Bullshit nothing is working

Stop

Hi,

I’m excited about the update. How do I perform an update on AnKing deck? Do I just need to sync it on the app?

Thank you!

My new cards aren’t showing yet and Ankihub is saying no new updates. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi @ghostrecon,

Can you elaborate on what the issue is?

Hi @rafbadi,

If you’d like to stop receiving these announcements, please click on the unsubscribe button under the original email

Hi @tymmm98,

Yes correct, just click Sync and you will receive all these updates!

Hi @vupeter,

They may be suspended, when you search in the browser, what do you see? If you search the text of the card and don’t see anything, then try resetting local changes: Resetting Local Changes

I saw empty cards when I searched in browser despite several syncs. Resetting local changes made them appear but now I’m sad all my changes got reset :frowning: Is there any way to avoid this in the future?
