Home and deck Numbers not lining up

my home menu and deck menu have different numbers of cards. Home menu: New=73 Learn=158 Due=47. Deck menu: New=6 Learning=158 Review=46 Unseen=73. How do I get the unseen seen? How do I get the numbers to be the same (This is only for the anking deck).

Certainly! I’d be happy to help you understand the discrepancy between your home menu and deck menu numbers, particularly for the AnKing deck. Let me search for some relevant information to address your questions.

Thank you for your question about the different card counts in your home menu and deck menu for the AnKing deck. Let me explain the discrepancy and how to address it.

The difference in card counts between your home menu and deck menu is actually normal and relates to how Anki categorizes cards. Let’s break it down:

  1. Home Menu:

    • New = 73
    • Learn = 158
    • Due = 47
  2. Deck Menu:

    • New = 6
    • Learning = 158
    • Review = 46
    • Unseen = 73

The key to understanding this is the “Unseen” category in the deck menu, which corresponds to the “New” cards in the home menu. Here’s what’s happening:

  1. New/Unseen Cards: You have 73 total new cards (as shown in the home menu). In the deck menu, this is split into 6 “New” cards and 67 “Unseen” cards (6 + 67 = 73).

  2. Learning Cards: This number (158) is consistent in both menus.

  3. Due/Review Cards: There’s a slight difference (47 vs 46) which could be due to a card changing status between when you checked the two menus.

To address your specific questions:

  1. How do I get the unseen seen?
    The “Unseen” cards are actually part of your new cards. They will become “seen” as you study them. To start studying these cards:

    • Go to the Browse section in Anki
    • Find the AnKing deck
    • Look for cards tagged with #AK_Step1_V12 (or whichever Step deck you’re using)
    • Select the cards you want to study
    • Right-click and choose “Toggle Suspend”
  2. How do I get the numbers to be the same?
    The numbers are actually representing the same information, just categorized differently. The slight discrepancy in due/review cards is likely due to timing. If you want to see all new cards available for study:

    • Go to the deck options for the AnKing deck
    • Increase the “New cards/day” limit to match or exceed the total number of new cards (73 in your case)

It’s worth noting that the AnKing deck often has many suspended cards by default. This is to allow users to unsuspend and study specific topics as needed, rather than being overwhelmed with all cards at once.

@AnkiHub_AI_bot but I am only unsuspending cards that I need, so all cards I unsuspend should be able to be seen and not in the unseen category, additionally, my daily limits. for new cards/day is 9999 much less than 73.

I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. You’re right to point out that with your settings, the behavior should be different. Let’s investigate this further.

I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. You’re right to point out that if you’re only unsuspending cards as needed, and your new cards/day limit is set to 9999, you shouldn’t be seeing an “Unseen” category with 73 cards. Let’s try to figure out what’s happening here.

The “Unseen” category in the deck menu is not a standard Anki feature, and it’s not typically present in the AnKing deck setup. This suggests that you might be using an add-on or a custom deck configuration that’s creating this “Unseen” category.

Here are a few things we can check:

  1. Add-ons: Do you have any add-ons installed that might be modifying how cards are displayed or categorized? Some add-ons can create custom categories like “Unseen”.

  2. Deck Options:

    • Double-check your deck options to ensure that the new cards/day limit is indeed set to 9999 for the AnKing deck.
    • Look for any unusual settings that might be affecting how new cards are presented.
  3. Card States: In the browser, try to find these 73 “Unseen” cards. They should be either suspended or new. If they’re suspended, they won’t show up in your study session even if they’re unsuspended.

  4. Filtered Decks: Check if you have any filtered decks that might be affecting how cards are categorized or presented.

  5. AnkiHub Sync: Ensure that your deck is fully synced with AnkiHub. Sometimes, discrepancies can occur if there are sync issues.

To troubleshoot further:

  1. Go to the browser and search for “is:new” in the AnKing deck. This should show you all new cards. Check if this number matches the total of “New” and “Unseen” cards from your deck menu.

  2. Try restarting Anki to see if the numbers update correctly.

  3. If the issue persists, you might want to check for any conflicts between add-ons or consider doing a clean sync of your AnKing deck from AnkiHub.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, it would be helpful to know:

  • What version of Anki you’re using
  • What add-ons you have installed
  • Any custom configurations you’ve made to your AnKing deck

This information would help in providing a more targeted solution to your specific setup. If the problem continues, you might want to consider posting in the AnkiHub community forum with these details for more specialized assistance.

Can you show me an image of what you mean?

My hunch is that this is due to subdeck settings, but it’s hard to be sure without seeing what you’re referencing.

Just out of curiosity: do you know what version of Anki you’re using?

Version ⁨24.06.3 (d678e393)⁊

And if you click on ‘study’ from the deck landing page, what do the counters at the bottom show as your number of ‘new’ cards (should be the blue column on the left at the bottom of the screen).

And last thing: can you show me the values here:

As well as here, from your deck settings:

Sorry, I added another piece to the last one; the burying option from your deck settings.

If you toggle off ‘bury new siblings’ and check your deck landing page again, what does it say?
