I am looking to use the Anking One by One IO note type but am experiencing some difficulties. Here is what I have so far:
1. I have downloaded the anking note types add on
2. I have also downloaded the clozet add on (though it seems like this may not be necessary)
3. In terms of processâI am selecting the IO one by one note type; then I am pasting my image into the image field; then I am clicking the anking logo which allows me to create boxes; then I right click the image and click âaccept occlusionsâ which populates the IO field; after doing all of that, I am not seeing any of the occlusion boxes when I go to card in my deck. What am I missing here?
I have attached a video to demonstrate what I mean. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Youâre very closeâthis usually comes down to one of a few things in the âAnKing IO One by Oneâ workflow:
1. Make sure cards are actually being created
After you click Accept occlusions, AnKingâs IO tool should:
Fill the IO field, and
Increase the card count for that note type (shown at the bottom of the Add window, e.g. âCards: 0 â 5â).
Please check:
On the Add window, bottomâright: does âCards: 0â stay at 0 even after accepting occlusions?
If yes â the template isnât generating cards from the IO field.
In the Browser, find the note you just added:
Select it and look on the right side: how many cards does it say (âX of X cards selectedâ)?
If it says 0 cards, thatâs why nothing shows when you review.
2. Confirm youâre using the AnKing IO One by One note type + card template
Sometimes people select the correct note type but have lost the card templates.
Go to Tools â Manage Note Types.
Select AnKing IO One by One (or similarly named).
Click CardsâŚ
In the template editor:
Ensure there is at least one card type in the list on the left.
The front template should reference something like {{IO}}, {{Image}}, and maybe {{cloze:IO}} depending on the exact version.
If the front/back templates are blank or donât reference the IO field, cards will be empty.
If the templates look wrong/empty, the fastest fix is often:
Reâimport the AnKing Note Types (or the specific IO note type) from the original AnKing source deck, and
Then move your notes to that fresh note type (Browser â select notes â Notes â Change Note TypeâŚ).
3. Check that youâre actually seeing new IO cards in that deck
In your screenshot it says âCongratulations! You have finished this deck for now.â That message will appear if:
The deck has no due cards, and
The newlyâcreated IO cards are in another deck or their due date is in the future.
Please verify:
On the Add screenâs topâright, which Deck is selected when youâre creating IO cards?
In the Browser, search for:
deck:"Your Deck Name" and tag or search by todayâs date (added:1) to find justâadded notes.
Select a newly added IO note and check the right pane:
Does it show a card in the correct deck?
Is the card suspended (yellow âpauseâ icon) or in a different subdeck?
If the cards are being created but put in the wrong deck, just change their deck in the Browser (Cards â Change Deck).
4. Potential conflicts with other IO/Cloze addâons
You mentioned Clozet and possibly other IO addâons:
These can sometimes interfere with each other or with the oneâbyâone template logic.
Try:
Go to Tools â Addâons.
Disable other IOârelated or clozeârelated addâons temporarily (including Clozet).
Restart Anki and repeat your IOâoneâbyâone workflow on a test image.
If it suddenly works with other addâons disabled, weâve found a conflict. You can then reâenable addâons one at a time to identify the culprit.
5. If possible, can you share one test note?
If youâre comfortable:
In the Browser, rightâclick one of the problematic IO notes â Export Notes (include note type).
Upload that small .apkg in this topic.
With that, itâs much easier to see if itâs:
A noteâtype template issue,
A missing field name, or
A deck/scheduling issue.
If youâd like, reply with:
A screenshot of Tools â Manage Note Types â AnKing IO One by One â Cards⌠(showing the front template), and
What the card count says on the Add window right after you click Accept occlusions.
From there I can give you very specific âclickâbyâclickâ steps to fix it.
