Can i have two separate anking decks that are both synced to my ankihub account?

[brunohabibhabib]

I just started using anking today and I went thru the tutorial, this would help me separate the cards I need to study for my exams from the cards I want to study that are not related to my exams. I don’t know if you guys think there’s a better way for that. appreciate your help

Hi Brunohabibhabib!

Great question! Yes, you can manage multiple AnKing decks with your AnkiHub account, but there are some important points to understand:

How AnkiHub Decks Work

When you subscribe to an AnkiHub deck (like AnKing), a new deck is automatically created in your Anki collection. This becomes the “Home Deck” for that subscription, which is where new cards from AnkiHub will be placed.

Managing Multiple AnKing Decks

You have a couple of options to separate your exam and non-exam content:

1. Use a single AnKing subscription with custom organization:

   • Subscribe to AnKing once through AnkiHub
   • Move cards to different subdecks based on your needs (exam vs. non-exam)
   • This maintains all updates while letting you organize cards how you want

2. Create a separate Anki profile:

   • Each Anki profile has its own collection
   • However, only one profile can sync with a single AnkiWeb account
   • This approach would require separate AnkiWeb accounts for each profile

Important Considerations

• Moving cards between decks in Anki won’t affect AnkiHub updates - you’ll still receive updates for all cards
• You can customize the “Home Deck” for new cards coming from AnkiHub
• Anki profiles are primarily intended for different users on the same computer, not for splitting your own content

Recommended Approach

For your specific need of separating exam vs. non-exam cards, I’d recommend using a single AnkiHub subscription and then organizing the cards into different subdecks within Anki. This approach is simpler and still allows you to receive updates for all your cards.

Hi,

It looks like the bot answered your question correctly.

The best approach is to create a new deck for the cards you need for your exams and keep the rest in the original AnkiHub deck (or create separate decks for each topic). You can move cards between decks however you’d like; this won’t affect your ability to receive updates, and AnkiHub will not interfere with your organization. AnkiHub tracks cards by their unique ID, not by the deck they are in.

To move the cards, you can select a given tag, press Command+A (or Ctrl+A on Windows), right-click one of the cards, and select ‘Change Deck’ to move them wherever you’d like.
