Every time I sync with Anki Hub, it shows that cards have been altered or modified. I check to see what the changes are just to be aware of them, but when I look at the modified after sync filter, I’ve never seen a single card come up there.

I understand your frustration with not being able to see modified cards after syncing with AnkiHub. This appears to be related to how AnkiHub’s syncing mechanism works compared to the standard Anki sync process.
Why This Happens
When you sync with AnkiHub, the modifications are coming through the AnkiHub add-on rather than through the standard AnkiWeb sync process. The “modified after sync filter” in Anki is specifically designed to track changes made during regular AnkiWeb syncing, not changes from add-ons like AnkiHub.
How to View AnkiHub Changes
Instead of using the “modified after sync” filter, you can try these approaches to see what’s been changed:
-
Check the AnkiHub menu: When AnkiHub syncs, it typically shows a summary of changes (cards added, modified, etc.). This is your primary source of information about what changed.
-
Use the Browser with custom filters: Try searching in the browser with parameters like:
deck:YourAnkiHubDeckto see all cards in that deck- Sort by “Date Modified” to see the most recently changed cards
-
Compare versions: If you’re a deck maintainer, you can review changes through the AnkiHub interface by navigating to the deck maintenance options.
For Future Reference
If tracking specific changes is important to you, consider:
- Taking notes of what changes AnkiHub reports during sync
- Creating a backup of your collection before syncing with AnkiHub, so you can compare the before and after states
This is a specific behavior related to how AnkiHub integrates with Anki, not a bug or error with your setup.
Have you tried using the Browser with sorting by modification date to see the changes instead?
I tried using the ankihub menu and that’s what doesn’t work. Also I don’t know how to sort by date modified and I don’t have a deck maintainer.
Hi,
Do these tags show any cards for you?
A better way to check for recent changes is by looking at the recently approved updates here: Sign In
Also, please note that hundreds of updates are made every day, so it’s nearly impossible to keep up with exactly what is getting updated.
But I can assure you that the deck receives meaningful updates daily. The deck maintainers do an excellent job of filtering which suggestions are worth adding to the deck! ![]()
We got reports of the “Updated Today” filter not being accurate since at least last year I think, and the issue is being tracked.
So my updated today does show cards under the new note subsection and this is the first time ever, but today under the modified after sync there were two cards so I guess all is good thank you guys!
