Hi Kcarter,

What you’re seeing is normal behavior in Anki. Decks are sorted alphabetically, which can lead to what appears to be “missing” numbered subdecks.

In Anki, when decks contain numbers, they are sorted in text order rather than numerical order. This means “10” comes before “8” alphabetically because the first character “1” comes before “8”.

From your screenshot, I can see the Public Health deck has subdecks numbered 1, 10, 2, etc. They’re all there, but they’re being displayed in alphabetical order rather than numerical order.

If you prefer to see your decks in numerical order, you can add leading zeros to single-digit numbers. For example, rename your decks to:

  • “01 - [Topic]”
  • “02 - [Topic]”
  • …
  • “10 - [Topic]”

This way, Anki will display them in the numerical order you expect.

This isn’t an AnkiHub-specific issue but rather how Anki handles deck ordering by default. All your cards are still there - they’re just organized alphabetically rather than numerically.

Would you like any further clarification on deck organization in Anki?

Hello,

The correct tags for the Public Health tag for First Aid Step 1 is the one below:

Please follow these steps to solve this issue:

  1. Reset your local changes using this tutorial: How to Reset Local Changes
  2. On the Browse screen, go to Notes > Clear Unused Tags.

If the tags still don’t match the screenshot I sent you, you might have some cards from older versions of the AnKing Step deck or other non-official AnKing Decks.

Let me know how it goes :blush:

Hello,

I do have these as shown in your screenshot. However, if you click on the first subdeck i.e 01.Observational studies the subtopic decks numbered 03, 04, 06, 08 and 10 are missing.

It’s the case with some other subdecks too that I’ve done the cards for.

Where can I find the cards for those subtopics?

Oh, sorry for the misunderstanding. These subtags are missing for me, too. I will notify the deck maintainers so we can figure out what’s happening. For now, there’s nothing you need to do, as the most up-to-date version of the deck is missing these tags. I will get back to you as soon as I have any news about it! :blush:
