We decided after discovering the old note type was broken, and there is still no official timeline for when updating note types would become available it was in the best interest of all our users to make a new deck with the proper note types and do away with the old deck.
We will be looking closely at the old deck to try and help all subscribers successfully transition to this deck.
- Now that there are many new fields we will need your help to make sure all content ends up in the right field.
- Please double-check your settings and protect your personal fields and tags!
A new development brought to our attention:
An issue that we did not have when test-running the Deck/Note update. I recently requested “Lecture Notes” and “Missed Questions” to default as protected fields when subscribing to the deck (so users don’t have to manually do so). Since then users transitioning to the new deck from the old may see Savarese duplicated into their “Lecture Notes” field. This has to do with the protection of “Lecture Notes” correlating with the old “Savarese/notes” field. LN are in fact empty on the new note (on AnkiHub). So this only affects old users transitioning. There are a couple of options to clear this up:
- Batch edit and remove everything in the lecture notes field
or - Unprotect “Lecture Notes” on AnkiHub → “Reset local changes” on the “OMM for COMLEX” deck notes → re-protect “Lecture Notes” on AnkiHub
- If you have personal content in the lecture note fields on some cards you could use this to your advantage by adding the “AnkiHub_protect::Lecture_Notes” tag to those cards and then follow step 2
