Hi Superstarpiggy,

It seems youโ€™re having an issue where decks youโ€™ve subscribed to in AnkiHub appear empty after syncing. This is actually normal behavior for many AnkiHub decks, especially the AnKing decks.

Why Your Decks Show 0 Cards

The reason your newly subscribed decks appear empty is because all cards are initially suspended when you first install/sync them through AnkiHub. This is by design to allow you to selectively unsuspend only the cards you want to study rather than being overwhelmed with thousands of cards at once.

How to Fix This:

  1. Go to the Browse section in Anki
  2. On the left-hand side, navigate to the Tags section
  3. Find the tags for the deck youโ€™ve subscribed to (e.g., #AK_Step1_V12 if youโ€™re using the AnKing Step Deck)
  4. Select the cards you want to study
  5. Right-click โ†’ Toggle suspend (or press Ctrl+J/Cmd+J)

After unsuspending, the cards will appear in your deck and be available for review.

More Information

For a visual guide on how to do this, you can check out this post on the AnkiHub community which explains this issue in detail with screenshots.

Additionally, you can find comprehensive instructions on subscribing to and managing AnkiHub decks in this guide.

Let me know if you have any other questions or need further assistance!

Hello,

Could you please try to unsuspend the cards as the bot suggested?

If that doesnโ€™t resolve the issue, please try resetting your local changes. Hereโ€™s a tutorial on how to do that: How to Reset Local Changes

If the problem continues after trying both steps, could you provide some additional screenshots of your Browser window? That would help us investigate further.

Let us know if you continue to experience this issue. :blush:
