So I’ve begun to notice this problem where I would initially encounter a card from the Anking MCAT Deck where I would add more information to the bottom of the card when I got to it. This added information would be things such as screenshots or just added texts so that I can view it the next time I encountered the card. But I have noticed that the edits that I made to these cards would essentially be taken away the next day when I reviewing the card. Is there anyway to prevent this from happening or is it something on my end?
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.
This is fairly normal, as AnkiHub functions by writing to your fields (this is, fundamentally, how the service works and the way it is able to ensure that you receive updates).
Left to default, AnkiHub may at any time update your fields if the card, or the field, is updated.
You can protect fields, however. One thing to keep in mind is that this is a trade-off; if you protect a field your edits will be preserved and won’t be changed, but you’ll also be unable to receive updates to that field.
It may be worth pointing out that certain fields, like Missed Questions and Lecture Notes, are never modified by AnkiHub and so those can be ideal places to insert updates if you like.
Please let me know if that answers your question, and if there’s anything else I can help with.
