Cards showing up twice but technically not duplicates

🙋 Support

Hello I’m having an issue where some cards I add to my ankihub deck show up twice with the same ID on the anki app, but they only show up once on ankihub. They have the same ID and when I try to delete one both get deleted. Anyone experience this issue before?

Hi Lisandrogabriel,

This issue where cards appear twice in Anki but only once on AnkiHub is likely related to a syncing problem. Here are some potential solutions:

First steps to try:

  1. Check for syncing issues:

    • Make sure you’ve fully synced both with AnkiWeb and AnkiHub
    • Try forcing a full sync with AnkiWeb (in Anki, hold Shift while clicking the sync button)

  2. Restart Anki:

    • Sometimes simply closing and reopening Anki can resolve display issues

  3. Check your browser view settings:

    • In the browser, try different sorting options to see if it’s just a display issue
    • Look at the card IDs carefully - are they truly identical or very similar?

If the problem persists:

  1. Run the Check Database function:

    • Go to Tools → Check Database
    • This can fix database inconsistencies that might cause duplicate displays

  2. Try resubscribing to the deck:

    • If possible, unsubscribe from the AnkiHub deck and resubscribe
    • This might reset any syncing inconsistencies

  3. Export and reimport your progress:

    • If the above doesn’t work, you can export your progress from AnkiHub and reimport it after a clean install

Since the cards have the same ID and deleting one removes both, this suggests they’re actually the same card being displayed twice due to a database or display issue, rather than true duplicates.

If these solutions don’t work, please provide more information:

  • Which deck are you using?
  • When did this issue start?
  • Have you recently made any changes to your Anki setup or AnkiHub subscription?

It appears the check database function resolved the issue if anyone else is experiencing this problem.
