Yesterday I noticed that i dont have the Lecture Notes (where i had a lot of my own content) set in the webpage settings as a protected field. So i thought, lets check the box just to be extra safe.
Today i realized all of the stuff in these field got deleted. There is nothing in any Lecture Notes field.
Was this suppossed to happen?
I guess i can get the content back by restoring backup, but will it happen again? And can i both restore backup and keep reviews i did after?
Thanks
I made some digging and realized I still had the Special Fileds addon (https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1102281552) active. Maybe they fought eachother with AnkiHub about protecting the field and it ended up like this?
I restored the old deck with notes from backup, exported the deck, went back to the active profile and imported the old deck to keep the Lecture notes (it worked and i still have the reviews after the backup).
Now i synced with ankihub and with ankiweb and everything seems to be working, the Lecture notes are still there.
Now I have: disabled the Special Fields addon + have the Lecture notes ticked in AnkiHub webpage
I will update if anything will change.
I don’t think the Special Fields add-on can has a role in this, but let us know if you see the issue again.
FWIW: the Special Fields addon isn’t necessary to protect fields with Ankihub any longer; the functionality is built into ankihub.net and the addon
The current recommended method for protecting a field is this: Managing Protected Fields
That being said, ‘lecture notes’ is never written to by Ankihub so it is de facto protected by default, whether or not you manually elect to protect it. The same is true of the missed questions field.
Please let me know if that answers your question, and if there’s anything else I can help with.
