AnKore cards not displaying answers on iOS after update

[yoonsung14]

After updating my deck, the AnKore cards are not displaying the answers and show up blank when I tap! The media works fine. Has this happened to anyone before? The cards work well on my desktop computers.

If it’s working perfectly on desktop but not on mobile, this is likely a note type issue. Since more than one person is experiencing the same problem, it is almost certainly not an Anki bug.

Unfortunately, because this is not an official AnkiHub deck and the issue is occurring on mobile (which does not support the AnkiHub add-on), there isn’t much I can do to help. The best course of action would be to contact the deck owner directly.

Let me know if you need help with anything else!

Thank you for your help! I’ll contact the Ankore deck owners directly. Hope we get this resolved soon to get back on the flashcard grind!

Having the same issue. Has anyone been able to find a solution for this?

Same issue, thought it was just me.

I found the fix.

The cards were going blank on iOS because of the editable field wrappers on the back template, not because of the other JS. Through stepwise testing, the problem was narrowed down to these two lines:

{{edit:cloze:Text}}

and likely also:

{{edit:Extra}}

Replacing them with plain non-editable field rendering fixed the cards on iOS while keeping the rest of the back template working:

{{cloze:Text}}

and

{{Extra}}

So the practical fix is:

• replace {{edit:cloze:Text}} → {{cloze:Text}}

• replace {{edit:Extra}} → {{Extra}}

Important: AnkiHub will overwrite changes to the original note type on sync, so the way around that is to clone the note type, apply those 2 edits to the clone, and move your notes to the cloned note type. That prevented the template from getting reset and restored normal iOS behavior.

Of course it’d be much more ideal if they just fixed this centrally, but for now this will get things running for you!

Haven’t been able to get the above mentioned fix to work.

But the deck founder posted in another message board that the current work around is to stop the automatic synch with AnkiHub temporarily and he provided the old code for the back template to fix in the meantime. That worked for me!
