short version is that you canāt, or shouldnāt, edit the fields of a note type for cards in an existing Ankihub deck. Because the note types, and information that define them, are held on Ankihub modifying something like a field will create compatibility issues between your local collection and the collection as it is hosted on Ankihub. Some edits are fine, and totally compatible (changing font style, or size, etc.). Others will create conflicts (changing the number of fields, for example).
You can use any sort of note type you like for cards in your personal collection that are outside the Ankihub deck, though thatās about the limit.
That being said, you can include hints within a given note type by adding them to a cloze, like so:
The {{c1::Earth::planet}} is 3rd from the Sun.
This creates a card with the hint attached to the cloze deletion, like so:
