Hi Emzeng,

I understand you’re still having issues with duplicate and disorganized BB tags even after attempting the initial troubleshooting steps. Let’s try a more thorough approach since you’re using Anki 25.02.5 with the latest AnkiHub add-on.

Advanced Troubleshooting for BB Tag Issues:

1. Try a Complete Tag Reset Process:

  • In Anki, go to the Browse view
  • Select all the cards with BB tags (search for tag:BB or similar)
  • Right-click and select “Remove Tags” to remove the problematic tags
  • Go to the AnkiHub menu → “Check for updates” to pull fresh tag data
  • Then AnkiHub menu → “Reset all local changes” specifically for the AnKing deck
  • Sync with AnkiWeb and AnkiHub

2. Try Optional Tag Groups:

There’s a special process for resetting optional tag groups that may help with your situation:

  • Go to Browse → AnkiHub menu → Optional Tags
  • If you see the BB tags listed there, select them and click “Reset”
  • Follow the prompts to reset those specific tag groups without affecting your other customizations

3. Check for Sync Conflicts:

  • Make sure you’re not experiencing sync conflicts between AnkiWeb and AnkiHub
  • First sync with AnkiWeb (top-right sync button)
  • Then sync with AnkiHub (AnkiHub menu → Check for updates)
  • If prompted about conflicts, choose to download from AnkiHub

4. Database Check and Optimization:

  • Close Anki
  • Restart while holding Shift to disable add-ons
  • Go to Tools → Check Database
  • Close and restart Anki normally
  • Try the reset process again

5. Last Resort Options:

If nothing else works:

  • Export your personal cards/notes (not the AnKing content) as a separate .apkg file
  • Create a new Anki profile
  • Subscribe to AnKing deck in the new profile
  • Import your personal cards
  • This gives you a fresh start with the deck and proper tag structure

If these steps don’t resolve your issue, it would be helpful to see a screenshot of your AnkiHub menu showing your subscription status and perhaps a screenshot of your tag hierarchy expanded further to better understand the exact duplication pattern.

Would any of these more advanced solutions work for your situation?
