I’m reaching out because I accidentally deleted some cards from one of the deck folders synced through AnkiHub, and I can’t seem to get them back.
It happened after I created a filtered deck and unintentionally pulled in cards that weren’t in my current schedule (my “luz”). That somehow disrupted the organization of my decks. When I tried to undo it and return to my regular schedule, I realized some cards had been deleted or gone missing.
For example, in the Neuro > Autonomic Nervous System section, the deck starts from “02” instead of “01”, which used to be there.
I tried restarting Anki and syncing again, hoping it would re-download the missing cards, but unfortunately, they haven’t returned.
Thank you so much
But I’m afraid it will reset also all my learning cards also.
What is the recommended behavior when I use create filter deck option- should I delete the whole deck when I am not interested any more?
Should the cards will come back to original deck?
Yes, if you delete the custom filtered deck, the cards will return back to their original deck
It will not reset your learning card scheduling or anything like that. It will only reset what you have not protected, for example, if you edited the text field of a card and did not protect it then it will reset that
I still don’t fully understand why the deck was deleted in the first place. When I deleted it, it seems like it was just moved – interesting…
I also followed the 2025 settings video and applied the settings to the AnKing Step Deck, but I find it difficult to maintain these settings across all the sub-decks I created for each course. I’m worried that the custom settings I applied won’t stick, because the cards might inherit settings from the sub-deck or parent deck (depending on where they were moved).
Yes, around that much depending on what you select (we regularly delete duplicate cards so that number might be slightly off)
This method is similar to what I did for Step 1 but with one change, so instead of creating a new deck called for example “Vibrio cholera” and then watch the Sketchy video and do the cards after moving them there.
I create a custom study deck, a custom study deck makes a temporary deck that follows the settings of the original deck the cards are from and when you are done with that deck, you can click delete and it automatically returns that deck back to the original deck
In this picture, the blue decks are the custom study decks, so what I did was
Move all cards from each rotation (or for your case you have biochemistry, microbiology etc
