Based on my research, I can help you with creating a note type for AnkiHub that works with the AnKing Note Types add-on. Here’s how to accomplish what you need:

Renaming Fields in an AnkiHub Deck

As a deck maintainer, you can modify field names in your AnkiHub deck by:

  1. First, make the changes locally in your Anki collection:

    • Go to Tools → Manage Note Types
    • Select your note type and click “Fields…”
    • Rename “Picmonic” field to “Citations”
    • Click “OK” to save changes

  2. Update your AnkiHub deck with these changes:

    • Open the AnkiHub add-on
    • Click on “Deck Management”
    • Select your deck
    • Go to the “Note Types” section
    • Click “Publish Field”
    • Confirm by clicking “Yes” when prompted

Updating Hints to Match Field Name Changes

To ensure your hints reflect the renamed fields (Picmonic → Citations):

  1. Update the card templates:

    • Go to Tools → Manage Note Types
    • Select your note type and click “Cards…”
    • Edit the template to update any references from “Picmonic” to “Citations”
    • In the front/back template, update any hint buttons or references

  2. Publish these template changes:

    • Go back to AnkiHub add-on → Deck Management
    • Select your deck
    • Click “Update Note Type Styling”
    • Confirm to publish the changes

Ensuring Compatibility with AnKing Note Types Add-on

The AnKing Note Types add-on (https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/952691989) should still work with your customized note type as long as:

  1. You maintain the basic structure of the note type
  2. You don’t change functionality critical to the add-on’s operation
  3. You publish all changes through the AnkiHub interface

The add-on primarily works with the styling of cards rather than specific field names, so renaming a field from “Picmonic” to “Citations” shouldn’t affect functionality.

For more details, I recommend checking out this video about AnKing Note Types customization which explains how the add-on works with AnkiHub.

Would you like me to clarify any specific part of this process?
